U.S. Olympic Team Arrives In Style For The 2024 Paris Olympics
The 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony took place today, marking a memorable and epic moment for the U.S. Olympic team. LeBron James and Coco Gauf were the flag bearers, leading the rest of Team USA, floating down the Seine dressed in Ralph Lauren.
The picture above went viral, capturing an epic moment of LeBron holding the U.S. flag with Coco Gauf setting the internet on fire. It looked like General LeBron was leading his army across Delaware; it was just an epic moment, whether you are a fan of the Olympics. The rain only added to the excitement for Team USA, making the boat ride even more epic. Team USA will have the most athletes competing in these Olympics with 592 across 329 medal events and 32 sports.
Lady Gaga also took the stage, echoing the original “Mon Truc En Plume” and Cabaret. Along with costumes by Dior and Yves Saint-Laurent, footage of Notre Dame, scenes from Les Misérables, the Mona Lisa, and the Louvre showcased Paris’s rich artistic heritage during the 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony. Tony Estanguet, president of Paris 2024, highlighted that the ceremony aimed to present France’s boldness, creativity, avant-garde spirit, and openness to the world.
The Olympics and TV rights always make sharing clips on Social Media challenging. Clips either get taken down due to copyright claims or sometimes, they won’t even let you post content. Either way, this has been one of the coolest opening ceremonies we have seen and France did a great job. We have gathered some of the best reactions from around X from the opening ceremony, and you can catch them below. NBC has the TV rights, and they are posting clips on their YouTube channel. You can watch Lady Gaga’s performance and Celine Dion’s incredible return to close the opening ceremony.
