Rapper Snoop Dogg embarked on a new journey at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The music producer is one of the brightest non-athletic stars during the Olympic Games for his unconditional support of Team USA in all events. Snoop came to France thanks to a million-dollar deal with NBC to provide content and commentary during the Games.
It is well known that Snoop enjoys marijuana, even, during the Super Bowl LVI halftime show, he was seen smoking what was supposed to be marijuana on stage. Now, at Paris 2024, while supporting Team USA basketball in the quarterfinals against Brazil, he passed a small “pack” toWNBA star A’ja Wilson.

Snoop seems to be having quite a journey at the Summer Olympics. He’s having fun, learning to swim with Michael Phelps and with the help of Martha Stewart overcoming his fear of horses, he’s practically shining in Paris 2024.
The rapper was spotted with WNBA star A’Ja Wilson who on Tuesday had a well-deserved break after leading the U.S. women’s basketball team to the final rounds of the Olympics. Both were supporting the men’s basketball team in their game against Brazil in the quarterfinals.
As expected, the Americans dominated the game winning 122-87 and will now meet in the semifinal against Serbia on Thursday.
Snoop Dogg and A’ja Wilson were very comfortable enjoying the game when Snoop pulled out a “package” and passed it to the basketball player. Of course, it couldn’t have been anything other than some candy or something to eat, as the rapper smartly wasn’t going to get in serious trouble during the Olympics by trying to do something illicit like smoking marijuana.
Although on other occasions, the most successful hip-hop artist in Gangsta rap has been transgressive regardless of the place and time. However, in Paris 2024, Snoop, representing his country as a host for NBC, as an iconic figure in American music, and with a million-dollar salary, was not going to risk losing everything by smoking a joint.
