Snoop Dogg has made possibly the coolest piece of Olympics merch – and it’s getting the attention it deserves.

Snoop Dogg has been a breakout star of the Paris 2024 Olympics as he proudly carried the Olympic torch through Saint-Denis and is a special correspondent for NBC.

Although some have been confused by this side quest from the star, many have been delighted to see him at the games and adding a fun je ne sais quoi to the games.

In celebration of his association with the games, a pin was made in his honour.

The silver pin showed an image of the Drop It Like It’s Hot rapper wearing his trademark glasses, and a blue tracksuit while blowing out smoke rings in the colours matching the iconic Olympic rings.

The pin also showed the Eiffel Tower in the background with the word Paris etched on the side.

Snoop, whose real name is Calvin Broadus Jr, gave US athlete and tennis star Coco Gauff one of these pins in an exchange documented on Instagram.

A video in collaboration with the United States Tennis Association, Team USA, Snoop Dogg and the Women’s Tennis Association showed the rapper wearing a T-shirt with Coco on it.

In the video, the rapper held a pin to the camera and said: ‘Hey Coco, its big Snoop Dogg. I have something for you beautiful. This is for you… Go USA.’

The tennis star happily received the pin and replied in the same video: ‘Hey Mr Snoop. Thank you for this pin, this is the best pin.’

She then showed off the pin on her Instagram story with a caption that read: ‘I win the pin game!’

Although the artist’s public persona has been built around his use of cannabis, he told Time, that he had no intention of smoking marijuana – which is illegal in Paris – while he was attending the Olympic Games.

‘I’m a very legal guy,’ he said. ‘I plan on going out there and doing NBC Olympic work. Being clean as a book, clean as the athletes. 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.’
