In a heartwarming encounter that has charmed fans across Canada, 91-year-old Phyllis Ostman experienced a night to remember at Snoop Dogg’s concert in Saskatoon. The self-described “biggest fan” of the iconic rapper was delighted when she had the chance to meet him personally during the event held on Wednesday night.
Ostman, who may not fit the typical image of a Snoop Dogg enthusiast, has been enjoying his music for about 20 years. Her appreciation for the rapper was sparked by a recommendation from Martha Stewart, who praised Snoop as a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. “I found him to be very gentle,” Ostman remarked, reflecting on her admiration for the artist’s character.
The evening took an unforgettable turn when Snoop Dogg himself reached out to Ostman, giving her a warm hug and a kiss on the cheek. “He had a very nice odor of perfume,” she humorously noted, clarifying her earlier comments about “fragments” to those who were unsure of what she meant. To make the night even more special, Snoop gifted her a Death Row chain, a rare token that he doesn’t often distribute.
Ostman’s journey to the concert was facilitated by her niece, who reached out to local radio hosts Rob and Shauna from C95. The duo eagerly organized a memorable experience for Ostman, providing her with a luxurious red carpet service, complete with a limousine ride—a first for the 91-year-old fan. “That was quite shocking because I haven’t been in one before,” she said, expressing her gratitude for the thoughtful arrangements.
As the concert concluded, Ostman left with cherished memories and a new nickname: “Great Aunt Fizzle.” This touching story of intergenerational fandom showcases the power of music to transcend age and connect people from different walks of life, highlighting the joy that artists like Snoop Dogg can bring to their fans.
The event not only entertained but also underscored the sense of community that can form around shared passions, proving that it’s never too late to rock out and enjoy life. For Phyllis Ostman, the night was indeed one she will never forget.
