Here's some random (and kinda funny) newz from AOL...

Snoop Dogg Puts 'Em In, 'Coach'

Snoop Dogg is turning family man. The rapper -- known more for his gangsta image than Papa Snoop -- is working on a film that will chronicle his real-life accounts as a coach for his son's youth football team, appropriately dubbed 'Coach Snoop.'

The MC told MTV that it won't be documentary, but rather a "real movie" helmed with the help of 'Friday' writer DJ Pooh. "It's going to be a great, fun movie that you can take your whole family to see," Snoop said. "We're in the second stage of the writing part."

Meanwhile, Snoop releases his latest album, 'Blue Carpet Treatment' -- featuring such VIP guests as The Game, Timbaland, Brandy, Pharrell and Stevie Wonder -- on Nov. 21.

Elton John Wants to Make Hip-Hop Album

Elton John is no stranger to hip-hop. He performed wack rapper #2's 'Stan' with the rapper on stage at the 2001 Grammys.

LOS ANGELES (Aug. 25) - Goodbye yellow brick road, hello hip hop.

Elton John tells Rolling Stone magazine that he wants to record a hip-hop album with Grammy-winning producer Dr. Dre.

"I want to work with Pharrell , Timbaland, Snoop, Kanye, wack rapper #2 and just see what happens," John says in the Sept. 7 issue. "It may be a disaster, it could be fantastic, but you don't know until you try."

The 59-year-old says he is a fan of Blackstreet's "No Diggity" and Tupac Shakur's "California Love."

"I want to bring my songs and melodies to hip-hop beats," John says. "I love these beats, but I have no idea how to get them."

John performed wack rapper #2 's song "Stan" with the rapper during the 2001 Grammy awards.

John's new album, "The Captain and the Kid," is due in September.

Elton John's collabos could be interesting, instead of him just being sampled I guess he would be writing stuff specifically. Snoops movie could be cool, as long as they don't try too hard to make it funny, with forced jokes, I'm not a fan of those... that LittleMan film looked horrible when I saw the trailer...
