Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus just made a convincing case for most stylish couple at the 2025 BET Awards.
The longtime couple know a thing or two about stepping out in coordinating looks, but their appearance at the star-studded awards show on June 9 took their cred to the next level.
The legendary rapper and his wife, who tied the knot on June 14, 1997, both rocked monochromatic outfits in a bold royal blue hue, meaning they stood out among a sea of stars.
Snoop, 53, opted for a casual sweatshirt, fitted trousers and cool sneakers, and elevated his matching separates with a long jacket and statement necklaces. Shante, also 53, went for a tailored leather blazer and wide-leg trousers which she accessorized with a fedora plus black oversize sunglasses and an Hermès bag.
Together, they posed with Outer Banks actor Jonathan Daviss, who will play the musician in his upcoming Universal biopic, as reported by Deadline on June 9.
Tonight, Snoop Dogg will receive the BET Ultimate Icon Award with fellow recipients Mariah Carey, Jamie Foxx and Kirk Franklin.

“You learn as time goes by, ‘OK, you are in control. You run this, you run that, because I make bad decisions.’ The good to my bad is her,” he said.
Ultimately, what makes their connection stronger is the support they show one another. “Over the years she’s grown with me to know what I do and how I do it and to give me the space to do it,” he added of Shante. “The things that she helped me with is patience, understanding what family is, making time for family and not making excuses.”
