Snoop Dogg is launching his own Executive Branch cigar range in the US.

The 'Drop it like it's Hot' star is planning to sell the cigars - which he claims are of a higher quality than most standard brands - for 50 cents each.

Snoop Dogg has reportedly been arrested for cannabis possession.

The 'Sweat' rapper - who has been jailed on numerous occasions over drug and firearm possession charges in the past - had his tour bus stopped by law enforcement officers at a border patrol checkpoint in the small Texan town of Sierra Blanca over the weekend, TMZ.com reports.
