H.E.R. To Perform National Anthem At Summer Olympics Closing Ceremony in Paris

H.E.R. will perform the National Anthem at Sunday's (August 11) closing ceremony for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris during the LA28 hand-off.

The five-time Grammy winner will take the stage at the Stade de France on Sunday (August 11) to sing the U.S. National Anthem as part of the elaborate handover to the next host city, Los Angeles in 2028. Unlike the unique opening ceremony that took place along the Seine River with performances from Lady Gaga, Celine Dion and French metal band Gojira, the closing will be in the stadium that has hosted the track and field and other events. The closing ceremony will also reportedly include performances from Snoop, as well as fellow L.A.-based stars Billie Eilish and the Red Hot Chili Peppers in a mix of live and pre-taped bits.
