In a recent interview with Esquire, as quoted by Marca, it was not a walk in the park since he never had time for himself.
“See, that's the part I didn't know. I was in Paris, hours ahead of y'all, probably filming the next segment. I had no time to enjoy the highlights or soak in the moment because I had to stay ahead of the clock,” Snoop Dogg revealed.
Despite the tight schedule he managed to have a great time with the most decorated American gymnast, Simone Biles.
Witnessing Biles win three Olympic gold medals, in the women’s all-around, team and the vault. She also claimed a silver medal on the floor exercise.
