Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg is bringing his classic style to NBC’s coverage of the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Throughout the Games, he will export iconic landmarks, attend competitions and get a chance to talk with the athletes.
Who better to bear the Olympic torch on its last leg, than the one who knows how to 'Drop It Like It's Hot'? Hip-hop icon Snoop Dogg will carry the Olympic flame on Friday through the streets of Saint-Denis, the town's mayor Mathieu Hanotin announced earlier this morning. 'Saint-Denis, the final stop before the Eiffel Tower. An international cast @SnoopDogg for the final journey of the Olympic flame,' Hanotin wrote.
m. ET. After relaying through Greece, the torch arrived at the French port of Marseille on May 8. It has since passed through different regions of France and will arrive at the Seine ahead of the opening ceremony, scheduled for 1:30 ET on Friday. Snoop will mark the 67th leg of the flame's journey. He will be joined by French actress Laetitia Casta and French rapper MC Solaar, among others.
