Lady Gaga recently fueled rumors regarding her potential performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony.
Speculation began on July 11 after French outlet Purepeople reported the news, and fans noticed that Thomas Jolly, the artistic director for the ceremonies, had followed Gaga on Instagram.
The rumors gained further traction when paparazzi photos emerged on July 22, showing Gaga and her longtime boyfriend, Michael Polansky, returning to their Paris hotel. A video also captured Gaga waving to fans from her car’s sunroof, adding to the intrigue.
As of now, there has been no official confirmation about Gaga's involvement in the Olympics. However, Gaga is confirmed to be working on her seventh studio album, as she announced during her Gaga Chromatica Ball concert film. This news has kept her fans excited amidst the ongoing rumors.
The 2024 Paris Olympics will kick off with the opening ceremony on Friday, July 26.
