The Paris 2024 Olympic Games have finally arrived.
Athletes from around the world have gathered in the City of Lights, preparing for the coveted summer competition that will begin when the Olympic torch is lit.
On July 26, more than 10,000 competitors from around the world will join a cast of cheering fans watching the opening ceremony from the banks of the River Seine, where a parade of 100 boats will take each team down the narrow waterway for the first time in Olympic history.
Among the eager spectators who traveled from Paris and abroad are a handful of celebrities excited to see the opening ceremony, which included a standout performance by Lady Gaga and possibly another by Celine Dion. Celebrities and established designers have already trod the red carpet for the Prelude to the Olympic Games party on July 25 at the Louis Vuitton Foundation. But others are making their Olympic debut at today's opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony turned out to be a family affair for Legend and Teigen. The “All of Me” frontman looked laid-back and casual in a black suit over a white button-down shirt. Meanwhile, Teigen donned a matching army green jacket and micro shorts with open-toed, lace-up heels at the opening ceremony entrance.
