Snoop Dogg: Team USA’s Top Fan at the 2024 Paris Olympics – Highlights

Team USA boasts millions of fans, but Snoop Dogg might just be their biggest one. Throughout the 2024 Paris Olympics, Snoop has been everywhere, spreading joy and cheering on athletes.

The rapper and media personality has been a prominent figure with his black shades and Team USA tracksuits, mingling with everyone from Simone Biles to Martha Stewart.

During the Games, he has been regularly reporting for NBC. This is his second stint as an Olympic correspondent, following his popular role at the Tokyo Games.

Before this year’s festivities began, Snoop announced, “I will be bringing that Snoop style to the mix.” He has certainly lived up to his promise.

The 52-year-old’s unique commentary and Snoop-energy have gone viral, with his Olympic cameos sparking widespread delight.

It’s challenging to pick, but here are some standout Snoop moments so far.

Snoop kicked off the Games strong as one of the torchbearers for Team USA. The rap icon was one of the last to carry the Olympic flame before it reached its final destination at the opening ceremony of the Paris Games. Standing at 6 feet 4 inches, he was hard to miss. He even treated fans to a Crip Walk while making his way to pass the flame.

Pairing the multi-gold-medal-winning gymnast Simone Biles with Snoop was bound to result in magic.

Biles and her teammate Jordan Chiles were seen in an impromptu dance with Snoop during the women’s Olympic gymnastics qualifying round. Spotting him in the crowd, the gymnasts broke out their best moves instantly, turning the interaction into a viral moment.

Snoop even showed his support for Biles at the stadium with a custom-made shirt featuring the gymnast.

A heated badminton match between the U.S. and China gained extra attention thanks to Snoop’s lively commentary.

In a now-viral clip, Snoop’s play-by-play—“They rockin’ and rollin.’ Back and forth. Gimme that. No, I need that. Nope over here. Nope over there”—was a hit, liked by over 340,000 TikTok users.

The two became fast friends over a decade ago after Snoop appeared on Stewart’s cooking show. Since then, they’ve been inseparable, appearing on game shows and Super Bowl commercials together.

During the dressage event, Snoop made up a rap to accompany one horse’s sideway shuffles, drawing laughter from Stewart.

Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps may be retired, but that didn’t stop him from swimming with Snoop. In a video posted by NBC, Snoop is seen swimming with Phelps, wearing a black cap labeled “Phelps.”

“Mike, you make this look too easy,” Snoop says in the clip.

Snoop Dogg was also captured at the Louvre Museum in Paris, vlogging a TikTok video. “You ever seen ‘Night at the Museum’?” Snoop says. “Well, tonight you get to go to the museum with Snoop Dogg.”

In the clip, Snoop strolls through the empty halls of the Louvre, making humorous remarks about various artworks.

At one stop, he shares a playful exchange with Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, humorously claiming to be her twin brother, “Tony Lisa.”
