Move over Olympians, there’s a new MVP in town.
After spending the better part of a week traveling with the Team USA squad in several disciplines, Snoop Dogg has boldly declared himself as the Most Valuable Player at the Olympic Games.
The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” hitmaker, 52, who carried the torch before the opening ceremony, has been bringing the fun by getting in on all the sporting action in Paris.
“Man, this is a grind out here,” the rapper told NBC host Mike Tirico during Wednesday’s broadcast. “But I’m having so much fun.”
“Mike, I may be the MVP of the Olympics, just saying,” he quipped.
And if there was a gold medal for cheerleaders at this year’s Games, the rap icon would no doubt be claiming it.
“The Next Episode” hitmaker is currently serving as a Special Correspondent for NBC during the Games, and is slated to regularly appear in “Primetime in Paris.”
The rapper, whose real name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., earlier this week met up with the most decorated Olympian, Michael Phelps, for a swim lesson.
“Now, MP, how does one get so fast in the pool?” Dogg asked Phelps in a clip shared on X Tuesday.
“Wingspan, lung power,” the retired athlete said, to which the rapper responded, “You just described me. You said wingspan, lung power. I definitely have great lung power.”
Elsewhere, the rapper traveled by bus and train with Team USA’s men’s basketball team on their journey to Lille in France, where the group stages are being played.
“I felt a lot of brotherhood, of camaraderie. I felt them ego-checking themselves at the door,” he said of the team, fronted by Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.
“I think they know what this is. They know that this team was put together reminiscent of ‘The Dream Team,’ the spirit of having the best of the best represent the country. It’s not about me; it’s about we.”
The “Young, Wild & Free” hitmaker also made his undying support for Team USA’s women’s gymnastics known.
The rapper was seen chatting with Simone Biles’ family during the Games, which this week saw the team emerge victorious and claim gold.
The historic win propelled Biles to become the most decorated gymnast in US history.
