Conservative critics widely denounced the act, featuring Katerine lounging on a table surrounded by drag queens, as mocking the Last Supper. But director Thomas Jolly told BFM-TV on Sunday that his inspiration was not the iconic New Testament scene painting by Leonardo da Vinci, but “a pagan feast linked” to the gods of Olympus.

Katerine said he was “proud” of the performance. “It’s my culture,” he said. “We’re full of different people and everyone lives their own way and, above all, has the right to do so. I loved doing it.”


Do something positive.

The devoid of history and culture end up looking and sounding like fools.
