PARIS – Franco-Malian R&B superstar Aya Nakamura, the most listened to French-speaking singer in the world, performed at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony on Friday, defying criticism from far-right activists.

Far-right politicians and conservatives had accused the 29-year-old singer, best known for her hit "Djadja," of "vulgarity" and disrespecting the French language in her lyrics.
