Wearing his new yellow and green Norwich City top, Snoop Dogg delivered a greatest hits set inside the packed, sweaty In New Music We Trust tent at Radio 1's Big Weekend.

Shortly after belting out Drop it Like It's Hot, Snoop told the crowd "I love the UK."

He also referenced the UK ban he was given in 2007 telling the crowd: "They can never ban me from the UK."

He was cautioned on suspicion of affray at Heathrow Airport.

It was after he was stopped from entering a first class lounge in 2006.

However, Snoop Dogg revealed the ban had been lifted on CNN's Larry King Live programme, external.

The star said a judge "found me to be innocent and now I'm able to go back there".

Henry, 15 from Suffolk, thought Snoop was "epic and brilliant".

His brother, 18-year-old Ed, said: "He's world famous and just being here in little old Norwich is insane."

Ed was also "really impressed" that Snoop Dogg was wearing a Norwich City top on stage.

The team play Middlesbrough in the Championship play-off final at Wembley on Monday.

"I love the fact he's got a Norwich shirt on," said 21-year-old Imogen from Hemel Hempstead.

"I'm new to Norwich and a new supporter so it's exciting he's got that on."

Imogen's friend Naima told Newsbeat: "My friends went to Parklife last time and this is so much better."

The 23-year-old from Bristol, who now lives in Suffolk, added: "It's so nice that it's just down the road. It's made my year."
