2024 Olympics: Celine Dion Expected to Return to the Stage During Opening Ceremony

It’s time to say bonjour to the 2024 Olympic Games.

After all, the Opening Ceremony kicked off in Paris July 26, marking the official start to this year’s summer games. And it was an event to behold, becoming the first-ever waterborne ceremony in the Games’ history.

Indeed, Paris opted to forego the traditional stadium venue and instead send the 10,500 participating athletes in boats down the city’s Seine River.

Each country’s delegation was given its own boat equipped with individual cameras to allow for the close-up shots of athletes viewers at home have come to know and love.

And those viewers watching on NBC and Peacock were also treated to a ceremony hosted by Kelly Clarkson, NFL legend Peyton Manning and Sunday Night Football announcer Mike Tirico.

For the United States, leading the pack of almost 600 athletes—340 of whom are appearing at the Olympics for the very first time—were basketball’s Lebron James and tennis’ Coco Gauff, who were chosen as the team’s flag bearers.
