As a passionate follower of sports and music, I must say that Snoop Dogg’s participation in the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics has been nothing short of extraordinary! The way he immersed himself in the spirit of Team USA, showcasing his unwavering support for various athletes, is truly commendable.


Snoop Dogg just updated his Olympics resume with yet another role: Closing Ceremony performer. 

Following an outstanding performance at the Paris Olympics in 2024, the rapper—who had been a NBC Olympics Special Correspondent—returned to his hometown California to prepare for the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028. The transition was signified by H.E.R. singing the National Anthem, followed by Simone Biles and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass holding the Olympic flag. In a surprising turn of events, Tom Cruise then sprinted onto the Stade de France, grabbed the flag, and soared it over to Hollywood.

Following electrifying shows by Red Hot Chili Peppers and Billie Eilish on the sunlit stage at Venice Beach, Snoop commenced his two-track performance on the boardwalk with a rendition of one of his most popular songs, “Drop It Like It’s Hot.”

Later on, Dr. Dre stepped onto the stage as Snoop Lion weaved through the crowd: As Snoop moved among the audience, Dr. Dre came up on stage. This marked the end of the presenters’ segment at the ceremony, and they performed “The Next Episode” together – an apt choice to herald the Olympics coming to Los Angeles.

It was particularly suitable that Snoop had a significant role in the Olympics Closing ceremony, not just due to his California background. In fact, his involvement in the 2024 Paris Olympics, marked by carrying the torch—a performance worthy of a medal.
