The Rock en Seine festival, which takes place every year at the Domaine National de Saint-Cloud, kicked off its 20th edition with a major event: Lana Del Rey’s performance. The concert had been sold out for months, with 40,000 spectators present for the occasion. A look back at this exceptional show.

25 minutes late, but it was worth the wait, Lana Del Rey’s fans didn’t hold it against her. The singer, eagerly awaited, made her entrance on stage to a standing ovation, immediately plunging the audience into her poetic and nostalgic world. Accompanied by an enchanting decor, with flowers, a swing and projected images of iconic figures like Elvis and Marilyn Monroe. She then captivated the entire audience from the first notes of “Body Electric”.

Throughout the evening, Lana Del Rey performed her greatest hits, including “Summertime Sadness” and “Video Games,” as well as tracks from her latest album. Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd. Each song resonated with emotional intensity, revealing all the melancholy and sweetness that characterize her music. The audience, in communion with the singer, sang in unison “Young and Beautiful” making the atmosphere even more intimate, despite the immensity of the estate.

Some fans couldn’t hold back their tears, overwhelmed by the emotion of seeing their idol live. “I have chills, it’s a dream come true,” confided Célia, 21, who was attending her first Lana Del Rey concert. Like her, many others shared this moment, creating a unique atmosphere that only artists like Lana Del Rey can offer.

With this memorable opening, Rock en Seine version 2024 begins under the best auspices. The festival will continue until Sunday, welcoming other big names like LDC Soundsystem, Fred Again, Pixies and The Offspring. But for the 40,000 spectators on Wednesday night, the Lana Del Rey concert was undoubtedly the highlight of this edition.

Although there are several factors that determine the success or failure of an Olympic cycle, or of a participating delegation or country, medals always play an important role in measuring the work and effort of the Olympic Committees and continental organizations.

The United States, Canada, Brazil, Cuba, Jamaica, Ecuador, Argentina, Chile, Saint Lucia, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Dominica, Mexico, Colombia, Panama, Grenada, Puerto Rico and Peru won medals at these Olympic Games.

The United States once again demonstrated its supremacy as a world power. It had a close fight until the last day with China, but finally came out on top of the Paris 2024 medal table with a total of 126 medals: 40 gold, 44 silver and 42 bronze.

They were followed in the “continental medal table” by Canada with 27 total (9-7-11) and Brazil with 20 Olympic medals (3-7-10).

Paris also represented a historic Games for some delegations. Two countries won medals for the first time at a Games of the Rings. Dominica, with its athlete Thea LaFond gold in the triple jump, and Saint Lucia with Julien Alfred gold in the 100 and silver in the 200 metres in athletics, wrote their names in gold letters at this edition.

Guatemala also had a taste of glory at these Games. Adriana Ruano became the first athlete from that country to win an Olympic gold in shooting. In addition to her, Jean Pierre Brol won bronze in Trap, in a historic participation of that country.

Chile had Francisca Crovetto as the first woman in the history of that country to win a gold medal. She was joined by Yasmani Acosta in wrestling, in a medal haul that ended the drought of more than 16 years for Chileans in the Olympic Games.

The Dominican Republic also made history in Paris 2024. Not only by obtaining a total of 3 Olympic medals, but also because Marileidy Paulino became the first female athlete from that country to win a gold medal and, on top of that, with an Olympic record in the 400-meter dash.

Peru, with Stefano Peschiera, won an Olympic medal after 32 years, winning bronze in sailing, in the Dinghy specialty. Peru’s last medal had been in Barcelona 1992. La Tribuna.
