Stylishly sporting a large gold chain around his neck, he picked up a broom himself at the curling stadium in Cortina d'Ampezzo and practiced with the US mixed team. Snoop Dogg is the first honorary coach in the history of the US team at the Games. The US Olympic Committee announced this in December.

It was announced last fall that Snoop Dogg would be attending the Winter Games. The 54-year-old is thus returning to the Olympic stage, having been the undisputed star of the 2024 Summer Games in Paris. Back then, he demonstrated his passion for sports at numerous competition venues, almost always attracting attention and primarily supporting the US team.
