Snoop Dogg Drops It Like It’s Hot at Olympics Closing Ceremony
Snoop Dogg just updated his Olympics resume with yet another role: Closing Ceremony performer.
After stealing the show day after day in Paris during the 2024 Olympics, the rapper, who served as an NBC Olympics Special Correspondent, flew back to his native California to help usher the Games to Los Angeles for 2028 on Aug. 11. The handoff, which began with H.E.R. performing the National Anthem, saw Simone Biles and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass take hold of the Olympic flag. Only for Tom Cruise to leap into the Stade de France, take hold of the flag and fly it over to Hollywood.
After rousing performances by Red Hot Chili Peppers and Billie Eilish on the sunny Venice Beach stage, Snoop kicked off his two-song set on the boardwalk with one of his biggest hits, “Drop It Like It’s Hot.”
Then, a special guest took the stage as Snoop made his way through the crowd: Dr. Dre. Closing out the handoff section of the ceremony, the longtime collaborators performed “The Next Episode”—a fitting tune to welcome the Olympics to L.A.
