he woman at the centre of a controversial performance during the opening ceremony for the Paris 2024 Olympics has been revealed to be a DJ, producer, and self-described 'love activist' called Barbara Butch.
Some Christians were vocal about their discomfort over the stunt: a parody of the Last Supper - the famous biblical scene of Jesus Christ and his twelve apostles sharing a last meal before the crucifixion.
The artistic interpretation, which included a group of drag queens and a transgender model, as well as French actor and singer Phillippe Katerine, prompted some to accuse organisers of creating a 'woke' parody of the iconic painting by Leonardo da Vinci.
Models, dancers, fashion icons and drag queens from the host nation took part in the scene, gathering on a bridge over the capital's river around a table, which also doubled as a catwalk.
At the centre was Barbara, who donned a halo-style crown and fitted blue and silver ensemble as she stood in front of her DJ equipment surrounded by several drag queens and dozens of dancers and performers
A fashion show which showcased clothing designed by some of France's most promising young designers took centre stage, as those seated on either side performed slick choreography.
And one of the most impressive pieces was the crown worn by Barbara, which was actually a custom-made headset which incorporated a pair of headphones.
The piece was created by multidisciplinary artist Flavio Juan Nunez and designer Laurent Tijou.
It was crafted from natural silver chromed leather, wood, and Swarovski crystals, according to an Instagram post shared by Barbara.
In the post, she added that the tableau had been created to 'celebrate Love, inclusivity, diversity through music & dance to unite all of Us [sic]'.

That pic reminds me of a cartoon I saw many years ago. An obese woman is tacking up a “Lost Puppy” sign on a telephone pole, including a picture of the puppy. But the puppy is stuck between the woman’s butt cheeks.
They use kilograms so it doesn’t seem as horrendous.
She looks like “Food Activist.”
I’ll bet that was The Far Side!
I would donate to the cost of the missile.
If the Paris Olympics organizers had REAL balls the opening ceremony would have depicted Charles Martel crushing the Umayyads at the Battle of Tours.
Did they forget to mention the guy with his balls exposed for the world to see, at the Last Supper no less? I can’t imagine they’d deliberately forgot to mention that.
When I first saw the listing for HBOs “Big Love,” this is what I pictured. Turned out to be Mormons.
A systematic attempt to delegitimize all previously accepted standards and assumptions in the history of human civilization.
