Snoop Dogg (52), the iconic American rapper and entrepreneur, unexpectedly became one of the brightest stars of the Olympics in Paris. Not only did he appear as a torchbearer during the opening ceremony, but he also took on the role of a special correspondent for the NBC television station, which attracted new viewers to American screens.
Many already knew that his charisma and energy knew no bounds. However, not everyone would have guessed that he can follow and comment on various sports throughout the Olympic Games with complete control and unbridled enthusiasm. The rapper’s passion for sports and his involvement in all kinds of promotional activities amuse people more and more every day.
During the games, Snoop not only reports, but even gets directly involved in the action. For example, he danced with American athletes Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles during gymnastics competitions to show that sport and entertainment can go hand in hand. This moment then circulated on the networks with various undertones of hip-hop songs and won the hearts of viewers.
The musician also tried many sports himself, breakdancing and putting his swimming skills to the test in a special lesson with Olympic champion Michael Phelps. There, Snoop demonstrated his lung power, which people jokingly associated with his well-known love of marijuana.
But fans also enjoy his commentating on matches, as well as cheering and dancing in the stands. Overall, Snoop Dogg proved to be a multi-tasking personality for the US at the Paris Olympics, able to appeal to multiple generations of music and sports fans. His attitude and unforgettable moments at the games contributed to the further visibility of the Olympics and it is certain that he will entertain a lot until the end and probably even after the end of this year’s games.
