Céline Dion sings “L’hymne à l’amour” in Paris

Quebec singer Céline Dion closed the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The star was in full voice for this first public performance since she admitted to suffering from a degenerative disease. Her interpretation of the Edith Piaf classic was grandiose.

The opening ceremony was spectacular. The Olympic flame flying under a hot-air balloon, the Eiffel Tower illuminated with lasers and lights, the athletes parading on the Seine – many powerful images will remain engraved from this extraordinary ceremony.

The Paris 2024 Olympic Games will take place over the next 16 days.
