Paris Olympics 2024: Kangana Ranaut Calls Out Last Supper Rendition, Says 'Leftists Totally Hijacked...'
Kangana Ranaut criticized the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024 and expressed concern over inclusion of a child in performance. She also questioned the relevance of sexuality in Olympics.
Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut has slammed the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP, known for her outspoken nature, criticised the drag queen-themed apparent parody of "The Last Supper," a mural painting by Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci of Jesus and his apostles.
Taking to her Instagram stories, Kangana also spoke about her concern over the inclusion of a child in the 'hyper-s*xualized' performance, along with photos and videos from the ceremony.
"The Paris Olympics is under fire for including a *child* in their hyper-s*xualized, blasphemous rendition of The Last Supper. An apparent child could be seen joining the drag queens during the performance. They also showed a naked man painted blue as Jesus and mocked Christianity. Leftists totally hijacked Olympics 2024. Shame," she wrote along with a video from the ceremony.
In a series of posts on her Instagram stories, she claimed that at the Olympics opening, everything was about "being homosexual". She shared a photo of a man painted blue and wrote, “Naked body painted Christ at the Olympics opening in Paris (person facepalming emoji).”
"I am not against homosexuality but this is beyond me how Olympics is related to any sexuality? Why games, sports participation of all nations to claim human excellence being taken over by sex? Why can't sex stay in our bedrooms?? Why it has to be a national identity?.. This is bizzare," the Mandi MP added.
The Paris Olympics kick-started in the French capital with a nearly four-hour opening ceremony on Friday. But one drag act, featuring 18 performers, during the ceremony infuriated viewers around the world.
At first glance, the performance appeared to be nothing out of the ordinary, but it quickly became evident the display was a recreation of Leonardo da Vinci’s mural of Jesus and his Twelve Apostles.
The scene quickly went viral with social media users far and wide unleashing fury over the “insult” of Catholics the world over.
