Snoop Dogg has revealed that he once smoked marijuana in a White House toilet.

The rapper - who is well known for his use of the drug - told Jimmy Kimmel on Snoop Dogg's GGN News that he lit up whilst inside the famous US presidential building.

He said: "[I've smoked] in the bathroom [of the White House]. Not in the White House, but in the bathroom.

"I said [to the security guards], 'May I use the bathroom for a second?'. And they said, 'What are you gonna do, number one or number two?'. I said, 'Number two'. So I said, 'Look, when I do the number two, I usually, you know, have a cigarette or light something to get the aroma right'.

Dogg concluded: "And they said, 'Well you know what? You can light a piece of napkin.' I said, 'I'll do that'."
