Billie Eilish has been confirmed as one of the major artists performing at the Olympics Closing Ceremony 2024, which will take place in France during the afternoon (in the United States) on Sunday, August 11.
Although the event is held in Paris, the singer will not be present in the city of the Games; instead, her performance will take place in Los Angeles, along with the performances by the rapper and the legendary rock band.
So far, it has not been announced which song she might perform or if it will be from her latest album. However, we could estimate that she may have been given a classic French song or, similar to what Celine Dion did.
How much will Billie Eilish be paid to sing at the Olympics?
Well, the Oscar-winning artist has not officially commented on how much money she will receive for her performance at the Olympics Closing Ceremony 2024. However, it can be estimated that it will be very similar to what Lady Gaga received at the opening.
The singer took home a hefty payment of $2 million and it is estimated that the pop star, who recently released her album “Hit Me Hard and Soft“, will have a figure in this range. For each live performance, it is believed she charges around $1 million.
Specialized media such as Variety and even the official Olympic website have reported that Billie Eilish will be one of the three major musicians performing at the closing event. Snoop Dogg and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are the other two who will each have their own shows.
