Olympic and Paralympic opening ceremony choreographer Maud le Pladec explained to Variety why the performance was pre-recorded. 바카라�For safety reasons, we had to pre-record it once we knew for sure it was going to rain,바카라� Pladec said. 바카라�We had minute-by-minute updates and had never watched the weather forecast so closely in our lives.바카라�
