00:00You'll be begging me to take off my gold medal, you know?
00:04Dr. Dre, but perhaps we shouldn't call him that moving forward.
00:09Dr. Dre has a new nickname.
00:11We spoke to him on TMZ Live and he said that his buddies have all heard him say that he wants to be an archer in the Olympics in 2028.
00:18Snoop actually called me and he said all the guys in his place are calling me Braveheart.
00:22Freedom! And this dude is dead serious about this.
00:25I'm pretty good at it, so why not try out for it, you know?
00:29I'm pretty sure that I can bring some attention to the sport, especially with it being here in L.A.
00:33He's been doing it at like 90 feet, but the Olympic distance is almost 250 feet.
00:38That looks impossible to me.
00:39This is me just on my own without a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher.
00:47That looks impossible to me.
00:48This is me just on my own without a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher, and I'm trying to get a teacher.
00:55Too late, Dr. Dre, man.
00:56Four years is not enough time to master something like that.
00:59They'll have the best equipment, the best trainers.
01:01He was doing this when he was 14 years old.
01:03So this is just a matter of practice.
01:05Here's what I think.
01:06He has goals.
01:07The fact that this guy thinks that this is something I want to do and I'm going to go for it, I think is so admirable and inspiring.
01:16You don't try to become an Olympian when you're in your, like, 60s.
01:19Why not?
01:20You can pick up sports late in life.
01:23This guy could be a champion jockey in, like, two years.
01:27You're the best, Dre, and we wish you luck.
01:29Thank you for having me.
