As the 2024 Summer Olympics continue to captivate audiences worldwide, Snoop Dogg has become a beloved figure at the Paris Games, giving back and spreading joy in unique ways.
During a recent visit to a track and field event on August 8, the rapper made headlines for his thoughtful gift to Simone Biles’ family. While hanging out with the star gymnast and her family, Snoop Dogg presented Simone’s father, Ronald Biles, with a new Death Row chain to celebrate his 75th birthday.
The gesture delighted the Biles family, who shared their excitement on social media. Simone’s sister, Adria, posted a photo of Mr. Biles wearing the gold chain next to his birthday cake, capturing the moment’s festive spirit.
Snoop Dogg’s presence has been a highlight of the Games, with memorable interactions including dancing with Simone Biles and her teammate Jordan Chiles during a qualification round on July 28. The rapper’s impromptu moves in the stands, paired with his Biles T-shirt, added a touch of fun and camaraderie to the Olympic atmosphere.
In addition to his recent acts of kindness, Snoop Dogg has also been reflecting on past encounters with the Biles family. Simone’s mother, Nellie Biles, recalled a missed photo opportunity in New York City back in 2010, which Snoop Dogg humorously remembered during a chat with the family and Today show’s Hoda Kotb.
