Snoop Dogg Lands Correspondent Gig for Paris Olympics
Snoop Dogg’s latest gig is taking him to Paris. The legendary hip-hop figure is set to join NBC Sports as an Olympics correspondent for the upcoming Paris Games.
When asked why he took on the role, the West Coast legend told TIME, “Why not? Not why. This is what I do. You know what I’m saying?”
The Death Row Records boss explained, “I love being in front of the people. I love sports. I know what I'm talking about. The network is appealing enough to understand that we deserve each other. So we’re gonna make magic.”
Snoop is taking his new role extremely seriously and is even putting a pause on his usual cannabis activities while on the clock.
“I plan on going out there and doing NBC Olympic work. Being clean as a book, clean as the athletes,” the rapper said. “They can test me if they want to. I’m going to be out there doing what I’m supposed to be doing to make sure I bring home the gold. Which is me.”
This opportunity follows the 52-year-old’s successful Olympic commentary with Kevin Hart during the last Summer Games in Tokyo in 2021.
