Snoop Dogg’s next NBC gig is a holiday party in a hotel suite, and Martha Stewart made the guest list. “Christmas With Snoop” airs December 2 at 10 p.m. on NBC, with Peacock carrying it the following day, according to Variety.
The idea is simple. Snoop gathers friends and loved ones in a plush suite, the cameras roll on the festivities, and the night gets broken up with appearances and musical performances.
Jamie Foxx is coming, and he’s bringing his daughter Anelise along. October London, the soul singer Snoop signed to Death Row Records, is booked too, as is Jane Handcock.
The rest of the lineup runs well past Snoop’s usual music circle. Wayne Brady, Kristin Chenoweth, Adam Devine, Craig Robinson, Nicole Scherzinger and Gwen Stefani are all on the bill, pulling in comedy, pop and Broadway under one roof.
Stewart’s spot feels like the least surprising booking of all. She and Snoop have been an unlikely double act for years, and back in 2016 they talked Christmas traditions on VH1’s “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party.”
Snoop isn’t just the host here. He’s executive producing alongside Sara Ramaker through Death Row Pictures, while Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay serve as executive producers for Jesse Collins Entertainment.
That credit matters more than it might look. Death Row Pictures signed a multiyear creative partnership with NBCUniversal in 2025 covering film, television, sports entertainment and streaming, which gives the relationship a lot more room than the occasional guest spot.
The Christmas special also slots neatly into Snoop’s growing NBC résumé. He’s coached on “The Voice” and contributed to Olympic coverage in Paris in 2024 and Milan-Cortina earlier this year.
The Paris work paid off in a big way. It earned him two Sports Emmys as part of NBCUniversal’s coverage, including the award for Outstanding Live Special, Championship Event.
There’s another way to read all this. For fans who first met the Long Beach rapper through “Doggystyle” in 1993, watching him become one of network TV’s most dependable faces is a long way from where he started.
Those network assignments have put Snoop in front of audiences far beyond his recording career. Now the network is handing him a holiday special stacked with familiar collaborators, and his own production company gets a seat in the credits.
Death Row Pictures has bigger projects moving too. His life story is headed for theaters with Jonathan Daviss playing Snoop and Craig Brewer directing.
The casting keeps filling in. AllHipHop recently reported that Hercy Miller will play his father Master P, and Cynthia Erivo is set as Afeni Shakur.
Universal Pictures has the biopic dated for August 6, 2027. Before then, Snoop has a hotel suite to fill and a December night on NBC to host.
