The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024 has sparked controversy with a drag queen-themed parody of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper." The performance, featuring a group of drag queens in a dramatic tableau with a makeshift halo and scantily dressed performers, was criticized for its perceived disrespect towards Christianity. Critics, including Elon Musk and French politician Marion Maréchal, condemned the act as offensive and provocative. The Olympic organizers defended it as an artistic interpretation meant to highlight the absurdity of violence, but the backlash continues to grow.
