\n\tAfter facing controversy for slamming the inclusion of a same-sex couple in Disney\u2019s 2022 movie Lightyear, Snoop Dogg<\/a> has changed his tune.<\/p>\n \n\tThe rapper, hip-hop icon and business mogul has teamed with GLAAD<\/a> to back Spirit Day, an annual initiative that rallies thousands of celebrities, influential voices, media outlets, studios, brands, corporations, sports teams, tech leaders and more to wear purple and show support for LGBTQ youth. This year\u2019s installment takes place today, Oct. 16, and finds Snoop showing his support by wearing purple while having a conversation with The Voice<\/a> contestant Jeremy Beloate, an out member of the LGBTQ community who competed on Team Snoop on the NBC reality series.<\/p>\n \n\tSnoop and Beloate talk about their friendship since meeting on The Voice and tease new music. Beloate tells Snoop about his own experience with bullying as a kid while sharing advice he has for others who might be experiencing the same. <\/p>\n \n\tSnoop has taken his support a step further by collaborating with Beloate on a new song titled \u201cLove is Love\u201d that is featured in a new episode of Snoop\u2019s animated children\u2019s series Doggyland on YouTube. Beloate voices a puppy named Zippy that joins the Doggyland family to sing about love. The cast of characters is led by the Snoop-voiced Bow Wizzle, a main character that serves as the adult mentor.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cOur parents are different. No two are the same but the one thing that\u2019s for certain is the love won\u2019t change. Families are special. They are so unique. Everybody\u2019s got a purpose more than what you see. We love you parents. We love you so,\u201d sing the pups as a series of same-sex families appear onscreen with their pups.<\/p>\n
