The best photos of Snoop Dogg at the 2024 Paris Olympics

Snoop Dogg thinks about the Olympics and the Olympics are on his mind.

The 52-year-old rapper arrived in Paris for the opening ceremony on Friday to take part in some of the pre-match festivities, serving as a torchbearer and cheering on Simone Biles and Coco Gauff from the sidelines. He’s one of Team USA’s biggest fans, but also works as a commentator for NBC. (Just check out his Instagram feed!)

Check out some of the best photos from Snoop’s time in Paris so far, from his custom T-shirts to his coolness on the sidelines.

Before the opening ceremony, Snoop, dressed in a white Olympic tracksuit, carried the torch through the Parisian suburb of Saint-Denis as a torchbearer.

“It was emotional for all of us to see the champion hold that torch and walk out there. This is my own version of it,” Snoop said in a phone interview with NBC sportscaster Mike Tirico about how taking on the role reminded him of the time Muhammad Ali made a surprise appearance to light the Olympic cauldron at the 1996 Atlanta Games, the Washington Post reported. “I don’t want to get too emotional, but I know this is special.”

When it came time to cheer on Team USA during the women’s gymnastics qualifying meets on July 28, Snoop wore a shirt with Simone Biles’ face on it under his personalized jacket.

“We give Snoop Dogg’s shirt a perfect 10,” NBC Sports has subtitled a video from him in the special threads.

Biles put in a great performance that day, despite having twisted her calf during the warm-up. Snoop wasn’t shy about showing his enthusiasm.

King posted a selfie on Instagram and revealed that it was the first time he had met the rapper, despite their shared history.

“We were both born and raised in Long Beach, California and graduated from Long Beach Polytechnic High School,” she wrote. “LBC forever in our hearts.”

On July 29, as temperatures soared in Paris, Snoop tried to stay out of the sun by throwing his jacket over his head during the men’s street skateboarding finals, and he also got a little help from a pocket fan he held in front of his face.
