Paris Olympics Faces Outrage Over ‘Hyper-Sexualised and Blasphemous’ Drag Act Involving Child

Paris, July 27, 2024 – The opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics, intended to be a grand celebration of global unity and athleticism, has instead sparked widespread outrage due to a controversial drag performance involving a child. The act, which many believe to reimagine The Last Supper, has been widely condemned online as “hyper-sexualised” and “blasphemous.”

The ceremony, which featured high-profile artists such as Lady Gaga and Aya Nakamura, took a controversial turn with this performance, dividing public opinion. Critics have taken to social media to express their disapproval, with many labeling the act as an “insult towards Christians.” The performance included a portrayal that seemed to replace Jesus and his disciples with drag queens, stirring significant backlash.

Online users did not hold back their criticism. One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “This is crazy. Opening your event by replacing Jesus and the disciples at The Last Supper with men in drag. There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate NOT WELCOME.” Another user described the event as having “gone full Woke dystopian,” condemning it as filled with “transgend*r mockery of the Last Supper, the Golden Calf idol, and even the Pale Horse from the Book of Revelation.”


Despite the outrage, officials of the Paris Olympics have yet to confirm that the performance was indeed a reinterpretation of The Last Supper. They stated that the act was a modern take on the Greek god Dionysus, meant to portray “the absurdity of violence between human beings.” However, this explanation has not quelled the criticism from many who viewed it as a clear insult to religious beliefs.

Prominent figures, including Tesla owner Elon Musk, also reacted to the controversy. Musk labeled the performance as “extremely disrespectful to Christians.” French politician Marion Maréchal expressed solidarity with offended viewers, asserting that the act did not represent France but a “left-wing minority ready for any provocation.”

The Paris Olympics, which began with a vibrant parade of athletes from 206 nations, now faces a heated debate over artistic expression and respect for religious sentiments.
