Snoop Dogg Poised to Blaze New Path at NBC’s Olympics: ‘My Preparation for Primetime Is Being Me’

As a film enthusiast and someone who closely follows the world of entertainment, I am absolutely thrilled about Snoop Dogg‘s involvement in NBC’s Olympics coverage this year. His addition to the team is a bold and refreshing move that speaks volumes about NBC’s commitment to reaching out to new audiences.


During NBC’s Olympics broadcast full of unexpected visitors and innovative content, Snoop Dogg could be the biggest shock.

The entrepreneur and former rapper, Calvin Broadus Jr. (better known as Snoop Dogg), is scheduled to provide commentary and add excitement to NBCUniversal’s extensive coverage of the athletic event. His unique perspective will be shared on NBC, Peacock streaming service, Telemundo, and various cable channels for over two weeks. Viewers can expect the unexpected from Snoop Dogg during this sports spectacle.

He assured reporters this week that his readiness for primetime is simply being himself. Feel free to search him up on Google or look him up, as he’s no stranger to fighting and sports events. This is what he excels in, having been in the spotlight since viewers were just learning to swim. Viewers will find that he possesses extensive knowledge of the sport, the perspectives, and the discussions.

Snoop Dogg’s inclusion in NBC’s Olympics coverage marks the network’s determination to appeal to younger, digitally-focused audiences who may not be used to watching the event on TV with their extended families. Starting in 2024, fans will have the option to watch competitions live as they happen, making it essential for NBC to create an engaging primetime presentation that captivates viewers after they’ve already been drawn in by the live action.

As a seasoned event producer with over a decade of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that the strategy employed by this company to attract audiences for their primetime presentation of the Opening Ceremonies is both innovative and inspiring. Their approach to collaborate with an eclectic mix of personalities from various fields is not only sure to draw in a diverse crowd but also adds a unique flavor to the event.

I’ve been following the exciting developments at NBC Sports for some time now. For months, they’ve been collaborating closely with Snoop Dogg. I was even part of the team that heard about his involvement during a production meeting at NBC Sports’ headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut. Molly Solomon, the leading executive in charge of Olympic broadcasts, shared her enthusiasm for Snoop’s role as an engaged fan, expressing this to the producers with great excitement.

As a movie buff, I’d put it this way: I wasn’t just planning to drop by. Two weeks before the grand Opening Ceremonies in Paris, I already touched down. Packed with enthusiasm, I’ve been immersed in a whirlwind of activities alongside the Olympians. Sliding into their practice facilities has been an exhilarating experience – from judo dojos to weightlifting arenas, three-on-three basketball courts, and even fencing pits. I’m that guy who can’t help but jump right in! It’s not just about chit-chat or exchanging pleasantries; I engage with them, try my hand at their sports, and soak up their stories. My focus is on the athletes’ backgrounds and families, as well as the lesser-known histories of these unfamiliar sporting events. The more I learn, the more I fall in love!

A less formal observer might not be used to Snoop Dogg’s serious side. Throughout his career, Snoop has gained recognition for his success in rap music and various media projects. These endeavors include collaborations with WWE for professional wrestling, a VH1 show alongside Martha Stewart, and Merry Jane, an online platform focusing on cannabis-related news.

As someone who has lived a long and fulfilling life, I can relate to this man’s enthusiasm for trying new things and connecting with younger generations. With children and grandchildren of my own, I understand the joy of learning from them and adapting to their world. It’s not always easy, but the reward is invaluable. Just like the man in the original text says, “I’m an old dog that can learn new tricks.” It’s never too late to grow and evolve, especially when it comes to building meaningful relationships with those around us. And who knows, we might even teach them a thing or two along the way!

He may be better suited to some of the rough-and-tumble antics such audiences demand. “I’m inspired by a lot of things Snoop does. At 57, I’m not inspired by trying to be an athlete again,” says Tirico. “Better leave that all to Snoop.”

One meeting that could be on tap is a one-on-one encounter with Olympic legend Michael Phelps. “I may jump in the pool and learn how to do the 25 meters, something to that effect,” says Snoop Dogg, adding: “One thing about me, when I’m around these Olympians, I feel like I’m just as good as them or might give it a chance. So I’ll be trying it.”

Snoop Dogg reassures his doubters that he will demonstrate his abilities in the coming weeks. “I’m ready to take action,” he declares. “Stay tuned and keep an eye on me.”
