It has been quite the Olympics season, with athletes from all around the world setting their respective arenas on fire with their performances. After an opening ceremony that had all eyes glued, especially as it was not just held out of a stadium but also on a river in Paris, as the parade moves to Los Angeles, the stakes are quite high. While it is unclear what else the city has planned, news of it putting its best soldiers to work has surfaced.

 As the Summer Olympics 2024 wraps up, Los Angeles is setting itself up to hold the next ceremony. Known for its cinematic flare, the city is gearing up for a spectacular handover orchestrated by Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

With the Hollywood sign hanging off a mountain, Los Angeles could not be any more obvious to its key element. Therefore, as the curtain falls on the Summer Olympics in Paris, even before the eyes turn to Los Angeles, the city has put forth its best by curating a phenomenal handover headlined by Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, as per Variety. The artists will amp up the ante with both live and pre-taped performances, with Ben Winston, the man himself producing the ceremony.

The key ingredients that Los Angeles has chosen for its Michelin star recipe have all proven themselves not just through various accolades, and chart-topping tracks, but most importantly, through highly rejuvenating performances. Moreover, with Ben Winston's resume boasting of Adele: One Night Only special, all is set for the spectacle of a lifetime.

One look at the holy trinity that has been handed the mantel of responsibility makes it clear that only the best of the best made the cut. Although a different game field, this will be Billie Eilish's shiniest badge of honor, especially as she levels up with Taylor Swift.

The music industry has been a series of fan wars over the past few months. While things were already wilding on the rap industry front with Kendrick Lamar coming for Drake's neck, fans of Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish herself did not fall too far behind as they engaged in mud thrashing. What started off as an accusation towards Swift trying to steal Eilish's thunder has now turned into an all out rivalry, in which the latter may have gone up by ten points now.

That Billie Eilish is a phenomenal performer is clear by the bagful of awards she walks out of from the Grammys and the Oscars, but the same is true for Taylor Swift. However, as Swift only featured in a promo video celebrating the female athletes of the United States and Eilish goes on to perform at the handover, the chances of a clear winner emerging are getting higher.
