The 2024 Paris Summer Olympics have come to an end. The Olympics are a time when artists and athletes collide. We’re recapping the biggest moments between artists and athletes from the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. The Olympics kicked off with two incredible performances from Lady Gaga and Celine Dion during the opening ceremony. And after the opening ceremony, Queen Bey herself introduced Team USA with her ‘Cowboy Carter’ track “YA YA.”
Beyoncé:

Flavor Flav:
You know my girl on the water polo team. My name is Maggie Steffens, you know, she put out a story, you know what I’m saying, and my manager turned me on to the story. So when I read the story, I said to myself, “Let me try to help these girls out and get the glory.”
