Rap Icon Snoop Dogg Chosen to Bear Olympic Torch.

Rap legend Snoop Dogg will be one of the final torchbearers for the Olympic flame before the opening ceremony in Paris this Friday.

Snoop Dogg, at 52, will carry the Olympic torch through Saint-Denis in Paris on Friday. This is the second-to-last leg before the relay ends at the Eiffel Tower.

Since May, the torch has traveled across France, carried by many notable figures like Arsene Wenger, Charles Leclerc, and Halle Berry.

Snoop Dogg, born Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. in Los Angeles (the 2028 Games host city), will join French actress Laetitia Casta and rapper MC Solaar in Saint-Denis.
