The official Olympics website announced that Zhao Lusi has been chosen to be one of the torchbearers for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. There are torchbearers from many different nations among a lengthy list of participants, the majority of whom are French, including Zhao Lusi from China. This esteemed role highlights the Chinese actress-singer’s rising prominence and influence both domestically and internationally.
The 25-year-old actress began her career with prominent parts in indie web dramas before emerging as a dark horse in 2020 with her breakthrough performance in “The Romance of Tiger and Rose.” She has had great success over the last four years, starring in romantic dramas like “Hidden Love” and “Love Like the Galaxy” that came out last summer.
The Olympic flame will be carried by Zhao Lusi at the tenth station, which is located in the stunning Pyrénées-Orientales. This area is known as “Little Tuscany” because it is situated close to the Pyrenees Mountains and is sandwiched between the Atlantic and Mediterranean seas.
