Snoop Dogg And Wiz Khalifa Get Highed Up For ‘High School’

A

What a year Wiz Khalifa has had already! To add to the excitement, the movie Wiz is supposedly doing with Snoop Dogg, ‘High School’, has stoners and clean cut hip hop fans alike anticipating it’s arrival. Unfortunately, you might have heard filming was cut for the production of the film at a local high school due to misconduct. According to Wooha-

Now two types of dogs have been allowed on Mira Costa High School’s campus – one that sniffs out drugs and one that indulges in them.

The latter, rapper Snoop Dogg, likely won’t be on campus again anytime soon. On Tuesday, school officials canceled the filming of his new movie at Mira Costa and decided not to accept facility use fees for the project.

The decision came two days after Snoop Dogg – the poster boy for pot smoking – and fellow rapper Wiz Khalifa were filming their new movie, “High School,” around the campus.

Several students posed with him during the Sunday filming, later posting the photos on Facebook. A photo of Vice Principal Paula Spence with the rapper also ended up on Facebook, a teacher said.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Khalifa said of the movie, “It’s about pot, of course.”

The teacher, who wanted to remain anonymous, said a video popped up on YouTube showing Snoop Dogg sitting on a desk in a Mira Costa classroom singing a song about having sex with mothers.

“It’s in a Costa classroom. It’s recognizable because of the stuff on the wall,” the teacher said.

Whoa! Snoop we know you might be an OG, but even someone as cool and influential as you has to follow the rules sometimes. What say you, ProHipHop reader? Do you think this movie is something you’d wanna watch when your stoned with the munhies? Lets hear your thoughts in the comments!

Jon Stewart Tears Steve Jobs a New Apphole

Jon Stewart's the best and I appreciate him doing a piece on the stolen iPhone fiasco.  He says what I feel and this certainly isn't the first time.

Interesting point near the end about the potential for Steve Jobs to go Howard Hughes.  Given how they've hidden his medical conditions in the past, that's a pretty potent focus for future rumors.

Robert Townsend – Why We Laugh

Robert Townsend's documentary Why We Laugh: Black Comedians on Black Comedy is due on DVD April 27th.

From the press release:

"Directed by noted actor-producer-director Robert Townsend ('Hollywood Shuffle'), the documentary, which originally screened at Sundance in 2009 in the Premiere section, features interviews with prominent scholars, politicians, cultural critics, and a host of notable comics, including Bill Cosby, Chris Rock, Keenan Ivory Wayans, Steve Harvey, and Katt Williams."

"]Why We Laugh' tracks the evolution of black comedy from the character of Stepin Fetchit and minstrels in blackface to the politically tinged humor of Dick Gregory, and from the television success of Good Times and The Jeffersons to the big-screen accomplishments of stars such as Eddie Murphy and Whoopi Goldberg. The film also turns a perceptive eye on the controversial career decision of Dave Chappelle and the implications of corporate efforts to capitalize on the massive success of Russell Simmons's Def Comedy Jam and Spike Lee's The Original Kings of Comedy."
