Lady Gaga fans are not impressed with her sound problems during her performance of Mon Truc en Plumes at the 2024 Olympic Games opening ceremony, as she claims she sang in a ‘French-adjacent’ way

Lady Gaga fans were not impressed with her performance at the 2024 Olympic Games opening ceremony on Friday, after she suffered sound problems during her rendition of Mon Truc en Plumes.

The 38-year-old Bad Romance star sparkled in a black leotard and white feathers as she stepped onto the international stage.

But despite looking fantastic for her international appearance, viewers may have criticisms of the American star’s performance.

Fans of X, formerly known as Twitter, took to Twitter to say that her song must have been ‘her worst song ever’ and claimed that she sang in ‘French adjacent’, while criticizing the audio of the broadcast.

One of them wrote: ‘Great performance by Lady Gaga. Too bad the French forgot to do a soundcheck beforehand.’

‘Lady Gaga is performing for a not so big crowd in a stadium, but on a platform next to the river. The sound is terrible, the sound is just lost in the huge open space instead of being reflected by a stadium.’

‘Very famous FRENCH artist… uh… #LadyGaga. With a… Uhm… I don’t know what that performance was, but it must have been her worst ever. #OlympicGames #Paris2024’

‘Lady Gaga isn’t even f*****g French. This is like singing Bad Bunny while the Olympics were in Colombia’

‘The opening ceremony of the UK in 2012 was much praised but I liked what they did in the closing ceremony, the UK has so many hugely influential pop stars, just line them up. France should use Lady Gaga and pretend she speaks French.’

“Okay, but does Lady Gaga sing in French or French-adjacent?”

Lady Gaga opened the festival with a performance for 320,000 enthusiastic spectators along the banks of the Seine.

The choreographed parade kicked off at 6.30pm UK time, with the American superstar wowing the crowd with a stunning Folies Bergère-style cabaret performance.

Her spectacular performance began on a golden staircase with a series of dancers dressed in feathers, holding pom-poms that hid the face of the lead performer.

After teasing her presence by doing a spirited dance with only her endless legs visible, the feathers cleared and it was clear that the blonde beauty had arrived.

The Grammy winner sang the French song Mon Truc en Plume (My Thing with Feathers) for one minute.

At one point, she showed off her endless skills when she played the piano in honor of this year’s Games host country.

The star opted for an old-fashioned performance in the style of a Parisian cabaret show, emphasizing her movements at every opportunity and singing entirely in French, surrounded by a plume of pink feathers.

The opening ceremony began with a short film featuring French football legend Zinedine Zidan carrying the Olympic torch, before passing it on to local children who appeared in real life on the banks of the river.

Tonight, crowds poured from the windows of houses along the Seine as athletes prepared from the bridge for a huge flotilla of 85 boats carrying 6,800 athletes.

Spectators from the banks of the famous river – and from their armchairs around the world – were then able to enjoy a typically Parisian performance of the Cancan dance, with dancers dressed in pink lighting up the grey sky.

As the dance medley continues below on the riverbank, the Olympic torch is carried over the beautiful rooftops of the city by a freerunning athlete.

Meanwhile, more than 600,000 people attend the opening ceremony at the stadium, including a host of celebrities, including pop star Arianna Grande, tennis star Serena Williams and Hollywood king Stephen Spielberg.

Olympic organisers are hoping the rest of tonight’s ceremony will go smoothly after a “massive arson attack” earlier today caused chaos on the French rail network, leaving spectators and athletes stranded.

The ‘coordinated acts of malice’ on high-speed rail links across the Channel have caused chaos for sports fans, with serpentine queues forming outside St Pancras today as Eurostar trains were delayed or cancelled.

Eurostar has urged passengers to cancel their journeys today if they can. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer issued the same advice. He was sitting in one of the best seats in the stadium after flying to France instead of the planned route from St Pancras.

The Eurostar delays will last until Monday. One in four trains will be cancelled today and over the weekend. The city is expected to be flooded tonight.

But French authorities hope all will be forgotten when Lady Gaga returns to the stage to perform with Celine Dion during the four-hour ceremony, which is expected to be watched by more than a billion people.
