The Paris 2024 Olympic opening ceremony has received a lot of criticism from the media around the world after a few days. Many audiences around the world have bluntly called this the most disastrous opening ceremony in the history of the modern Olympics. Not stopping there, recently, the clip of this controversial opening ceremony was also recorded as “disappearing”.

On the official YouTue channel of the Olympics with 12.6 million followers, netizens discovered that the clip reviewing the highlights of the Paris 2024 Olympic opening ceremony has been completely hidden by the Organizing Committee. When clicking on the link, the audience will receive a message: “This video is not available”. Meanwhile, the full version of the opening event of the London 2012, Rio 2016, Beijing 2022, and even Nagano 1998 Olympics are still available.

Not stopping there, some units also began to withdraw sponsorship from the Paris Olympics 2024 after controversial religious clashes in the framework of the opening ceremony. Network operator C’Spire announced: “We are shocked by the desecration of the Last Supper in the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics. We are gradually withdrawing advertising from this Olympics…”.

Many brands, units, and individuals around the world have continuously criticized the Paris Olympics 2024 Organizing Committee for turning the opening ceremony, which is awaited by billions of people, into such a “disaster”.

It is not difficult to understand why the Olympics had to delete the above highlight clip, when the wave of anger and criticism of the opening ceremony spread globally, severely affecting the Organizing Committee.

C’Spire Network withdrew from the event and withdrew sponsorship.

The performance that received the most criticism was the performance of the drag queens. Specifically, in the catwalk stage built on the bridge, there was a scene of many drag queens in colorful costumes lining up on a table, attending a party.

This image caused controversy around the world when many viewers pointed out that the arrangement of the formation and the posture of the drag queens was a frame modeled after the work The Last Supper by the great painter Leonardo Da Vinci. This is one of the masterpieces of human art created in the late 15th century, with the theme of the last supper of Jesus Christ and his disciples before he was betrayed by Judas. This is one of the sacred images, revered by Christians for centuries.

The Paris Olympics offended the religious beliefs of billions of people around the world. Catholic leaders in France and many countries around the world also expressed their outrage and anger at the above performance.
