Snoop Dogg goes ‘snooping around’ the Louvre at the Olympics, says he’s ‘Mona Lisa’s twin brother — Tony Lisa’
The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper got a little culture during his private after-hours tour of the famous Paris museum.
Snoop Dogg continues to delight while making the rounds at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris as a special correspondent for NBC.
On Thursday, the network dropped a clip that showed the rapper getting an art history lesson while taking a private tour of the city’s world-famous Louvre Museum, which famously houses Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa painting.
As he continued “snooping around,” he and his tour guide approached a piece featuring Cupid, the god of love.” The new coach on The Voice said he saw “two ladies in a bed,” one of which was flying away. The guide then noted Cupid’s identity, to which Snoop replied, “Cupid, I knew it was somebody I knew.”
When he was shown another painting, Eugene Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People from 1830, the guide noted that the main figure was wearing what’s called the “revolutionary cap,” which was very similar to the hat Snoop just happened to be sporting at that very moment. “She got on what I got on right now!” he said.

Ever since he arrived at the games, Snoop has cheered on athletes from the sidelines, often in custom shirts bearing their faces, and handed out collectible pins bearing his likeness. He’s not there to compete, but he’s definitely been one of the standouts.
