Snoop Dogg has cemented his status as a hip-hop icon, a Martha Stewart bestie, and the undisputed kush king. So what's left to conquer? Sports, of course.
史努比狗狗鞏固了他作為嘻哈偶像、瑪莎·斯圖爾特的閨蜜和無可爭議的庫什國王的地位。那么還有什么需要征服的呢?當然是運動。
NBCUniversal has announced that the Doggystyle rapper will serve as a special correspondent for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, where he'll be on the ground providing regular reports for the prime-time broadcast starting July 26.
NBCUniversal宣布,這位狗狗風格的說唱歌手將擔任2024年巴黎夏季奧運會的特約記者,他將在現(xiàn)場為7月26日開始的黃金時段廣播提供定期報道。
"I grew up watching the Olympics and am thrilled to see the incredible athletes bring their A-game to Paris," Snoop said in a statement. "It's a celebration of skill, dedication, and the pursuit of greatness. We're going to have some amazing competitions and, of course, I will be bringing that Snoop style to the mix."
史努比在一份聲明中說:“我是看著奧運會長大的,很高興看到這些不可思議的運動員將他們的A級比賽帶到巴黎。”“這是對技巧、奉獻精神和追求偉大的慶祝。我們將有一些令人驚嘆的比賽,當然,我將把Snoop風格融入其中。”
He continued: "It's going to be the most epic Olympics ever, so stay tuned, and keep it locked. Let's elevate, celebrate, and make these games unforgettable, smoke the competition, and may the best shine like gold. Peace and Olympic LOVE, ya dig?"
他繼續(xù)說道:“這將是有史以來最史詩般的奧運會,所以請繼續(xù)關注,并將其鎖定。讓我們提升、慶祝,讓這些比賽變得難忘,讓比賽充滿活力,讓最好的東西像金子一樣閃閃發(fā)光。和平與奧運之愛,你喜歡嗎?”
This isn't Snoop's first time delving into the world of Olympics coverage. During the 2021 Tokyo Games, he teamed up with Kevin Hart to provide hilarious Peacock-exclusive commentary that primarily consisted of play-by-play for sports they didn't wholly understand. This time around, Snoop will be on site in the City of Light with NBC Olympics host Mike Tirico.
這不是史努比第一次深入奧運會報道的世界。在2021年東京奧運會期間,他與凱文·哈特合作,提供了搞笑的孔雀獨家解說,主要包括他們不完全理解的體育項目的逐場解說。這一次,史努比將與NBC奧運會主持人邁克·蒂里科一起出現(xiàn)在光明之城。
In addition to providing his own unique take on the games, Snoop will explore the city's iconic landmarks and visit with competing athletes.
除了提供自己對奧運會的獨特見解外,史努比還將探索這座城市的標志性地標,并與參賽運動員一起參觀。
Just in case anyone’s struggling to envision Snoop's interviewing style, the rapper has already shared a small taste of what's to come. After announcing the news of his gig on New Year's Eve, Snoop dropped a short clip of interviews with Team USA athletes Jagger Eaton (skateboarder), Suni Lee (gymnastics), A'ja Wilson (basketball), and duo Kelly Cheng and Sara Hughes (beach volleyball).
為了防止有人難以想象史努比的采訪風格,這位說唱歌手已經(jīng)分享了一些即將到來的內(nèi)容。在新年前夕宣布演出消息后,史努比發(fā)布了一段采訪美國隊運動員賈格·伊頓(滑板運動員)、蘇尼·李(體操運動員)、阿賈·威爾遜(籃球運動員)以及兩人組合程和薩拉·休斯(沙灘排球運動員)的短片。
Snoop's prior Olympic commentary generated "tens of millions of views," said Molly Solomon, executive producer and president of NBC Olympics Production, in a statement. She added, "That performance alone has earned Snoop a job as our Special Correspondent in Paris. We don't know what the heck is going to happen every day, but we know he will add his unique perspective to our re-imagined Olympic primetime show."
NBC奧運制作執(zhí)行制片人兼總裁Molly Solomon在一份聲明中表示,史努比之前的奧運解說獲得了“數(shù)千萬的瀏覽量”。她補充道:“僅憑這一表現(xiàn),史努比就獲得了我們在巴黎的特約記者的工作。我們不知道每天會發(fā)生什么,但我們知道他會在我們重新想象的奧運黃金時段節(jié)目中加入他獨特的視角。”
NBCUniversal's Olympics coverage will be available on NBC and Peacock. You can watch Snoop engage with Team USA above.
