Olympics superfan Snoop Dogg sports full equestrian kit to watch dressage | Ents & Arts News
Olympics superfan and special correspondent Snoop Dogg sported full equestrian kit – hat included – as he watched the dressage in Paris on Saturday.
The 52-year-old was driven to the stands at the Palace of Versailles, Paris, on a golf cart while dressed in breeches, a dressage tailcoat and hard hat.
His ensemble also included sunglasses and an ‘S’ emblem on his jacket.
Snoop was joined by unlikely friend Martha Stewart, who he has previously hosted a TV show with, and the American chef was sporting a near matching outfit.
The rapper shared his excitement for the equestrian event during an appearance on NBC.
“I am interested in the horses that dance,” he said. “And I want to give them some carrots and apples… make sure they’re fed before they do their thang.”
Snoop and Stewart witnessed an exciting morning at the dressage team grand prix special, which saw British rider Becky Moody clock up a leading first-round score aboard her horse Jagerbomb.

The rider and her teammates, Carl Hester and Charlotte Fry, ultimately finished in third place, behind Germany and Denmark.
Snoop’s jam-packed Paris schedule has so far seen him cheer on Team USA gymnast Simone Biles, while wearing a T-shirt with her face on, and attend beach volleyball and judo events.
He also carried the Olympics Torch on the final day of its journey through the streets of the French capital.
He later said of that moment: “Something I’m gonna be able to live with and be happy with [is] to know that I was the face and the voice of peace for that one moment in time.”
This is the second Olympics running that Snoop has found himself in the spotlight.
Back in 2021, his dressage commentary went viral after he described one of the animals involved as a “crip-walking horse”.
