Snoop Dogg is swiftly becoming the unexpected icon of the 2024 Paris Olympics, injecting new energy into the international sports competition that is captivating Paris and the Internet alike.
The Drop It Like It's Hot rapper has rarely missed an opportunity to cheer on Team USA, spectating Simone Biles in the Gymnastics, carrying the Olympic torch in the epic opening ceremony, and even receiving a swimming lesson from former Olympic legend Micahel Phelps.
In his latest bid to indulge in the Olympic fanfare, the star made an unexpected appearance in a full equestrian uniform.
