Ralph Lauren tailors Team USA in under four hours at Paris Olympics
Ralph Lauren brings a team of over 20 tailors to Paris to custom fit the opening and closing ceremony uniforms for all Team USA Olympians.
Rap artist Snoop Dogg strutted with the Olympic torch through the suburbs of Paris before the opening ceremony on Friday.
The Grammy-nominated Snoop, who will provide commentary as a special correspondent throughout the Olympic games, walked through the streets of Saint-Denis as the final torchbearer. French actress Laetitia Casta and French rapper MC Solaar also carried the torch in Saint-Denis.
“I look at this as a prestigious honor and something I truly respect. I would have never dreamed of nothing like this,” he said earlier this week. “I’m going to be on my best behavior. I’m going to be on my best athleticism. I’ll be able to breathe slow to walk fast and hold the torch with a smile on my face, because I realize how prestigious this event is.”
Snoop, who was dressed in a white Olympic tracksuit and gold sneakers, will hand the torch off and it will be carried the Olympic cauldron during the opening ceremony, which was held outside a stadium for the first time in Summer Games history.

The Olympic torch started its procession to France in May after spending 12 days in Greece. Florent Manaudou, who won a gold medal in the men’s 50-meter freestyle at the 2012 London Games, was the first person to receive the flame after it arrived in France.
