Nobody dreamed of it, but Arielle Dombasle did it anyway. As we know, the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games will take place in Paris between July 26 and September 8, with an opening ceremony scheduled for July 26 on the Seine. Who will perform? Rumors suggest the names of Celine Dion and Aya Nakamura who should cover Edith Piaf classics, while Cerrone is the first confirmed artist. For his part, David Guetta has not been contacted, and he is obviously very disappointed. There is another singer who should not be there, but who still wanted to contribute. It is Arielle Dombasle. A whimsical artist, evolving as much in music as in cinema, the singer of “Barbiconic” has just released a new song called “Olympics”, in order to celebrate the 2024 Olympic Games.

“Is this a joke? Aya come back!!!!”
« Release of my title “Olympics” which was chosen to welcome the Flame in Paris, at the Hôtel de Ville on July 14! ” rejoiced Arielle Dombasle, who wrote and performed this new song in ” tribute to the champions, to the first women gold medalists “, while co-signing the arrangements with Charly Voodoo and Dave Clarks. Indeed, live on France 2, the singer will chant her anthem on this Bastille Day for the arrival of the Olympic flame in Paris from 7:30 p.m. ” I am very moved and very honored to sing this ode to joy. My grandfather was the first diplomat to join General de Gaulle in London and the general asked him to found Free France in America! Which he did. As I am Franco-American, having lived in Mexico, I find it magnificent that Paris is, this summer, more international than ever. It is very beautiful to welcome countries from all over the world in this capital of France! What pride!! ” she says in an interview with 20minutes.
But her song “Olympics”, mixing lyrical and electro singing, and inspired by Beethoven’s “Seventh Symphony”, does not please everyone. Just like her very kitsch video, filmed at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris and already seen 250,000 times, in which Arielle Dombasle moves around amateur athletes, in computer-generated settings. Is this a joke? Aya come back!!!! », « Worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life. And I’m a medical examiner. », « Cops will play this stuff on repeat to make criminals confess », « I was warned that it was a purge but despite everything I was not ready. », « Arielle Dombasle is the snobby version of Afida Turner », « This song is more effective at scaring away bacteria in the Seine than all the work done », « A gold medal goes to all those who listened to the end. » or « Beethoven sent us an email, he said he is very happy to be deaf ” can be read in the comments on Instagram or YouTube.
