Legendary US rapper,Snoop Dogg will be a torchbearer at the Paris Olympics ahead of the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony will take place on Friday, with over 10,000 athletes gathering on boats on the Seine River.

Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., will perform the honor on Friday, with French actress Laetitia Casta and French rapper MC Solaar carrying the torch as well.

The 52-year-old Snoop Dogg will also contribute to NBC’s coverage of the Olympics, and detailed his love of the Games in a December statement to the network.

‘I grew up watching the Olympics and am thrilled to see the incredible athletes bring their A-game to Paris,’ he said.

‘It’s a celebration of skill, dedication, and the pursuit of greatness.’

After Snoop Dogg carries the torch before the opening ceremony, Lebron James will be the flagbearer for Team USA.
