Billie Eilish Performs Birds Of A Feather At Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony, Welcomes The Olympics To Los Angeles With Beachfront Performance

by

As a die-hard fan, I must say that Billie Eilish’s performance at the Paris Olympics closing ceremony was nothing short of breathtaking! The girl from Highland Park, Los Angeles, has come a long way since her humble beginnings, and it’s amazing to see her shine on such a grand stage.

A star-studded closing ceremony at the Stade de France, featuring performances by the biggest musicians, marked the end of the 2024 Paris Olympics on Sunday, August 11 in the French capital. Billie Eillish also gave a electrifying performance at he ceremony.  

The award-winning artist, age 22, captivated the audience with a stunning rendition of her most popular songs, dressed in an oversized white Ralph Lauren polo, a roomy navy baseball cap, baggy shorts, and bulky boots.

In a prelude to the 2028 Olympics taking place in her hometown, Los Angeles, Billie Eilish recently performed her new song “Birds of a Feather” from her latest album, Hit Me Hard and Soft.

Eilish’s third studio album, titled “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” was recently unveiled in May. The notable track, “Birds of a Feather,” has garnered significant attention on streaming platforms and charts, outshining her previously popular song “Lunch,” even without any prior single releases preceding the album.

Ever since her singles “Hit Me Hard” and “Soft” dropped, Billie Eilish has been tirelessly promoting them. She’s gearing up for her global tour that kicks off in Quebec on September 29, featuring three sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden in New York City and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. In December, she’ll likely be taking a short hiatus before resuming her tour in February with performances across Australia and Europe.

During the closing ceremony, Tom Cruise took an active role and performed several stunts before passing the torch to Los Angeles, symbolizing the city’s host status for the 2028 Olympic Games.

As a lifelong music enthusiast and admirer of resilience, I must say that the musical performances at this year’s Olympics have been nothing short of inspiring. Watching Celine Dion take the stage after battling Stiff Person Syndrome was a testament to her strength and determination. Her moving rendition of Edith Piaf’s “Hymne A L’Amour” was a triumphant comeback for her and a powerful reminder that even in the face of adversity, one can rise above and shine brighter than ever before. It is moments like these that remind us all of the power of music and the human spirit.
