The 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony was a night to remember, with powerful solo performances by music icons Lady Gaga and Celine Dion. Although early reports from French media and TMZ suggested a duet of “La Vie En Rose,” the artists took the stage separately, delivering unforgettable performances.
Lady Gaga kicked off the celebration with a stunning rendition of “Mon Truc En Plumes,” a classic originally performed by French ballet dancer and musician Zizi Jeanmaire in the 1960s. Her vibrant performance set the tone for the evening.
Celine Dion’s Emotional Return: Performing “Hymne a l’amour” Amidst Health Struggles
Following the lighting of the ceremonial cauldron, Celine Dion took the stage for an emotional cover of “Hymne a l’amour,” leaving NBC anchors and viewers worldwide in tears. This performance was especially poignant as it marked Dion’s first appearance since her diagnosis with stiff-person syndrome. This chronic neurological disorder causes severe muscle stiffness and spasms, affecting her vocal cords and ability to sing.
Fans have gained insight into Dion’s battle with stiff-person syndrome through the Prime Video documentary, I Am: Celine Dion. The special offers a behind-the-scenes look at her illustrious career and her struggles with the illness. One particularly emotional scene captures Dion attempting to sing a new song but suffering a prolonged seizure, followed by a performance of Wyn Starks’ “Who I Am.”
Despite rumors, Lady Gaga and Celine Dion did not perform “La Vie en Rose,” the beloved French classic by Edith Piaf. Gaga’s rendition of the ballad in the 2018 film A Star Is Born is still fondly remembered. It remains unclear whether the duet was canceled last minute or if the rainy weather played a role.
The 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony was a celebration of resilience and talent, highlighted by Lady Gaga and Celine Dion’s remarkable solo performances.
