Prosecutors in Paris have launched an investigation into the harassment of Thomas Jolly, the artistic director by the Olympics opening ceremony.
The investigation was launched, the Paris prosecutor’s office said, after Jolly filed a police complaint on Tuesday, July 30 . Jolly said he’d been subjected to death threats, “public insults,” and “defamation” and has been “the target of threatening messages and insults on social networks criticizing his sexual orientation and his wrongly-assumed Israeli roots.
It was Jolly’s intention to deliver a maximalist display that leaned into French clichés and stereotypes. In a previous, we know it’s not quite the real Paris. We’re going to play with all those cliches, but we’re also going to challenge them. Paris is also a vibrant youth. Different cultures rubbing shoulders in the streets.”
But, unsurprisingly, not everyone appreciated the spectacle, especially those on the right. For instance, controversial men’s rights figure Andrew Tate: “It’s none of that. It’s French history. It’s French charm, you know, beheaded people, red wine, and blood all over the place — it’s romantic, it’s normal.”
There was additional uproar over a scene featuring drag queens and dancers at a long table that some argued was a reference to Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” and, thus, insulting to Christians. Donald Trump evenon this one, calling the scene a “disgrace” and saying if he was elected president again, there’d be no such mockery of “The Last Supper” at the 2028 games in Los Angeles. by the painting.
Jolly is actually the second person to file a police complaint over alleged online harassment related to the opening ceremony after Barbara Butch — a popular DJ and LGBTQ activist who performed during the misinterpreted “Last Supper” scene —Rob Schneider Claims the Olympics' 'Last Supper' Tableau With Drag Queens 'Openly Celebrates Satan'; Candace Cameron Bure Calls It 'Disgusting'Keke Palmer Is ‘So Torn Up’ About a Playground Incident With Her Baby Leo & Moms...
