Snoop Dogg has quickly become the USA’s unofficial mascot at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Earlier this year, it was announced that the rapper joined NBC’s team to as one of the official reporters of the games this summer, and has been onsite to deliver “regular reports” on the Olympic Primetime Show.
Snoop was also a torchbearer, carrying the torch through the streets of Saint-Denis, the northern Paris suburb that houses the Stade de France Olympic Stadium, leading up to the opening ceremony on July 26.
For the first weekend of the Olympics, Snoop stepped out custom gold Skechers as he watched Team USA’s men’s swim team win its first gold medal. The Team USA men’s team — Caeleb Dressel, Chris Guiliano, Jack Alexy and Hunter Armstrong — won the 4×100 freestyle relay.
“Gold shoes, gold medal,” Snoop told NBC Sports’ Mike Tirico after the big win. “We got our first gold medal! I felt good being there with the Dressel family, baby. All gold everything.”
He also spent time watching gymnastics, watching Team USA compete in women’s qualifications at Bercy Arena, which ended with Simone Biles and Suni Lee finishing first and second in the all-around, respectively. During the competition, the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” artist sported a t-shirt with Biles’ face on it.
As a result, Snoop Dogg’s appearances have quickly become a fan-favorite part of the Olympics this summer, and we’ve gathered some of the best photos of the star at all the ceremonies, games and events. Check out our gallery below.
