When we watched the 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony, we all wondered how the producers could top it for the closing event. Well, they certainly did not hold back.
While the opening was highlighted by performances from Lady Gaga and Celine Dion, the closing ceremony is equally star-studded. Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and The Red Hot Chili Peppers were chosen to transition from the 2024 Paris Games to the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

Tom Cruise’s estimated earnings for the 2024 Olympics Closing Ceremony

According to TMZ, Cruise approached the International Olympic Committee with the idea of performing a series of stunts to mark the transition from Paris to Los Angeles. Given this, there is a strong possibility that Cruise is not charging a fee for his performance.
A-list celebrities often participate in such high-profile events as a form of exposure, and the scale of the Olympics provides significant visibility. The “Top Gun” star will captivate millions of viewers, further enhancing his legendary status.
However, if Cruise were to be paid, it is likely he would receive between $1 and $2 million—similar to what Celine Dion and Lady Gaga reportedly earned for their performances, and what is rumored to have been offered to Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Still, there are also strong rumors that none of these stars have been paid for their involvement in the event. So, what Cruise might have received could range from $0 to millions.
Considering the reported cost of the Opening Ceremony, it’s clear that the production team behind the closing show has no financial constraints when it comes to securing top-tier talent. Certainly, this closing performance will be remembered as one of the best spectacles in the history of the Olympics!
