Despite the hiccups, Lady Gaga said she felt ‘so completely grateful’ to have performed at the opening of the Olympics as she took to social media afterwards to pay tribute to the country.
She wrote on X: ‘I feel so completely grateful to have been asked to open the Paris @Olympics 2024 this year.
‘I am also humbled to be asked by the Olympics organising committee to sing such a special French song-a song to honour the French people and their tremendous history of art, music, and theatre.
The crowd featured a host of world leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and Sir Keir Starmer, the recently-elected British Prime Minister.
The House of Gucci star also used her social media post to reveal how she had studied French choreography for the performance and how much of it was inspired by the country’s theatre scene.
She added: ‘We rented pom poms from Le Lido archive—a real French cabaret theater. We collaborated with Dior to create custom costumes, using naturally molted feathers.
‘I studied French choreography that put a modern twist on a French classic. I rehearsed tirelessly to study a joyful French dance, brushing up on some old skills’
‘I bet you didn’t know I used to dance at a 60’s French party on the lower east side when I was first starting out! I hope you love this performance as much as I do.’

One penned: ‘Great performance from Lady Gaga. Shame the French forgot to do a sound check beforehand.’
‘Lady Gaga performing to no large audience in a stadium but on a platform next to the river. The sound is awful, sound just getting lost in the vast open space rather than being reverberated around a stadium.’
‘Very famous FRENCH artist… uh… #LadyGaga. With a… Uhm… I don’t know what that performance was, but must have been her worst ever. #OlympicGames #Paris2024’
‘Lady Gaga ain’t even f*****g French. This is like if Bad Bunny sung while the Olympics were being held in Colombia’
Despite some fans feeling disappointed, others loved her appearance as they said she ‘slayed’ her ‘amazing’ performance.
