Snoop Dogg is enjoying himself greatly and earning a substantial income while competing in the Paris Olympics. The legendary rapper is reportedly making a whopping $500,000 a day working as a special correspondent for Peacock and NBC. Former NFL quarterback Cam Newton commented on the talk over his alleged Olympic salary.
Newton is all for the rapper’s purported windfall, even though neither Snoop nor the network have verified these numbers. During his podcast, “4th and 1,” the former NFL player expressed his unwavering support for Snoop’s disclosed income.

Cam Newton was thrilled because he had a great deal of respect for Snoop Dogg’s professional journey. He said,
“This man has done it his way. Ain’t bend the knee, ain’t coward out,”
The former quarterback for the Panthers thinks Snoop’s presence has improved the Olympic experience for spectators. In a genuine compliment, Newton told the rapper, “Keep going because you’re empowering and impacting and inspiring n****s like me.”
But the important question still stands: Did NBC really pay Snoop so much to be at the Olympics?
