Street cred: Diaz, appearing to promote The Green Hornet, says her Long Beach, California high school 'was rough'Speaking about the 39-year-old rapper, whose fondness for the drug has been well documented over the years, Diaz said: 'We went to high school together, he was a year older than me.'
Claims: Rapper Snoop Dogg was a year ahead of Diaz in school'He was very tall and skinny and wore lots of ponytails in his hair and I'm pretty sure I got weed from him. I had to have!'
Referring to an earlier conversation about her environmentally-friendly Prius, Diaz joked: 'I was green even in high school!'
The 38-year-old told host George Lopez that it was her early 'claim to fame,' before making a name for herself.
Both Snoop Dogg, real name Cordozar Calvin Broadus, and Diaz attended school in Long Beach, California.
The Shrek star, appearing to promote her new action film The Green Hornet, says her school wasn't for the faint-hearted.
'High school was pretty rough,' she told Lopez.
'Anytime you heard the locker slam and you’d turn and there was a girl taking off her earrings, she’s pulling her hair back in a ponytail and she's taking all her friends’ rings and coming at you like this.
'"It was like "OK, everybody get back" and you'd be wondering "Is she coming at me?"
'I used to get in fights with boys more than girls, for some reason boys liked to fight me.
