Snoop Dogg is turning the 2024 Paris Olympics into his own fashion show!
After sporting an Olympics tracksuit as a torchbearer ahead of the July 26 Summer Olympics opening ceremony, the rapper, 52, continued to turn heads with his custom T-shirts during the global sporting event.
While watching the Olympics and providing televised commentary for NBC, Snoop Dogg has worn white shirts featuring popular Team USA Olympians.
So far, the new coach on The Voice has worn shirts featuring the faces of gymnast Simone Biles and tennis star Coco Gauff, who represented Team USA as a flagbearer alongside NBA star LeBron James.

“We‘re giving Snoop Dogg’s shirt a perfect 10,” NBC Sports captioned a video of him in his Biles shirt on Sunday, July 28.
The next day, the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper’s custom Gauff shirt caught the tennis Olympian’s attention. “Snoop has good fashion,” Gauff, 20, wrote in a photo of him in the shirt on her Instagram Stories.
In another slide, Gauff posted a pic of Snoop Dogg with tennis legend Billie Jean King and other athletes, adding overlay text that read, “didn’t get a pic with snoop but I was there in spirit,” referring to her face on his shirt.

“Got something for you, beautiful. This is for you. Great game today. Go, USA,” Snoop Dogg says in the Instagram clip, to which Gauff replies, ”Hey, Mr. Snoop. Thanks for this pin. This is the best pin I’ve ever gotten.”
