Snoop is famously associated with all things involving marijuana but, in France, it is reportedly illegal for personal use and limited for medical use yet remains one of the most popular drugs in the country. While being instructed on how to perform an 'ouchi-gari' martial art move, Snoop misheard is as 'the OG.'
The 52-year-old rap superstar got into the Parisian spirit by donning a black beret and large sunglasses while sporting his signature star-spangled tracksuit Last Friday, the Emmy-winning performer had the honor of carrying the Olympic torch before the opening ceremony, which he called 'extraordinary.''It was excellent. And I found out that when you hold the torch, you're a peace messenger. So, I really felt good about that...I was waving, shaking hands, kissing the babies, doing what I do...putting my foot in the pavement. Letting the people know that we're here. We're here for peace, love and unity, and great sportsmanship.
Snoop gushed to NBC News host Mike Tirico on Wednesday: 'Man, this is a grind out here, but I'm having so much fun. Mike, I may be the MVP of the Olympics, just saying'
