The Paris Olympics opening ceremony is taking place today (July 26), and it’s, so far, featured a performance from Lady Gaga, who sang “Mon truc en plumes.” See photos of her performance on the Seine below, and find footage on YouTube and X.
On social media, after her performance, Lady Gaga shared:
Also performing at the ceremony were Gojira, who became the first metal band to play an Olympic opening ceremony. They were joined by opera singer Marina Viotti to do “Ah! Ça Ira.” See more on X.
Later, Celine Dion is expected to perform at the opening ceremony, marking her return to the stage for the first time since her 2022 diagnosis with Stiff Person Syndrome. The Québécois singer had teased her comeback in April, telling Vogue France, “I’ve chosen to work with all my body and soul, from head to toe, with a medical team. I want to be the best I can be. My goal is to see the Eiffel Tower again!”
Earlier in the day, Snoop Dogg and Pharrell Williams were among those to carry the Olympic torch in the pre-ceremony build-up.
