Tune in for the Paris Olympics' opening with Lady Gaga, Céline Dion, and many others!

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is always a fabulous TV moment. For the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, on Friday, July 26, Lady Gaga is one of the performers.

For European viewers, the time is 7:30 pm, while Americans can tune into the opening ceremony at 1:30 pm Eastern time and 10:30 Pacific time.

Days before the opening ceremony, when her participation had not yet been confirmed, the American star was already seen in the streets of Paris.

In this photo, which quickly circulated on social media, many internet users believed they recognized Lady Gaga. She's the one who performed 'La Vie en Rose' - a song by Édith Piaf - in the film 'A Star is Born'. If it was, indeed, Lady Gaga, it must be a photo that shows her rehearsing on her piano near the river Seine.

Paris Match magazine also reports that the singer was seen with her companion Michael Polansky in the Royal Monceau, a Parisian palace located a stone's throw from the Arc de Triomphe.

And guess what? She is not the only international star currently staying in this hotel!

Accompanied by her son René-Charles, Céline Dion arrived at the prestigious hotel, the Royal Monceau, on Tuesday, July 23. Her return to France ignited rumors about her possible performance at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics.

Seeing the Canadian superstar sing during the opening ceremony of the Olympics is an event in its own right. As she suffers from stiff person syndrome, Céline Dion has not been on stage since the beginning of 2020.

However, with the announcement of her residency in Las Vegas, earlier this week, we can assume that Céline Dion is ready to get back to work again.

Although nothing was confirmed, the RTL channel noted a few days before the ceremony that the Quebec singer had a "fitting" appointment with the fashion house Dior on the afternoon of July 23. So the buzz of her upcoming performance got stronger and stronger.

Paris has been very careful about its preparation for the Games, many of them in the middle of the city, as well as the opening ceremony, about which little has been known. Asked on June 26 about a possible participation of Céline Dion in the opening ceremony, the French Minister of Sports, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, called it "a solid hypothesis", without providing more details.

According to information from RTL, Céline Dion performs 'L'Hymne à l'Amour' ('The Hymn to Love') by Édith Piaf during the opening ceremony.

Another name that has circulated in recent months for the opening ceremony is that of the French artist Aya Nakamura. The French-Malian songwriter could make her international breakthrough this way.

The artist was targeted by a far-right campaign on social media a few months ago. She received the support of President Emmanuel Macron, who said that the singer would "completely fit" the opening ceremony.

The director of the show, Thomas Jolly, has not said much about the content of the show, but one thing is certain: several artists will be opening Paris 2024 on the stage at the Seine.

In addition, among the torchbearers earlier this month was Jin from BTS, representing South Korea. He walked the streets of Paris on July 14 with the legendary torch.

All in all, the ceremony is a star-studded event capable of drawing more than a billion viewers worldwide. Will you be one of them?
