As if starring in Boss’n Up wasn’t enough, word on the street is that Snoop Dogg is penning a novel called Love Don’t Live Here No More that is due out in October. Hopefully his storytelling will be better than his acting, but I somehow get the feeling that it won’t.

The director of publicity at Atria Books says, “Books speak more to a female audience than his music, so these novels give [Snoop Dogg] an opportunity to show, particularly to his female fans, another side.”

What side would that be? Blinged-out cheeba-smokin’ pimp? We’ve already seen him do that. What else is there?
