Dre was centre stage at the handover from Paris to LA on Sunday’s epic Olympics closing ceremony performance with pal Snoop Dogg.
Millions watched Snoop play songs with longtime collaborator and friend Dre at a Long Beach stage.
Dre, 59, said that teaming up with Snoop Dogg, 52, for a performance of their hit “The Next Episode” was a great time.
He said: “It’s magical. I don’t even feel comfortable performing without Snoop.
“Something about the synergy that me and Snoop have is really interesting.
“Really, Snoop, he’s the superstar. I’m the co-star when we get on stage.
“It’s different when we’re in the studio, you know? I’m the captain when we’re in the studio, but when we go outside, Snoop is the guy.”
