Snoop Dogg Gifts Simone Biles’ Dad a Death Row Records Chain for His 75th Birthday

Simone Biles’ dad Ronald celebrated a milestone birthday just days after his daughter made history at the Olympics — and now he has a gift from Snoop Dogg to remember it by. On Thursday, the gymnast’s sister Adria shared a photo of their dad Ronald celebrating his 75th birthday with a gold chain around his neck — gifted by Snoop himself.

“Snoop gave him a chain, now he don’t know how to act,” Adria wrote on her Instagram story. The photo sees Ronald holding up a Death Row Records golden chain over his Team USA merch while celebrating from inside an Olympic stadium. “75 looks great on you! Happy birthday I love you,” Adria continued.

Also on Thursday, Simone shared a photo of Ronald holding up a chocolate cake and some candles while the family watched the track and field competitions. “Happy Birthday,” read the cake’s frosting.

The Biles family has been spending some time alongside Snoop during the Games. Simone’s parents Nellie and Ronald watched the Opening Ceremony with Snoop and Hoda Kotb, and remembered a time they met Snoop years ago. “I’ll never forget we met you in Times Square in 2010. We asked for a picture and you said, ‘Two minutes.’ One, two and you were gone,” Nellie said during the ceremony as the crew giggled.

The sweet celebration comes just a week after Biles completed her competition at the Olympic games, after winning three gold medals and a silver medal for Team USA.  Biles made history with her all-around final win, which she also won in Rio in 2016. The victory made her the first U.S. gymnast to win the women’s all-around competition twice and just the third gymnast to do it ever. 

Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg has become a fan-favorite of NBC’s coverage of the Paris Games. On Friday, the musician opened up the first breakdance battles at the Olympic Games by C-walking on the breakdancing stage.
