CORI Broadus is the daughter of one of the biggest rappers of all time: Snoop Dogg.
Her relationship with her famous dad will be explored in E!'s new show Snoop’s Fatherhood: Cori and Wayne’s Story, which will star the famous family.
A famous dad
Cori was born on June 22, 1999, in California and she is Snoop Dogg's youngest child and only daughter.
She has three other siblings, including Corde, Cordell and her half brother Julian.
Snoop's daughter followed him into music and even made her debut on one of his albums.
She had released music under the names Cori Broadus, Princess Broadus and CHOC.
Cori is the CEO of Choc Factory by CHOC, a beauty, cosmetic and personal care company.
The brand's tagline is "Everyone's beautiful. We make that evident."
Business mogul mom
Cori's mom, Shante Broadus, is Snoop Dogg's high school sweetheart.
Shante and Snoop have been together for decades, despite having a rocky relationship at times.
They met at Long Beach Polytechnic High School and even took each other to prom, before graduating in 1989.
The couple tied the knot on June 14, 1997, two years before having Cori.
Snoop and Shante briefly split in 2004 but they were able to rekindle their romance, because of their kids.
They renewed their vows in 2008 at singer Charlie Wilson's ranch.
In her day-to-day life, Shante runs a music management company named Boss Lady Entertainment.
The company also produces movies and TV shows while renting recording studios for artists including Kendrick Lamar and Cardi B.
Cori's health battle
Snoop and Shante's daughter Cori was diagnosed with Lupus at just six years old and she said that years of taking medication for the illness was making her feel insane.
She told People magazine: “I've had medication since I was 6 years old, depending on these drugs all my life.
So I wanted better for myself.
“I wanted to change because it just became a lot.
"I'm only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day.
So I kind of just went cold turkey.”
“I stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago.
“I'm just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas."
Her battle with the illness caused her hair to fall out which meant she would often wear a scarf.
Snoop and Shante would often wear scarves too, so that she didn't feel alone.
The amazing response they received inspired them to launch a unisex scarf line called The Broadus Collection.

Sadly, Lupus isn't the only health scare that Cori has battled in her life.
On January 18, 2024, Cori took to Instagram to reveal that she had suffered a stroke.
She wrote: "I had a severe stroke this am.
I started breaking down crying when they told me."
She added: "Like I'm only 24 what did I do in my past to deserve all this."
Thankfully, Cori was able to make a recovery and Snoop confirmed that she was "doing a little bit better".
Just months before the stroke, Cori's mental health had declined and a lifetime of health issues led her to attempt suicide.
Love in the air
Cori has been dating Wayne Deuce, a creative director, since 2018.
The couple made their relationship Instagram official just a year later.
Over the Thanksgiving holiday in 2022, they finally got engaged.
Cori has opened up about how she and Wayne "already feel married" and revealed that Justin Bieber would be her dream singer to perform at her wedding.
Snoop's Fatherhood
Cori's life will be explored in the new series Snoop's Fatherhood: Cori and Wayne's Story.
The show will follow Cori and Wayne “as they journey through the ebbs and flows of love, life and new beginnings with friends and family”.
The three part series will kick off December 5, 2024, at 10pm EST and fans can watch the show on E! or Peacock.
