Lady Gaga got into the French spirit on Friday at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris with a stirring performance of the 1960s cabaret tune "Mon truc en plumes."

In an X post shortly after her performance, Gaga said she felt “honored” to be invited to sing the song as a way to honor the “French people and their great history of art, music and theater.”
