Tom Cruise’s Olympic closing Ceremony is considered a teaser, as next year’s Olympics will take place in Hollywood. It also comes as no surprise that Cruise is one of the few actors who loves to perform his own stunts.
The stunt didn’t end there, Cruise raced to a motorcycle waiting for him and, in an action movie star fashion, hopped on and fired it up. Video screens showed the actor even riding through the streets of Paris with the Olympic flag as he headed for the airport.
The Hollywood actor was just one highlight at the Olympics Closing Ceremony. Billie Eilish took the stage, performing “Birds of a Feather” alongside her brother, Finneas, from a lifeguard tower. Following her set, Snoop Dogg hit the beach with a lively rendition of “Drop It Like It’s Hot,” and Dr. Dre kept the energy going with “The Next Episode.”
