The Paris Olympics begin this week. Some events, such as the soccer, have already started, but the opening ceremony is due tomorrow (July 26), followed by the bulk of the sporting action.
Two of the French diving team went viral with a photo they posted yesterday to social media.
Alexis Jandard, 27, and Jules Bouyer, 21, will be competing together in the men’s synchronized 3m dive. They posted a photo of themselves, wearing their Speedos, and standing in the poolside showers. Their simple caption said, “Welcome to @Paris2024”

It has left people thirsty for some… erm, Olympian action.

Tom Daley to carry flag
One of the most high-profile divers in the competition is, of course, out-gay diver Tom Daley. It’s his fifth, and surely final, Olympic games.
Yesterday, it was announced he would be one of Team GB’s flag bearers, alongside rower Helen Glover. Look out for him during the Opening Ceremony.
Daley also posted a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the Olympic pool and training facilities. Enjoy it below. Daley adds that he competes on Monday.
The Olympics Opening Ceremony takes place tomorrow from 2.30pm ET. The games will air on NBC in the US, with some events on NBCUniversal-owned channels such as USA Network, E!, CNBC, GOLF Channel and Universo.
Celine Dion and Lady Gaga are both in Paris and are strongly rumored to be taking part in the opening ceremony. The Guardian speculates they will perform a duet together.

No disrespect meant to Daley or anyone who likes him, but I could never understand the appeal, personally. Now these, guys, heck yes… and Alexandre Despatie? Yum. I still say outside of maybe wrestling, diving is the most homoerotic sport. Speedos that almost come off when they hit the water… adjusting themselves getting out, taking a shower and then going in the hot tub with the other divers? I mean, come on now…

Oh la la la.. I feel like a long dip in the pool….

Personally, I am on edge about the Olympics this year. I just don’t trust that the French or Parisian security is going to be adequate. I hope all the best for the athletes; that is is a safe and empowering experience.
