Lady Gaga has arrived in Paris ahead of the 2024 Olympics, and fans think she’s there for more than the croissants.
On Monday (July 22), the pop superstar was photographed waving and blowing kisses to fans in the City of Light as she stood next to her car, dressed in a low-key baseball cap, sunglasses and leathery jacket. A fan video captures Gaga greeting admirers while peeking out of the vehicle’s sunroof, holding up a hand heart.
The sighting comes a few days after the Olympics appeared to tease a special guest at the 2024 Opening Ceremony, which kicks off Friday (July 26), by posting a cryptic video featuring a person in disguise that many thought to be the 13-time Grammy winner. In the clip, a hooded figure tightens their metallic belt and wraps a large flag with the ancient sporting event’s logo on it around their shoulders as a cape.
“You haven’t seen anything yet,” the video teases. “See you on 26 July.”
“I told y’all this [was] GAGA,” one fan wrote of the clip on X after photos of the singer in Paris surfaced.
“gaga probably gonna perform LG7 lead at the olympics girl we are SOOO back,” another person tweeted.
Gaga’s trip to France comes in the midst of her teasing that her upcoming seventh album is in the works. A few days prior, she shared photos from the studio and wrote, “Happy as ever making music … feel so grateful, heart is peaceful. It’s like meditation. I can’t wait for you to hear what I’m working on.”
The star is also closing in on the release of Joker: Folie à Deux, in which she stars as Harley Quinn opposite Joaquin Phoenix in the titular role. A teaser trailer for the dark movie musical dropped earlier this year, promising an Oct. 4 theatrical release date.
