Celine Dion's showstopping 'live' performance at the start of the <br>
<br>
Paris 2024 Olympics 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) in front of the Eiffel Tower.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It was the culmination of a lavish Opening Ceremony mainly <br>
<br>
held along the banks of the River Seine - one that President Emmanuel Macron said 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 <br>
<br>
'without a shadow of a doubt' pre-recorded.<br>

In turn, representatives for the Paris 2024 organisers refused to <br>
<br>
answer questions on the scandal, despite previously insisting that <br>
<br>
the performance was indeed a live one.<br>

'What we heard on TV was a corrected playback,' composer and performer Etienne Guéreau told Liberation.<br>

In comments that were republished across French media, a sound <br>
<br>
engineer who asked to remain anonymous said: 'It was 100% playback, you can hear it from the first notes.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Others said it was 'without a shadow of a doubt' pre-recorded,<br>
<br>
as 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 <br>
<br>
and actual performance also sounded exactly the same - something that is technically impossible, as there will always be variations <br>
<br>
between any two versions of a live song.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Olympics performance was meant to be a triumphant comeback for Ms Dion, who has been battling <br>
<br>
the incurable stiff-person syndrome.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Hymne à L'amour was chosen because it was originally sung by the late French music icon Edith Piaf.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thousands of fans took to social media to praise Ms <br>
<br>
Dion, whose greatest hits include 'My Heart Will Go On', the theme from the Titanic movie.<br>

One said: 'Ok I'm proper emotional at Celine's performance, just wow!', while another gushed: 'Queen Celine is back and she sounds fantastic'.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It was in 2022 that Ms Dion disclosed that she <br>
<br>
had been diagnosed with the neurological disorder stiff-person syndrome which causes muscles to stiffen and spasm.<br>

Around 104,000 people paid for tickets to watch the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony live, with the best seats costing more <br>
<br>
than £2500.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Despite heavy rain, many sat through multiple acts, including a pre-recorded one by <br>
<br>
Lady Gaga, which was shown on multiple screens along the river,<br>
<br>
as well as around the world.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
But Ms Dion's performance was meant to be a live one,<br>
<br>
and it has just been released as such on various <br>
<br>
streaming platforms.<br>
<br>

<br>
Ms Dion announced on Instagram on Thursday that the 'live' recording was available on sites such as YouTube and Spotify.<br>

all at Paris 2024.<br>
