2024 Paris Olympics: See Beyoncé’s Special Appearance Introducing Simone Biles and Team USA
Beyoncé is crazy in love with Team USA.
The "Texas Hold 'Em" singer gave the athletes competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics a warm welcome in a new video celebrating the start of the Summer Games.
"Get a look at America, y'all," Beyoncé said in NBC's clip July 26. "These hopes and dreams, these superstars that represent us—the people of the big, bold, beautiful, complicated nation."
And Beyoncé's introduction of the squad, which included footage of USA athletes excelling in their individual sports, didn't end there. The Grammy winner, 42, went on to give a few "legends" special shoutouts, including track and field stars Noah Lyles and Sha'Carri Richardson and swimmers Caeleb Dressel and Katie Ledecky.
But her most heartwarming mention went to Simone Biles, who she referred to as "my girl."
"Born to fly," Beyoncé said of the gymnast. "Destined to inspire."
Noting that the "pride and joy" of all the athletes are what makes her "believe in this team," the Cowboy Carter artist added, "That's why I can't wait to see what they pull off over these next 16 days."
"America give it up for Team USA, the very best of who we are," she continued. "What a vision to behold, what a team to believe in, what a night to celebrate."
And while Beyoncé's message deserves a gold medal, she wasn't the only singer who has offered words of encouragement.
Céline Dion—who made her live performance comeback on the steps of Paris' Eiffel Tower for the July 26 Opening Ceremony—also shared her admiration for the athletes who are putting it all on the line in the Games.
"All of you have been so focused on your dream, and whether or not you take home a medal, I hope that being here means that it has come true for you!" Céline wrote in July 26 Instagram post. "You should all be so proud, we know how hard you have worked to be the best of the best. Stay focused, keep going, my heart is with you!"
