Beyonce is Team USA’s biggest hype woman.
The singer made a surprise appearance at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, which aired Friday night on NBC, where she introduced several American athletes.

“Look at America, y’all,” Beyoncé began, as her hit Ya Ya from her most recent album, Cowboy Carter, played in the background.
“These hopes and dreams, these superstars that represent us. The people of this big, bold, beautiful, complicated nation. All together for them. Come on, you gotta love Noah. [Lyles] and Sha’Carri [Richardson.] The fastest man and woman on the planet. They race around the world, whenever, wherever,” she continued.
