Lady Gaga went full French chic for her performance of "Mon Truc en Plumes" at the 2024 Paris Olympics on July 26, and it's very much giving can-can in the best way! The Grammy-winning singer, 38, hit the stage along the River Seine wearing a full Dior Haute Couture look featuring a black feather jacket over a black satin bustier and panties. The pièce de résistance of the fashion moment was the black-and-pink skirt embroidered with feathers and sequins. She also wore a Dior headpiece, gloves and shoes. At the end of her performance, the superstar ditched the skirt to reveal a second look, featuring a Dior black satin bustier and briefs with a white feather pompom which honored the Cabaret vibe of the performance. Gaga's dancers were also dressed in Dior. Even more French flair came from their pink feathered props that they danced with, as they came down the majestic staircase inspired by that of the Grand Palais. An official Opening Ceremony press release provided to people shared that Gaga's segment honored the "cabarets, music halls and revues of which France is the birthplace." Lady Gaga at the Olympics.

Following her performance, Lady Gaga took to Instagram to show her gratitude to the Olympics organizing committee for asking her to take part in the opening ceremony. She also gave fans an inside look at what went into her very French performance. "We rented pom poms from Le Lido archive—a real French cabaret theater. We collaborated with Dior to create custom costumes, using naturally molted feathers. I studied French choreography that put a modern twist on a French classic. I rehearsed tirelessly to study a joyful French dance, brushing up on some old skills—I bet you didn’t know I used to dance at a 60’s French party on the lower east side when I was first starting out!" she wrote.

On July 24, she was seen outside her hotel in relaxed-fit jeans and an oversize blazer. While the outfit was très unusual for her, the platinum blonde hairstyle and bold red lip was right on target for the "Poker Face" singer. It’s rare for the Haus Labs founder to be wearing denim and it seems like the last time she dusted off her skinnies was at the 2023 Oscars, where she performed a powerful performance of Top Gun: Maverick track “Hold My Hand” in a black T-shirt and ripped jeans.

In the clip, the mystery figure is seated and disguised head to toe in shiny armor while ominous music plays in the background. They then buckle up their belts and pull the Olympic flag across their back like a cape as they walk off into the distance. “You haven’t seen anything yet,” the video teased. “See you on 26 July.” To learn more about all the Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls, come to people.com to check out ongoing coverage before, during and after the games.
