Snoop Dogg really wants to be CEO of Twitter

Add one more person to the list of candidates vying for the vacant CEO role at Twitter: Snoop Dogg.

On Thursday, Twitter announced Dick Costolo would step down from the top role at the social network. Co-founder Jack Dorsey will take his place on an interim basis.

Meanwhile, the rapper formally expressed his interest in the job through — where else? — Twitter.

It's also quite clear Snoop has his priorities in check:

Snoop launched his campaign with the hashtags #SnoopforCEO and #ifSnoopwasTwitterCEO, which prompted some amazing responses:

Wall Street will be thrilled to know that, as Twitter CEO, Snoop would have his mind on his money and his money on his mind. Let's just hope his plans for boosting Twitter growth don't go up in smoke.
