Simone Biles will team up with Snoop Dogg on NBC’s ‘The Voice’ in surprise role

Simone Biles teams up with Snoop Dogg in a very unexpected way for NBC’s hit reality singing show The voice.

The seven-time Olympic gold medalist joins the legendary rapper as one of his singing team’s mentors in the episode, which premieres on Monday. The episode had already been filmed, and Biles admitted that she had fun doing it, even though singing isn’t her expertise.

“We were able to riff off each other and give the artists the best insight into the next round,” Biles told Associated Press. “It was pretty easy, simple. We’re both very soft. But if we need to get that energy up, we can. For us it was about building confidence for the next week.”

It sounds like Biles’ best advice to Snoop Dogg’s team is how to perform under the lights with everyone watching and how best to handle that pressure. She has competed in three Olympic Games and various other international gymnastics competitions, so she knows what it’s like to be in the spotlight.

“She’s a performer. I’m a performer. We’ve performed in extreme conditions. We always do our best. But sometimes things happen behind closed doors that you don’t know about,” Snoop Dogg said. “So we’re able to speak to those things and give them real reassurance.”

Snoop Dogg worked as an Olympic correspondent for NBC during the 2024 Paris Games last summer. He saw Biles perform on the Olympic stage there, and now she can see his craft up close.

The voice premieres Monday night at 8 PM ET on NBC.
