Snoop Dogg is gearing up to take on an NBC commentator role at the 2024 Paris Olympics next month. Why not start a 200m dash with some of the best athletes in the world? The Death Row Records boss personally participated in a 200-meter test run in Oregon over the weekend.
Snoop Dogg wore a Team USA jersey honoring the late Kobe Bryant and paired it with American flag-themed pants during a game against the NBA on Sunday (June 23) Ato Boldon and Wallace Spearmon compete. Snoopy’s competition eventually made him disappear (no pun intended). Snoopy finished in third place with a time of 34.44 seconds. But Snoop was still happy with his time, saying: “34.44 for a 52-year-old? Not bad.

Snoop Dogg returned to commentary shortly after taking a breather, delivering his colorful commentary during the obstacle course as part of the broadcast.
“Oh, he’s jumping on top of the railing,” he said. “Can you do that?! That’s a cool trick. I love that one. Off the top.”
Snoop Dogg initially went viral when he commented on the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, specifically the equestrian events, alongside Kevin Hart. During the Paris Olympics, he finally got to see a “lame” horse. Last month, he told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that he was looking forward to seeing the horse perform.
“I’m going to meet this horse in real life,” Snoop Dogg revealed. “He’s the returning champion. So I have to go see him – you know what I’m saying?
