Snoop Dogg has been a hit musician, reality TV star and even Olympics broadcaster. On Friday, he added Paris 2024 torch bearer to that list.
The 52-year-old carried the Olympic flame in an area next to the Stade de France stadium in the northern Parisian suburb of Saint-Denis.
His part of the relay -- the penultimate leg before Friday night's opening ceremony -- went off without a hitch. The same can't be said for France's railway network on Friday morning, which has been hit with major disruption ahead of the opening ceremony.
Vandals targeted France's high-speed TGV network with a series of coordinated actions.
The state-owned railway operator said arsonists had targeted installations along the lines connecting Paris with cities such as Lille in the north, Bordeaux in the west and Strasbourg in the east.
