Snoop Dogg‘s rapping on Katy Perry’s “California Gurls” has helped to make the catchy song one of the summer’s hottest tunes already, and Snoop had only good things to say about Perry on the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday.

“Off the hook -- she’s amazing, she’s a great artist, she’s fun to be around,” he gushed.

So now that he’s gotten to know Perry, what would he give her and Russell Brand for their wedding gift?

“A dog,” he said. “And I’d name it Snoop.”
