Snoop’s appearance comes after he borrowed a presidential tradition in the U.S. when he decided to give a surprise phone call to the ladies who medaled in the 200-meter final for Track and Field at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The video featured Gabby Thomas, who had just won the gold for Team USA, Julien Alfred, who made Saint Lucia proud by taking home silver, and Brittany Brown, the bronze winner who also represented Team USA.
Feeling excited over her accomplishments at the games and to be talking to the Doggystyle star himself, Brown made a point of letting the superstar rapper know she’s from Pomona, California, which is just 45 miles northeast of his hometown of Long Beach, California.
‘Snoop Dogg, I know you have a team in Pomona, California. I’m from Pomona. I’m just letting you know I’m from Pomona. IE, Pomona,’ Brown told the Gin And Juice star.
For which Snoop quickly replied: ‘You already know — most definitely. Y’all made me proud today.’
Snoop – real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. – looked to be thoroughly enjoying the game, with the hitmaker seen clapping and cheering in support of the players

‘Great job, ladies! Great job!’ the hip-hop legend, 52, can be heard telling the three ladies in a Facebook Reel shared to the official Team USA Track and Field account
Snoop, who has served as a special ambassador for NBC during the major sports event, has been all over the Olympics with his commentary and appearances both solo and with Martha Stewart, 83.
Among their first ventures together the dynamic duo of Snoop and Martha co-hosted Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party for VH1 in the fall of 2016.
Before heading to the Olympics, Snoop had been working hard on his upcoming 12th studio album, Missionary.
The rapper started talking publicly about working on new music on his social media accounts in the latter part of 2022.
The album is being produced by his longtime collaborator Dr. Dre, who helped get Snoop’s career off the ground with the single Deep Cover, as well as producing his debut studio album, Doggystyle (1993).
During an appearance on the Stephen A. Smith podcast, Know Mercy, Snoop told fans that ‘it’ll be done in November.’
Missionary has been described as a return to the sound of the rapper’s first albums, released in the early to mid-1990s.

Ozzie Virgil Sr, the first Dominican to ever play in the MLB, has died.
He was 92 years old.
Virgil Sr. began his nine-year career in 1956 with the Giants (then of New York), who remembered him on Sunday with a tribute on X.
He later spent time with the Tigers, Athletics, Orioles and Pirates before wrapping up his career back with the Giants in separate stints in 1966 and 1969.
The MLB wrote on its official X account that it was ‘deeply saddened’ to learn of his passing.
Our thoughts are with his son, two-time All-Star catcher Ozzie Virgil Jr., and the rest of the Virgil family,’ they wrote.
Virgil’s presence in the MLB opened the door for many other Dominican players to follow suit.
Today, Dominican players make up 9.83% of all MLB rosters according to World Population Review – the highest figure of any country other than the USA.
Virgil served as a utility player in the big leagues and had a career batting average of .231 with 14 home runs.
