Celine Dion's showstopping 'live' performance at the start of the Paris 2024 Olympics <br> <br> was pre-recorded, it was claimed in France today.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Millions were moved to tears when the 56-year-old <br> <br> Canadian superstar sang Hymne à L'amour (Hymn to Love) <br> <br> in front of the Eiffel Tower.<br> <br> <br> <br> It was the culmination of a lavish Opening Ceremony mainly held along the banks of <br> <br> the River Seine - one that President Emmanuel Macron said <br> <br> was the 'emotional highlight' of the sporting extravaganza.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> But on Friday, the highly respected Liberation newspaper quoted multiple music industry experts who said the July 26th performance was 'without a shadow of a <br> <br> doubt' pre-recorded.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Celine Dion performing on the Eiffel Tower during the <br> <br> opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Millions were moved to tears when the 56-year-old Canadian superstar sang Hymne à L'amour (Hymn to Love) in front of <br> <br> the Eiffel Tower<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> A grab of a video shows Canadian Singer Celine Dion performing on the Eiffel Tower during the opening ceremony of the <br> <br> Paris 2024 Olympic Games<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> In turn, representatives for the Paris 2024 organisers refused to answer questions on the <br> <br> scandal, despite previously insisting that the performance was indeed a live one.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> 'What we heard on TV was a corrected playback,' composer and performer Etienne Guéreau told Liberation.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Read More<br> <br> <br> <br> Celine Dion, 56, gets SOAKED with Gatorade<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> In comments that were republished across French media, a sound engineer who asked to remain anonymous said:<br> <br> 'It was 100% playback, you can hear it from the first <br> <br> notes.'<br> <br> <br> <br> Others said it was 'without a shadow of a doubt' pre-recorded, as <br> <br> was a performance by Ms Dion in rehearsals.<br> <br> <br> <br> A YouTuber musician who uses the name Wings of Pegasus said the rehearsal and actual performance also sounded exactly the same -
