Hip-hop legend and music executive Dr. Dre has announced his ambitious plans to compete in archery at the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
The 59-year-old rapper and producer, known for iconic hits like "Nuthin' But a G Thang," revealed his Olympic aspirations during an interview with Nischelle Turner of Entertainment Tonight.
"I'm try'na try out for the Olympics in 2028," Dr. Dre declared, emphasizing that he's "dead ass serious" about his intentions.
When asked which sport he plans to compete in, Dre confidently responded, "Archery." Dr. Dre's interest in archery dates back to his junior high school days when he was part of an archery team.
Although his passion for the sport waned over the years, it was recently rekindled by his son, who gifted him archery targets for Father's Day. "I have it set up in my backyard, and I heard qualifying for the Olympics is 77 feet.
I practice at 90," Dre said, showing his commitment to honing his skills.
As Los Angeles prepares to host the 2028 Summer Games, Dr. Dre's announcement adds an exciting and unexpected twist to the countdown.
The music mogul might just trade the mic for a bow and arrow, aiming for Olympic glory in his hometown.
