It was a case of the Drog
and Snoop Dogg on Wednesday night as Chelsea veteran Didier Drogba kicked back
at the Cannes Film Festival with the legendary rapper.
Less than
24 hours after he sat out Chelsea's shock 3-0 defeat by West Brom at The
Hawthorns, Drogba jetted off to the south of France for the prestigious
event.
After
rubbing shoulders with celebrities such as Paris Hilton and Cara Delevingne on
Tuesday evening, the 37-year-old Ivory Coast forward bumped into Snoop Dogg on
Wednesday night.

The
pair's friendship seems to go back a long way. In fact, Snoop Dogg took to
Twitter to congratulate Drogba and his Chelsea team-mates following their
triumph against Bayern Munich in the Champions League final back in 2012.
Thomas
Mueller's 83rd minute strike put the German giants ahead but Drogba levelled
matters five minutes later before stepping up to take the decisive spot-kick
during the ensuing penalty shoot-out to deliver the European title for the
Blues.
