\n\tOn Tuesday (Aug. 4), the BSB social accounts shared two photos of the encounter \u2014 one of the pair embracing and the other of them shaking hands \u2014 with the caption \u201cIt finally happened\u2026 iykyk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\tThe inside-joke caption is in reference to viral memes dating back to 2024 suggesting that Richardson \u2014 a founding member of the boy band \u2014 \u201clooks like a white Snoop Dogg,\u201d with three side-by-side sets of photos as evidence. Some fans said the comparisons go back even further, recalling that BSB\u2019s Nick Carter and Brian Littrell told Richardson he resembled Snoop when the similarly lanky boy bander sported cornrow braids during the group\u2019s Black & Blue Tour in 2001.

\n\tThe comments section under the new photos of Kevin and Calvin (Snoop\u2019s real name is Calvin Broadus) didn\u2019t disappoint, with *NSYNC\u2019s Lance Bass sharing four clapping emojis on Instagram and Muni Long commenting on Threads, \u201cSo ya\u2019ll was separated at birth or what?\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tIt took Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie<\/em> \u2014 the upcoming sequel to 2023\u2019s Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie<\/em> \u2014 to bring these two look-alike music stars together. Snoop voices the character of Dave in the Aug. 16 movie, while the Backstreet Boys recorded the new song \u201cBottle Up\u201d for the film.<\/p>\n\n

\n\tRichardson and the Backstreet Boys are still in the midst of their residency at the Las Vegas Sphere, with dates set through Aug. 29, while Snoop is currently getting the biopic treatment, with a Universal Pictures film about his life set to hit U.S. theaters next year, on Aug. 6, 2027.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
