Tom Cruise appeared live in the stadium and sent the crowd wild (Image: BBC) Olympics enthusiasts were left less than impressed with the LA segment during tonight's closing ceremony. The spectacle concluded with Tom Cruise making a dramatic exit by leaping from the top of the Stade de France , then weaving through the crowd on a motorcycle to retrieve the Olympic flag for its journey back to Los Angeles. However, the mood soured for some when Tom appeared in a video segment transporting the flag to the iconic Hollywood sign.

Subsequently, performances by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish, and Snoop Dogg broadcasted from a Californian beach failed to lift spirits, as viewers expressed their discontent over the lack of live entertainment for the athletes and stadium audience. One viewer lamented: "Would be a bit disappointing to be in the Paris stadium and then to have the USA handover so far consist of a pre recorded Tom Cruise video package and now the live performances of Red Hot Chilli peppers and Billie Eilish on the stadium screens #ClosingCeremony," while another questioned: "Nice handover and gig in LA. Are there large screens in the Stade de France? Asking for 90,000 people.
