PARIS– HER will perform during the closing ceremony at Paris Olympics.
THE five-time Grammy winner is expected to sing the US national anthem live at the Stade de France as part of the move to the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Olympics.
HER has won Oscar, Emmy and Grammy awards during his decorated career. The 27-year-old from California won the Grammy for song of the year in 2021 for his protest anthem “ I can’t breathe.”
That same year, she took home best original song for the moving “Fight for You” from the “Judas and the Black Messiah” soundtrack at the Oscars. She co-wrote both songs. The singer also wrote the Netflix animated series “We the People,” which won her an award at the Children’s and Family Emmys.
HER starred in the 2023 adaptation of “The Color Purple” produced by Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg. She made an appearance as a guest artist alongside Usher in the Super Bowl halftime show in February.
Los Angeles will host the Olympics for the third time, with previous Games being held there in 1984 and 1932. It will be the first time the city has hosted the Paralympics.
