Here a bit of insight into Snoop Dogg’s youngest child.
“I regret not being there when my baby girl was born,” he said.
“I was there for both of my boys.
I was out and about, ripping and running, doing too much.
The precautions I take now are because of her.”
He added that the poignant experience helped him realize how important Cori is to him.
Having a daughter enabled Snoop to reflect on some of the misogynistic elements of gangsta rap.
“Women are getting empowered … Now I have a daughter, I understand,” he said.
“When I didn’t have a daughter, I didn’t understand.
I was speaking from the mind of a young adolescent.”
These days, Cori and Snoop are super close.
Snoop is, however, a tad overprotective of his daughter.
It can lead to skin problems, kidney dysfunction, and neurological issues.
Being so young, Broadus found it difficult to adjust to being a sick child.
“I really didn’t even know what was happening to me,” she toldTeen Voguein 2023.

I’m like, why am I the only one that looks like this?”
Throughout her health struggles, she was supported by her parents.
As a child, Cori experienced hair loss, so she often wore scarves.
“I would put a scarf on her,” Shante toldW Magazine.
In 2023, Cori opened up about her chronic illness toPeople.
“But then there’s days I’m like, ‘Wow, I wish I wasn’t sick.
What would my life be if I was just a normal girl?’
It’s part of being human.”

In 2021, Cori Broadus attempted suicide.
She subsequently used her large social media platform to destigmatize mental health issues.
“Having lupus really made me struggle with my confidence,” she told Teen Vogue.
“My weight fluctuates to this day …
I have rashes sometimes.
My hair falls out sometimes.”
“I feel like there’s no perfect body,” she reflected.
“What some may see as flaws, others will see as beautiful traits.
But it matters most how you feel, and you should love yourself no matter what.
Hey, it is what it is.”

I’m not stressed out.
I don’t got anxiety.”
