Massimo Boldi no, Snoop Dogg yes.

The'athlete defending the Three Crowns poles began her career in the Järveds IF.
He made his Olympic debut in Beijing 2022, where Sweden finished in eighth place.

She left MoDo after the 2017/18 season to transfer to college.
She played four years with the University of Minnesota-Duluth in the American college.
After college he made the jump to the PWHL playing in Boston the last two seasons.
His return to his homeland became a reality with the'engagement by the SDE.
She was Sweden’s starting goalkeeper in four consecutive World Championships.

You can’t say that the yellow-blue selection is not in very good hands.
Emma, class of 1998, is very active on social with over 5 million followers on Instagram.

The 54-year-old Long Beach performer paraded wearing the official Games&#8217 uniform and even mentioned a few dance moves. “It is an honor to have this flashlight in my hands, to bring peace and love as a representative of the Winter Olympic Games here in Italy,” he remarked in a statement within a video posted on his Instagram profile and shared by the Milan Cortina 2026 Foundation.

“They humiliated 80-year-old Massimo Boldi by taking away his honor of being a torchbearer for the Games in Cortina because of a joke” thundered former Congressman Mario Adinolfi, who was particularly bitter about Boldi’s ouster and in the same breath stymied by the presence of a singer he does not esteem because of the lyrics of some of his songs and lifestyle.

The Organizing Committee had decided to remove ‘Max Cipollino’s’ name from the list of torchbearers in mid-January. “The decision follows an interview published today in a national newspaper, in which views were expressed that were deemed incompatible with Olympic values and the principles that guide the work of the Organizing Committee” a note issued to justify the drastic measure read.

The Organizing Committee had decided to remove ‘Max Cipollino’ from the list of torchbearers.

And again… “Carrying the Olympic Flame represents a privilege and a responsibility, and requires that the individuals selected embody and promote the values of respect, unity and inclusion, foundations of the Olympic Movement and essential conditions for participation in the relay”.

“The nomination of torchbearers can be made by the different entities that contribute to the construction of the Journey of the Flame, including the Milan Cortina 2026 Foundation, the Stage Cities, the Sponsors of the Olympic project, the regional CONIs, the territorial entities and the International Olympic Committee. The Milan Cortina 2026 Foundation will continue to organize an Olympic Torch Relay that fully reflects these principles and celebrates the unifying power of sport, in full compliance with the Olympic spirit” the conclusion of the statement.
