Mayor Mathieu Hanotin confirmed that Snoop Dogg will carry the torch through the streets of the suburb of Saint-Denis on Friday. The area is home to the Olympic Stadium and a water sports center. Other torchbearers in Saint-Denis include actress Laetitia Casta, Snoop Dogg’s rap colleague MC Solaar and pole vaulter Sergei Bubka.
The Olympic flame was carried through France for two months. On Friday morning, it will be carried through the athletes’ village between Saint-Denis and neighboring Saint-Ouen before being taken to the Olympic Stadium and the aquatic center – among others by 52-year-old Snoop Dogg. The musician was born in the greater Los Angeles area, where the Olympic Games will take place in 2028. The torch relay is not the rapper’s only appearance at the Olympic Games this year. Snoop Dogg will also work as an Olympic commentator for the US broadcaster NBC.
Otherwise, the rapper is a passionate grandfather, as he emphasized in an interview with the Internet portal “Access Hollywood”: “Having children was the best experience I’ve ever had, but having grandchildren is even better. His grandchildren call him “Papa Snoop,” explained Snoop Dogg. The rapper has three sons and a daughter and, according to his own account, twelve grandchildren.
