Does Snoop Dogg have his mind on the Olympics and the Olympics on his mind?

There’s news that the “Gin and Juice” rapper Snoop Dogg will be providing on-site reports at the Paris Summer Olympics that kick off in  Paris, France on Fri, Jul 26, 2024, according to NBC.

I have no doubt that Snoop Dogg’s reports will be hysterical, although no doubt watered down so they are safe for broadcast on NBC’s Olympic coverage.

Snoop Dogg, born Calvin Broadus, will provide coverage of what’s going on in Paris, “he’ll explore the city’s iconic landmarks, attend Olympic competitions and events, and visit with the athletes, their friends, and families” according to NBC.

In a statement that screams it was written by a PR professional, Snoop Dogg is quoted as saying “I grew up watching the Olympics and am thrilled to see the incredible athletes bring their A-game to Paris.”

Whether Snoop Dogg really grew up watching the Olympics is up for debate, but he sure does seem pumped to bring his own style to NBC’s Olympic coverage saying “We’re going to have some amazing competitions and, of course, I will be bringing that Snoop style to the mix. Peace and Olympic LOVE, ya dig?”

So there you have it. Snoop Dogg will now be providing in-depth Olympic coverage and color commentary on the Paris Summer Olympics this year in his own unique doggy-style.
