Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, Beyoncé & More Light Up Paris for 2024 Summer Olympics

The 2024 Summer Olympics only kicked off on Friday, and already we’ve seen huge moments from Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, Beyoncé and more music A-listers.

It all started with the Opening Ceremony, which included all-French performances from Lady Gaga and Celine Dion, set in scenic landmarks across Paris, as well as a Team USA introduction from Beyoncé. Then we’ve seen music moments from Taylor Swift (her “Ready For It?” being used in an NBC Olympics ad), Snoop Dogg (he’s an NBC commentator), Flavor Flav (he’s the official sponsor and hypeman for women’s water polo) and Stray Kids (Mexican gymnast Alexa Moreno’s floor routine) too.

On the new Billboard Pop Podcast (listen below), Katie & Keith talk about all the music highlights from the summer games (so far).

Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how K-pop rules the top two positions on the Billboard 200 albums chart for the first time ever, as the latest releases from Stray Kids and BTS’ Jimin debut at Nos. 1 and 2. Also, in the top 10 of the Billboard 200, the Twisters soundtrack blows in at No. 7 with the year’s biggest week for any soundtrack. Plus, could Taylor Swift get a lucky 13th week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 next week with The Tortured Poets Department?
