The organisers of the Olympic Games in Beijing have announced that British singer Sarah Brightman will perform for the opening ceremonies, along with Chinese singer Liu Huan. The two will perform the official song of the 2008 Olympics.
This will be the second time for Brightman, 47, to perform at the Olympics. She sang Friends for Life with Jose Carreras for the 1992 Games in Barcelona.
Brightman has been very busy lately. After taking the stage in Beijing, she will begin a North American tour to promote her recent album, Symphony.
