Snoop Dogg is continuing to make headlines at Paris 2024.
The rapper has taken a break from cheering on Team USA to test his hand at swimming, and received a lesson from none other than 23-time Olympic champion Michael Phelps.
The legendary swimmer shared his secret to becoming the best in the pool with his student: “Wing span and lung power.”
Snoop’s response? “You just described me!”
But it didn’t take long for the musician and actor to realise just how hard it is to be successful in the pool.
Perhaps his first mistake was turning down goggles, which he soon realised would have helped as he attempted the freestyle.
Snoop was at the aquatics centre as Team USA won gold in the 4x100m freestyle relay on 27 July.
He has also been spotted in the audience cheering on his compatriots in gymnastics, in which the U.S. women’s team won gold just yesterday (30 July), and other sports.
Maybe an uneven bars lesson with Simone Biles is next on his list…
Swimming is HARD! 😅
