Snoop Dogg Gives Parental Advice To Beyonce And Jay-Z

Rap superstar SNOOP DOGG has offered newlyweds BEYONCE and JAY-Z some words of advice for a happy marriage - start a family.

The hip hop star - real name Calvin Broadus Jr. - insists the superstar couple should snub their careers and concentrate on producing a brood of children.

He tells People.com, "I told them to go home and make babies. They should, that's the next step as far as marriage, having kids ... add on to the family, so hopefully that's what they'll do."

But the rapper, who has three children with wife of ten years Shante, isn't taking his own advice on board - insisting he isn't keen on the idea of adding to his family.

When asked if he was planning another tot, he says, "No. I'm good."

And his views on the secrets of a successful marriage: "Communication, and being able to fight and get back up. To have misunderstanding and (then) get some understanding."

Broadus is father to 13-year-old Corde, Cordell, 11, and Cori, eight.
