At the Paris Olympic Games, Snoop Dogg is not just a spectator but a fashion icon. The 52-year-old rapper first drew attention as a torchbearer wearing an Olympics tracksuit ahead of the July 26 opening ceremony. Since then, he has continued to captivate audiences with his custom T-shirts.

While providing commentary for NBC, Snoop has been seen in white shirts featuring the faces of notable Team USA Olympians. Among those featured are gymnast Simone Biles and tennis star Coco Gauff, who were flagbearers alongside NBA superstar LeBron James.

On Sunday, NBC Sports praised Snoop's fashion choice, posting a video of him in a Simone Biles shirt with the caption, "We’re giving Snoop Dogg’s shirt a perfect 10." The next day, Coco Gauff noticed Snoop wearing a shirt with her face on it. She shared a photo on her Instagram Stories, commenting, "Snoop has good fashion."

Gauff also shared a picture of Snoop with tennis legend Billie Jean King and other athletes, with the caption, "Didn't get a pic with snoop but I was there in spirit," referring to her image on his shirt.

In a joint video by the United States Tennis Association, Team USA, and the Women’s Tennis Association, Snoop gifted Gauff a unique pin featuring himself blowing smoke shaped like the Olympic rings. "Got something for you, beautiful. This is for you. Great game today. Go, USA," Snoop said. To which, Gauff responded, "Hey, Mr. Snoop. Thanks for this pin. This is the best pin I've ever gotten."

Snoop Dogg is involved in sports as a football coach and operator of the Snoop Youth Football League. Earlier this year, he expressed pride in Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, who made it to the playoffs after developing his skills in Snoop's league. Snoop described feeling like a "proud father" seeing Stroud's success.
