Snoop Dogg 'tax debts' revealed

Snoop Dogg allegedly owes the state of California nearly £200,000 in back taxes.

A tax lien filed against the 36-year-old claims that he owes £195,899, according to TMZ.

The rapper, who was reportedly unable to finish a collaboration with Amy Winehouse last year because the pair became too stoned, is apparently being eyed to host this year's MOBO awards in Glasgow.

Producers have lined up the rapper despite a ban which forbids the Ego Trippin' hitmaker from entering the UK due to a fracas at Heathrow in 2006.
