Lady Gaga’s performance on her golden stairs on the banks of the Seine was already recorded in the afternoon. During the opening ceremony, the audience witnessed a completely different scene.
The first picture of the opening ceremony Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Lady Gaga’s performance was highly praised by viewers. The international actor appeared on the screen among ten actors and 17 singers. Dressed in pink feathers, he played the famous song “My thing is feathers” by Zizi Jeanmaire, on a golden staircase in the Square Barye, on the banks of the Seine. Except the sequence was not filmed live.
“People didn’t believe it at first,” testified a reporter from France 3 Paris Île-de-France. “We are at the front of the set Lady Gaga. And when the music starts, the staircase is empty.” The performance was actually filmed a few hours ago, on a Friday afternoon, under a warm sky.
“Some spectators are screaming”
At the time of Lady Gaga’s appearance on the screens, the singer was no longer on her stairs. Citizens on the banks of the Seine overlooking the square saw only a few dancers waving pink flags bearing the image of the Olympic Games. A France 3 reporter said: “Some businesses are screaming and regretting paying 180 euros to get nothing.
“I hope you enjoy this performance as much as I did,” Lady Gaga said after the opening ceremony on X. The American star thanked the French for their welcome, without any mention of the fact that she did not perform live. The Olympic organizing committee has not commented on this choice either.
