In a video set to Swift’s “Style,” the pop icon honors “three American stars, three different visions of greatness.”
No one is immune from fanning out over the Olympics, not even Taylor Swift.
The global superstar narrates a video honoring three of the 2024 Paris Olympics’ biggest stars: gymnast Simone Biles, swimmer Katie Ledecky, and sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson.

The video, shared over social media by NBC Olympics, opens with a quote from legendary Parisian designer Coco Chanel, “Every day is a fashion show and the world is your runway.” Then over the opening chords of her 2015 hit “Style” from her 1989 album, Swift narrates footage of the three Olympians.
“Never be afraid to show them who you are,” Swift says. “Especially when the whole world is watching. Because there’s no one way to be the best. No one way to inspire everyone else who will someday follow. You do what you love. You love what you do. You believe in your style, whatever it is.”

“Katie, Sha’Carri, and Simone,” Swift concludes. “Three American stars, three different visions of greatness, tonight in Paris.”
Ledecky cemented her status as the greatest female swimmer of all time with her ninth gold medal at the Paris Games, tying the record for most gold medals won by a woman, and advancing her record as the most decorated American woman in Olympics history.

Richardson, after being suspended from the 2021 Games, came roaring back in Paris, winning silver in the 100-meter dash.
And then there’s the G.O.A.T., Biles, who won her second all-around gold medal in gymnastics to the 2017 Swift single “…Ready for It?”, and ended her triumphant run at the 2024 Olympics by winning her 10th medal — she picked up three gold in Paris alone.
