Snoop Dogg showed up for "The Late Show With David Letterman" at the Ed Sullivan Theater this week rocking a red athletic jumpsuit, a varsity jacket boasting his initials, and -- hold up -- a shower cap? Apparently, it was to protect all the product in his hair (oooookay?), although that doesn't manage to stop us from scratching our own heads about this wacky style choice.
The thing is, once you wear a monochromatic tracksuit, you immediately lodge yourself in dangerous territory, considering it brings to mind several things, including Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester on "Glee" and the elderly (and it doesn't help that his sunglasses resemble the same wraparound frames that our Nana wore after her cataracts treatment). But throw on a shower cap, and now you've entered a brave new world, one that elicits images of both adorable babies in bathtubs and the mustachioed middle-aged ladies who sling those gloppy mashed potatoes onto your tray in junior high.
That being said, obviously Snoop did something right, considering his performance of "Boom" got a lot of white folks to clap their hands all at the same time! Together!
