Not to be outdone by Snoop Dogg and Flavor Flav, Dr. Dre is the latest rap star to get involved with the Summer Olympics. But Dre (whose real name is Andre Romell Young) doesn't just want to attend the 2028 Games in Los Angeles — he wants to compete.
His sport of choice: archery. Yes, for real. In fact, Dre told Entertainment Tonight he's "deadass serious." "I actually started playing around with archery in junior high," the 59-year-old said. "I stopped for a while, and my son bought me a setup.
I have it set up in my backyard and I heard qualifying for the Olympics is 77 feet. I practice at 90. Wouldn't that be interesting?" That would, indeed, be interesting.
And he'd get to do it in front of a hometown crowd. Dre was born and raised in Compton. Apparently, Dre's friend Snoop is on board with the plan as well and has already started calling him "Braveheart." RELATED: Snoop Dogg Is (Allegedly) Making HOW MUCH Money At The Olympics?!
