Organisers of the Paris Olympics issued a statement where they apologised for 'The Last Supper' parody which took place during the opening ceremony. The grand curtain raiser event was a first in Olympics history as it was held outside of a stadium but drew criticism from fans for a banquet sequence which featured drag artists and dancers. The segment came under criticism from several groups, including Christians, who condemned the same, stating that it was a mockery of the religion. Anne Deschamps, a spokesperson of the Olympics explained the meaning behind the sequence, stating it was to celebrate community tolerance. "If people have taken any offence we are really sorry," she added. Olympics Remove Its Paris Olympic Games 2024 Opening Ceremony Video Featuring Drag Queens From YouTube After Receiving Backlash From Viewers.
