In an interview clip shared by Entertainment Tonight on Instagram, Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter shared that he invited Snoop to check out the group’s immersive Sphere show. “I said, ‘When you get a chance, you want to come to see the show at the Sphere?'” Carter recalled. “And he goes, ‘Man, I live in Vegas.’ I was like, ‘OK.’ I didn’t realize that!” Snoop apparently didn’t need much convincing. According to Carter, the rapper responded, “You can come on by,” opening the door for the Backstreet Boys to potentially pay him a visit while they’re both in Sin City. The exchange happened during the Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie premiere, where the Backstreet Boys and Snoop were connected through the film. Snoop voices Dave in the animated film, while the group contributed the song “Bottle Up” to its soundtrack. The Backstreet Boys’ Into the Millennium residency launched at Sphere in July 2025 and has become a major Las Vegas draw. The residency has already surpassed 35 sold-out performances for 575,000 fans. The current summer run includes shows through Aug. 29, and additional shows have been announced for New Year’s Eve and early 2027. Of course, Snoop’s potential visit to Sphere wasn’t the only memorable interaction to come out of the premiere. AJ McLean pointed out that the event was another opportunity for fans to see Kevin Richardson and Snoop together: Two stars who have been constantly compared to one another online for their striking resemblance. “That’s actually not true, I met him at an award show years ago,” Richardson clarified when McLean said it had been over 30 years since they were together on a red carpet. McLean then noted that the world simply hadn’t seen the two together in quite this way before. So, does Richardson understand why fans have dubbed him and the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper doppelgängers? “I understand where they’re coming from,” Richardson said. “Like, especially the side views and stuff like that. I get it. I love Snoop, man.” Brian Littrell also recalled a funny conversation he had with Snoop about Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie . The rapper jok
