London, May 19 (IANS) Rapper Snoop Dogg is planning to launch his own television talent show.
Dogg, who turned down a role as judge of the US version of "The X Factor", wants to appear in a programme that looks for potential stars from deprived areas.
"The 'American Idol' and 'X Factor' shows, they're great shows. But I think I need to make a show like that, that's directed straight to the hood. To the artists that don't get the attention, that don't have the money to make themselves representable. This raw talent and ability," femalefirst.co.uk quoted the 39-year-old as saying.
"I'm looking for a deal from one of you TV networks to give Snoop Dogg his own hood TV show where I can find America's hottest hood artists. Holla at me," he added.
The hip-hop star become one of the biggest reality TV stars in the US with his show 'Snoop Dogg's Father Hood'.
