Snoop Dogg and the sport of curling made for a very odd mixture at the Winter Olympics on Friday with British competitors Bruce Mouat and Jennifer Dodds even more shocked than the crowd and the millions tuning in when they got a picture request from the rapper.

Mouat and Dodds had maintained their unbeaten record so far at the Games with a 7-4 win over tough opponents Sweden, but were just as pleased to meet the US superstar.

“We saw him at half-time. We saw he was sat next to [US curler] Cory [Thiesse]’s mum. He asked for a photo with us, so I am feeling pretty good about myself,” reported Mouat. The duo were asked what the musician said to them, with Dodds replying: “He heard about Bruce!”
