THIS Morning’s Craig Doyle and Jordan North have teased that Beyoncé could be performing at the Paris Olympics closing ceremony.
On Thursday’s episode of the ITV show, Jordan joined Craig and his co-host Josie Gibson to discuss all the latest showbiz news.
While discussing the Paris Olympics closing ceremony that’s set to take place on Sunday, Jordan said: “No sources on this, just a mate from work, but apparently Beyoncé might be performing as well.
“But don’t quote me on that. Just somebody’s said.”
Craig replied: “I can double up on that rumour, I did hear that as well.”
“Oh I love a rumour, let’s go,” Josie added.
Jordan then joked: “If she is there you heard it here first, just remember that.”
The closing event, set to be titled ‘Records’, will feature performances from world-famous acrobats as well as dancers and singers.
However, there has been no official confirmation about which stars will actually be performing.
Hollywood icon Tom Cruise is tipped to be performing a stunt at the spectacular event.
Sources have claimed the actor will do a “death defying stunt” on top of the stadium.
TMZ reported that a stunt section was shot in March and pre-taped for the ceremony.
Other names rumoured to be performing are Taylor Swift and US rapper Snoop Dogg.
