Paris 2024 Equestrian: Snoop Dogg's dream comes true as he meets 'horsey' idol
Few people outside of Leon Marchand and Simone Biles have had a better Olympic experience than Snoop Dogg. The rapper has been everywhere at the Olympic Games Paris 2024: cheering on beach volleyball in a custom uniform, in Lille to see the U.S. men’s basketball team, and standing with Caeleb Dressel’s wife and baby as the swimmer won a gold medal.
But this might be the best part of Snoop’s trip to Paris. Alongside his friend Martha Stewart, the duo stopped by the U.S. Equestrian training center to meet the famous rave horse, Mopsie. The dressage horse dances to EDM music, and Snoop said in a recent interview that he thinks Mopsie can “crip-walk” better than any human. This fulfilled Snoop’s biggest Olympic wish.
Dressed to the nines in riding gear, Snoop and Stewart met two of the horses from the U.S. dressage team. He complimented the horses’ mane, saying he might try some of the braids in his own hair, and fed them carrots.
Stewart is experienced with horses and keeps them on her farm in upstate New York, and looked right at home. Snoop, though, got a little scared when one of the horses tried to grab the carrot.
One thing we didn’t see was Snoop trying to ride a horse. Perhaps that’s his next career reinvention – Snoop Dogg competing dressage at LA 2028 right in his own backyard of southern California.
