Snoop Dogg to be torchbearer for Paris 2024 Olympics
It has been announced that Snoop Dogg will be an Olympic torchbearer during Friday’s opening ceremony in Paris.
Earlier this year, during halftime of Sunday Night Football’s coverage of the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings, it was announced that Snoop Dogg will be helping NBC cover the Olympics Summer Games in 2024. He previously covered the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo, and will now tackle the Summer Games in Paris which takes place from 26 July to 11 August.
Now, it has been announced that he will also be a torchbearer for the opening event, on the final stretch of the walk.
