The Paris 2024 Olympic Games are now over, and the closing ceremony took place this Sunday, August 11.

Among the eagerly awaited stars, the names Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg and the Red Hot Chili Peppers were everywhere, and for good reason.

There had been much speculation about the closing ceremony for the Paris 2024 Games. Orchestrated once again by Thomas Jolly as artistic director, the ceremony featured a number of French celebrities, but above all Americans in keeping with the Games' next host: Los Angeles.
