Pam Grier is giving fans what they want. The 75-year-old revealed that Snoop Dogg is actually a great kisser. During her recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, the Them: The Scare actress swooned over her Bones costar. “Oh my God, and he can smooch!” she recalled. Grier then looked over to Hudson, smirking. “Let me tell ya, let me tell ya,” she added.
The “Bones” Connection
The 2001 Ernest Dickerson-directed film Bones centers around Jimmy Bones (Snoop Dogg), who returns from the dead to avenge his death. The aftermath of his death is told from the vantage point of his girlfriend, Pearl (Grier), two decades later. Bones paid homage to the start of Grier’s legendary career in blaxploitation genre films.
Back in January, Snoop appeared on Hudson’s show and claimed he fainted when he first met Grier. “Pam Grier walked up and just sat right next to me and started talking. My heart beat fast, yeah, my heart beat fast. So I’m like, ‘Okay, I hear what you’re saying. Pam, give me a minute.’ I go to the bathroom and faint. I fainted, I’m laying on the ground. My security comes in there like, ‘Get off this nasty floor. Man, what are you doing?’ I looked up, and I said, ‘I just met Pam Grier,’” said the rapper.
Pam Grier and Snoop Dogg Lifelong Friendship
Grier reacted to the tidbit on her episode. “When he told me that, I said, ‘Oh my God, I’m glad he didn’t hurt himself,’” she stated. Grier shared how she and Snoop have “been friends forever” and “always supported each other’s art.” She added, “He’s a genius. You’re a genius when you employ hundreds of people in your career.”
Grier also mentioned the incident during the April 17 “After Show” episode of Watch What Happens Live. “He’s such a lovely person, I just couldn’t imagine him lying in urine,” she told host Andy Cohen. Grier recalled how Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, and Xzibit went to her house in Denver for breakfast when they were in town for a concert. Grier said she and her mother “take care of peeps.”
Later in the segment, Grier revealed that Foxy Brown has been optioned to become her life story told in three acts. “It can’t be a seven-hour movie, but it will be a limited series. Seven episodes, shot like a film, of my life,” she shared. No other details have been announced.
Grier currently stars alongside Luke James and Deborah Ayorinde in Them: The Scare on Prime Video.
