Christian Celebs Respond to Olympics Drag ‘Last Supper’
By Movieguide® Staff
Even the Olympic Committee apologized for the deeply offensive portrayal of the Last Supper by drag performers, which drew criticism from Christians worldwide from celebrities to the Church at large.
“Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. [The opening ceremony] tried to celebrate community tolerance,” Paris 2024 spokesperson Anne Descamps said at a news conference. “We believe this ambition was achieved. If people have taken any offense, we are really sorry.”
The apology is nothing more than a band-aid attempt to repair what was clearly a mockery of the Christian faith.
Many Christian celebrities took to Instagram to share their thoughts:

“Be not deceived, God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. For he that soweth in his flesh, of the flesh also shall reap corruption. But he that soweth in the spirit, of the spirit shall reap life everlasting.”

The Paris Olympics are under fire for their blasphemous rendition of The Last Supper. A child could be seen joining the drag queens during the performance. Outrageous and disrespectful doesn’t begin to cover it. pic.twitter.com/uEzJB0uIKE
