After her star-studded performance embracing French cabaret glamour at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympics on Friday, Lady Gaga made a striking appearance on Sunday at the artistic gymnastics event, cheering on the legendary Simone Biles. While her outfit was a departure from the glitz of her previous look, Gaga’s footwear remained as bold and unforgettable as ever.
Lady Gaga opted for a laid-back ensemble that perfectly balanced comfort and style. She wore a blue zip-up jacket with “USA” across the front layered over a classic shirt, paired with black leggings.

Gaga completed her look with her tried and true towering patent leather Pleaser platforms. These shoes are nothing short of iconic, with their sky-high heels and distinctive design. The platforms, which feature a robust heel and a thick sole, added significant height to the pop superstar, ensuring she commanded the spotlight even from the stands.
For a pair of shoes big enough to take up a luggage on their own, Gaga is definitely justifying doing so by wearing the platform boots as much as possible while on her Paris trip. A day ahead of the opening ceremony, the “Bad Romance” singer wore the same sky-high platforms seen leaving her hotel. The towering height of the Pleaser platforms not only accentuates her already statuesque frame but also exudes a sense of confidence and boldness that Gaga is renowned for.
These platforms are more than just a fashion statement; they are a testament to Gaga’s fearless approach to style. The substantial heel and platform base provide stability despite their height, allowing her to move comfortably and confidently. The shoes’ patent leather finish adds a touch of glamour, ensuring that even in a more relaxed outfit, Gaga’s presence is anything but ordinary.
Lady Gaga’s ability to pair such extravagant footwear with a casual outfit demonstrates her unique fashion sensibility. The juxtaposition of the laid-back clothing and the dramatic shoes highlights her creativity and her commitment to making every appearance memorable.
