Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, Red Hot Chili Peppers to Perform at Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony

Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are set to perform at the Paris 2024 Olympics closing ceremony on Sunday.

Multiple sources said the trio will be seen from Los Angeles in a mix of pre-taped and live performances. 

Producer Ben Winston, who is no stranger to live music events as the producer of the Grammy Awards and CBS’ 2021 “Adele: One Night Only” special, is coordinating with French producers of the closing ceremony.

Tensions are high around live music events this week after authorities in Austria thwarted a terrorist attack plot during Taylor Swift’s planned three-night stand in Vienna with her “The Eras Tour.” 

Two high-ranking Individuals familiar with the planning for the surprise L.A. concert stunt said security and crowd control had been a point of concern for local officials even before the alarming news from Vienna. Security will have to account for potential threats from air, land, and sea in Los Angeles. 

At the closing ceremony, the musical performances from Los Angeles are expected to follow a much-hyped stunt from Tom Cruise. 

The acclaimed actor will jump on his motorcycle for an average day of death-defying tricks in France, before tossing to a prerecorded package that will see him parachute down next to the iconic Hollywood sign. The L.A.-affiliated musicians will take it from there.

At the end of Sunday’s Closing Ceremony, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass will accept the Olympic Torch and bring it home as she returns from Paris. As of next week, the city of Los Angeles has three years and 11 months to get ready for the Summer Games, which are scheduled to run from July 14 to July 30, 2028.
