To be at the Paris 2024 Olympics, Snoop Dogg is said to be getting paid a crazy amount of money every day.
Snoop Dogg is a famous person in the music business and pop culture. He was born Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. on October 20, 1971, in Long Beach, California. With a career that spans more than 30 years, Snoop Dogg has become one of the most important and long-lasting names in hip-hop.
Dr. Dre found Snoop in the early 1990s and this was the start of his rise to fame. His unique, laid-back style and smooth delivery made him stand out in the rap scene right away. When it came out in 1993, his first record, “Doggystyle,” was an instant hit. It went straight to number one on the Billboard 200 and finally went quadruple platinum. Hits like “Who Am I (What’s My Name)?” and “Gin and Juice” became themes of the time.

Through the years, Snoop Dogg has changed and grown, trying out new vocal styles and working with many acts from different genres. His range can be seen in works like “Bush,” “R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece,” and “The Blue Carpet Treatment.” Many famous singers, including Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, and Willie Nelson, have worked with him, showing that he can do more than just hip-hop.
Not only does Snoop Dogg make songs, but he also does other kinds of entertainment. He has tried his hand at playing in movies like “Training Day” and “Starsky & Hutch” and on TV with his reality show “Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood.” Snoop is also known for being an enterprising person who has started businesses in a number of fields, such as cannabis (with his brand Leafs by Snoop) and technology (by investing in startups).
People also know Snoop Dogg for his work and giving back to the community. He has done a lot of good things for others, mostly in the areas of education, youth growth, and community development.
The rapper who has won awards is said to be getting paid $500,000 a day by NBC and Peacock to cover the Olympics as a special reporter.
@henrylmcnamara, a partner at the venture capital company Great Oaks and a member of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list, talked about X:
A person who works for NBC told me at dinner that Snoop gets paid $500,000 a day plus travel costs to be here promoting the Olympics.
“From [his song] ‘Gin and Juice’ to making a few million dollars and becoming famous at the Olympics—what a world!”
A sports writer named Darren Rovell went on X to talk about:
“That about sounds right,”
“Someone asked me how much Snoop was making.”
“$10 million was the first number that came to mind.”
The games last for 16 days, which means the 52-year-old would make $8 million, not counting any extra money he might have to spend on things like travel, pre-production days, and work after the games are over.
