Snoop Dogg vying for MasterChef role

A new contender has emerged in the race to replace Gregg Wallace on MasterChef, and it's none other than US rapper Snoop Dogg. After Gregg stepped down from the BBC show amidst allegations of historical misconduct, Snoop Dogg has publicly expressed his interest in taking on the role.

Backing from Gordon Ramsay

Snoop Dogg is not going at it alone - he has enlisted the support of his friend and fellow chef Gordon Ramsay. With Gordon's backing, Snoop Dogg believes he has a strong chance of securing the coveted position as a judge on the UK version of MasterChef.

Competition for the role

While Snoop Dogg is a strong contender, he is not the only one eyeing the role. Other names in the mix to replace Gregg Wallace include Gino D'Acampo, James Martin, Nigella Lawson, and Joe Swash, who recently showcased his cooking skills on Celebrity MasterChef.

It remains to be seen who will ultimately fill Gregg Wallace's shoes on MasterChef, but one thing is for sure - the competition is heating up in the world of culinary television.
