Kelly Clarkson is set to co-host the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
Clarkson will be joined by NFL hall of famer Peyton Manning and veteran NBC sportscaster Mike Tirico as hosts of the opening ceremony.
Paris is set to host the 2024 Summer Olympics, also known as the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad or Paris 2024, from July 26 to August 11, 2024.
“You know, Peyton hosted the Country Music Awards, Kelly’s one of the greatest of all time, so the three of us are going to do an album,” Tirico joked to “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon in introducing the three-headed hosting crew.
“I’m so glad we can say it. We’ve been holding this forever,” Clarkson said about the news.
The Paris Opening Ceremony will air on NBC and Peacock at noon ET on July 26. The ceremony will be held outside of a stadium on a nearly four-mile stretch along the Seine River in the heart of the French capital.
The Parade of Nations will be done with boats carrying athletes past landmarks, climaxing with the Eiffel Tower.
