Céline Dion has made a triumphant return to the stage at the 2024 Paris Olympics, marking her first performance since revealing her battle with Stiff Person Syndrome. The iconic singer, adorned in a stunning beaded white gown with tassels, delivered an incredible and emotional 3 and 1/2 minute solo performance amid the rain and the majestic backdrop of the Eiffel Tower.

The 56-year-old diva's powerful vocals left the audience, including commentator Kelly Clarkson, speechless. Clarkson was quoted saying, "I actually can't talk," showcasing the profound impact of Dion's performance. This event marked a significant comeback for Céline Dion, who had been away from the stage for nearly four years.

Adding to the excitement of the evening, Lady Gaga wowed the crowd with a last-minute rehearsal for her 5-minute long, quick-changing, piano-playing aerial solo. The energy was palpable as Gaga flashed the peace sign to adoring fans, with her son Renee Charles in tow.

The 2024 Paris Olympics have been a magnet for celebrities, with NBC commentator Snoop Dogg carrying the torch and partying with stars like Charlize Theron and Zac Efron. Flavor Flav, the official sponsor for the US Women's Water Polo Team, shared his enthusiasm for the event, saying, "My duties are to be in the crowd and be loud."

The musical extravaganza continued as Flavor Flav showcased his piano skills at the US ambassador's residence, revealing, "I've been playing piano almost all my life, and they said yes. I was not passing up that opportunity."

Meanwhile, Colin Jost, husband of Scarlett Johansson, reported live from French Polynesia, covering the surfing competition for NBC. The avid surfer shared a minor but bloody accident, humorously noting the lack of sympathy from his wife, "Go to Tahiti, honey, and have a great time. I'll be with the kids and working."

Céline Dion's stage return was nothing short of spectacular, embodying resilience and determination. This unforgettable night has set the tone for an exhilarating Olympic season.
