Olympic fever is in full swing, and for some people, the real star of the show isn’t an athlete—it’s none other than the iconic rapper Snoop Dogg!

The Drop It Like It’s Hot star has been a major hit at this year’s Olympics, and not just because he kicked off the Games by carrying the torch.

Snoop, working for NBC, has been stealing the show at various heats across the Olympics, particularly when he attended a dressage event over the weekend.

Highlights
  • Snoop Dogg stole the show at the Paris Olympics, particularly at the dressage event.
  • Wearing full riding gear, the rapper made an entrance at the Chateau de Versailles venue with Martha Stewart.
  • Snoop fulfilled his wish of meeting the famous horse, Mopsie, from the U.S. dressage team.
  • Fans on social media joked about Snoop Dogg deserving a GOLD medal for keeping them entertained.
  • He also gave his long-time friend Martha a surprise ahead of her 83rd birthday.

    Decked out in full riding gear—breeches, dressage tailcoat, and hard hat—Snoop made quite the entrance at the Chateau de Versailles venue, accompanied by TV legend Martha Stewart.

    The two celebrities met two of the horses from the U.S. dressage team, and the hip-hop icon got to fulfill his wish of meeting the famous horse, Mopsie.

    The 52-year-old rapper was accompanied by Martha Stewart during the equestrian team dressage event

    “I gotta go meet him, you know what I’m saying?” the rapper had said ahead of meeting the horse. “And let him know I’m a big fan. You know, the way you do when you meet your favorite person.”

    His encounter with the horse on Sunday completed his longtime desire to meet the beloved four-legged creature.

    Social media was ablaze with posts about “Snoop Horse,” with one fan joking, “No sport is safe from Snoop Dogg.”

    “They need to give Snoop Dogg a GOLD medal along with the athletes for keeping us entertained during the Olympics,” one said, while another chimed in, “If anyone needs a participation award it’s Snoop Dogg.”

    The hip-hop icon admitted he was afraid of horses and was getting this close to horses for the first time during the event

    The 52-year-old artist’s Olympic adventures did not end there. As he reunited with his longtime friend Martha, the duo celebrated her birthday in Paris on Friday, August 2, a day before she turned 83 on August 3.

    The Young, Wild & Free rapper had a little help from Cookie Monster to celebrate the culinary icon’s special day. The blue Muppet made a surprise appearance, bringing a cone-shaped cake made of macarons to mark the occasion.

    Can we just all agree that the best thing about the Paris Olympics has been Snoop Dogg?

    I'm also enjoying all of the more-relaxed attitudes (re: celebrating and stuff) and the amazing sportsmanship and support the athletes have shown towards their "rivals" and fellow competitors, but I agree, Snoop has been the absolutely most fabulous touch. I think he should be one of the Olympic hosts when the Olympics comes to my home state in 2028! XD I also think it's absolutely wonderful that he admits to having a fear of horses, but was 100% willing to meet the horsies up close and feed them treats!

    I am so glad Snoop Dogg exists. And he looks rather sharp in his riding gear.

    Snoop Dogg and Simone Biles are the best things that haven happened at the Olympics in years.

    I'm a horseback rider and this made me crack up. Especially when he said he thought the horses were the ones remembering the pattern. And he called the riders "drivers". Overall I've found him quite annoying, but it was cool to see Martha explain Dressage to him.
