Snoop Doggis going all out for his daughterCori Broadus' wedding!

While appearing alongside Cori onThe Jennifer Hudson Showon Tuesday, Dec. 2, the rapper, 53, was asked to share the “most over-the-top gift” he’s ever given his daughter.

“You know what? It’s the truth, but the only thing about this gift is she never got to open it or she hasn’t opened it yet,” theVoicecoach cryptically replied, before revealing his lavish present.

“It was a million dollars for her wedding,” he continued, as the audience began clapping and cheering and Cori, 25, said while grinning, “That’s right, that’s right!”

Hudson, 43, jokingly responded, “What do you ask for afterthat?” Oh, my goodness!"

Snoop then jumped in to explain that if it were up to him, the wedding would be a more scaled-down affair so the money could be saved. “I told her if it was me, my wedding would have been $100 [thousand] and $900 [thousand] would have gone in my pocket,” he said.

“Daddy is still teaching lessons, I’ll tell you that,” Hudson declared, with a laugh.

Snoop’s comment that Cori — whom he shares with wifeShante Broadus— has yet to open her gift appears to be a reference to the fact that her wedding to fiancé Wayne Duece was postponed after sheexperienced a “severe” strokein January.
