Rapper Snoop Dogg’s Supposed Daily Earnings at Paris 2024 Olympics Spark Controversy
American rapper Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, has been a prominent figure since the start of the Paris 2024 Olympics. Snoop Dogg, who is in Paris to provide commentary for NBC until the conclusion of the Olympics on Sunday, August 11, is reportedly receiving a substantial daily income.
A viral tweet by Henry L McNamara, a New York-based venture capitalist, claimed Snoop Dogg’s alleged Olympics paycheck amounts to $500,000 (N796 million) daily plus expenses.
“Sat next to an NBC exec at dinner,” McNamara wrote on August 4. “He said Snoop gets paid $500,000 a day plus expenses to be here promoting [the] Olympics.
By calculation, Snoop Dogg will reportedly make a whopping total of $8m for the 16-day event.

Super Eagles playmaker, Alex Iwobi, has admitted they are waiting to see if the team would still play at the 2026 World Cup.
The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is optimistic of a potential lifeline from FIFA, after it submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Iwobi was asked by SuperSport if he would rather lift the AFCON 2025 trophy or qualify for the World Cup?
The 29-year-old, who played at the 2018 of the World Cup, replied: “I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have like in your career, a memorable moment.
“But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been. They would like to say ‘I want to go to the World Cup,’ so I can’t be selfish and say win the AFCON and for my teammates to not go to the World Cup. So it’s a tough one. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
