In what resulted in the most unlikely celebrity photo ever, Snoop Lion and Tony Bennett have signed on for the cause of Voices against Violence, a gun control activist group.

"Voices against violence. Me n tony Bennett the great on a mission for peace," Lion wrote. Bennett also talked on hanging with Snoop.

"Snoop Lion (‪@SnoopDogg) just added his voice! Raise your voices with us," he wrote.

Snoop Lion, though he is one of the world's most famous former Crips, has recently denounced violence as part of a conversion to Rastafarianism that resulted in a documentary and reggae album, both titled Reincarnated.

The first single off his new album was called "No Guns Allowed," so this hardline stance on gun control shouldn't come as a shock.

Tony Bennett wanting gun control isn't much of a shock either, but mostly because I don't think anyone has ever associated Bennett with gun violence.

Check out a video of Lion and Bennett hanging out and talking about the Voices Against Violence campaign over on Snoop's Pheed.

On the about section of their website VAV describes themselves as "the voice of the people" and vows to "not be silent as gun violence continues to devastate our communities."

They provide ways for those in favor of gun control to contact Senators and push for stricter regulations.

What do you think about Snoop Lion and Tony Bennett hanging out? Are you surprised that Snoop is for gun control?
