H.E.R. will sing the U.S. national anthem as part of Sunday’s closing ceremony of the Summer Olympic Games in Paris. The August 11 event will mark the official handover of hosting duties from Paris to Los Angeles.
The selection of the Grammy- and Oscar-winning R&B singer was announced during last night’s NBC coverage of the games when special correspondent and Olympics enthusiast Snoop Dogg dropped the news. “Can I announce who’s gonna be…?
Well, I’m a fan of H.E.R., and I would love for H.E.R. to perform the national anthem.” He then confirmed that H.E.R. will be performing the anthem.
