During the Television Critics Association's Winter Press Tour (#TCA24), NBC unveiled its coverage plans for the 2024 Paris Olympics, announcing that Snoop Dogg will join as a special correspondent. Snoop Dogg, known for his charismatic presence, sparked laughter during the event by playfully refusing to disclose his favorite Olympic sport. He also hinted at a potential collaboration with Dolly Parton for the Olympics and confidently stated his readiness for the role, saying, 'Don't worry about the research. I know everything about everyone.' Meanwhile, concerns were raised about the Paris Olympics prioritizing spectacle over security, with the Opening Ceremonies described as unprecedented in ambition, scale, and possibly risk.
