Snoop Dogg came prepared with snacks to watch the men’s basketball quarterfinal between Team USA and Brazil at the Paris Olympics this week.
In a now-viral clip posted to social media and later shared to Snoop’s Instagram page, the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper is seen cheering on the team while sitting in the audience with women’s basketball Olympian A’ja Wilson.
At the game, Snoop was seen dressed in an American flag t-shirt with the Olympic rings on it and a black newsboy cap, paired with aviator sunglasses. At one point in the day, the star leans over to Wilson and offers the athlete some Skittles. “You want some candy lil’ mama?” Snoops asks Wilson, who excitedly replies, “Oh, bet!”
