Who is the mystery torch bearer at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony?

Despite the rain’s attempt to steal the show at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games opening ceremony, the Olympic spirit prevailed, and the party was celebrated with full fervor.

The ceremony started at 1:30 p.m. E.T. and was filled with iconic moments and stellar performances by singers Céline Dion, Lady Gaga, Aja Nakamura, Juliet Armanet and the French band Gojira.

The athletes parading in the boats have undoubtedly been the main attraction, but the mystery torch bearer has also attracted the attention of those watching the event!

Who is the torch bearer at the Paris 2024 Olympic Ceremony?

The mysterious character first appeared in a boat to the music of the Phantom of the Opera and carried the Olympic torch for much of the ceremony. The mystery torchbearer walked across Paris’ rooftops, in the best style of the Assasins Creed game, and through iconic places like the Louvre and the Musee d’Orsay. As expected, its last stop was Place du Trocadéro, where many of us hoped that the torch bearer would reveal who was under the mask

His appearance has caused much speculation on social networks about who wanted to know the mysterious masked identity. Even Louis Vitton tweeted this on his X account about the torchbearer’s appearance to increase the doubts: “A masked torchbearer crosses the roofs and ateliers of the Maison at Pont Neuf, revealing the savoir-faire of the craftsmen of the #LouisVuitton Medals Trunks for the Olympic Games Paris 2024.” We can see that the mysterious person was none of the artists that have already participated in the ceremony.

Many speculations were created on social networks, where some users believed that the mysterious figure could be the singer Céline Dion. Others just joked that the person under the mask was Snoop Dogg. Unfortunately, all of us who wanted to know the mysterious figure’s identity will be left wondering since the masked figure only handed the Olympic torch to football legend Zinedine Zidane and left afterward without revealing who was under the mask!

Although there was some hope that the bearer would appear when the Olympic flame was lit, the mysterious figure did not show up again, and his identity will still remain a mystery!
