A video of Lady Gaga in Paris, captured just days before the
commencement of the Olympic Games, has ignited speculation regarding her
potential involvement in Friday’s opening ceremony.
The renowned pop star, aged 38, was observed arriving at a
Parisian hotel, as evidenced by videos circulating on social media platforms.
The musical lineup for the opening ceremony, which will be
held along the Seine River for the first time in Olympic history, has not yet
been fully disclosed.
Franco-Malian R&B artist Aya Nakamura is widely expected
to perform, despite criticism from far-right politicians such as Marine Le Pen,
who suggested that her appearance would “humiliate” France.
Also, Celine Dion has been spotted in Paris, which has given rise to speculation that she may potentially participate in either the opening or closing ceremony.
Regrettably, the renowned French electronic music duo Daft
Punk has declined an invitation to perform during the opening ceremony.
Additionally, the internationally acclaimed French DJ David Guetta has not been
selected to participate, which has apparently caused him significant
displeasure.
Approximately 6,000 to 7,000 athletes are anticipated to
participate in the ceremonial procession along a six-kilometer (four-mile)
segment of the Seine River. The procession will commence at the Austerlitz
Bridge in the eastern region and conclude at the Eiffel Tower, utilizing 85
barges and boats for transportation.
