The iconic West Coast duo performed their hit “The Next Episode” on Venice Beach at the handover ceremony as the Olympic flag made its way across the Atlantic for LA 2028.
Earlier in the evening, H.E.R. delivered a stunning rendition of the “Star Spangled Banner” as Tom Cruise repelled down the Stade de France to take the Olympic flag from L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and Simone Biles. He rode off on a motorcycle as a video played showing the rest of his adventures through Paris before jumping out of a plane in L.A. and decorating the Hollywood sign with the Olympic rings.
The performance then transitioned back to a live feed in Los Angeles, in which the band played “Can’t Stop” at Venice Beach. The Red Hot Chili Peppers and Billie Eilish joined in the festivities before Snoop Dog performed “Drop It Like It’s Hot.” He then surprised the crowd with Dr. Dre to round off an impressive Olympic closing ceremony.
