I love watching the olympics since I was little, since 2008 in Beijing. I personally think Paris opening ceremony was one of the best I’ve seen.

It was really creative, and they thought outside the box. The artists were amazing, the boat introduction was cool as hell, overall the entire thing was great.

I know about the controversy of the drag queens imitating the last supper or something, but I thought it was really pretty, and my mum, who is catholic, thought it was great.

I don’t know why else people think it was bad. What are your thoughts about it?

TIA and please be nice (and to each other too!)

    They didn’t represent their French history and French culture well enough as the UK, Russia, and China did. I find that disappointing.

    They didn’t even let Joan of Arc’s great great great great great granddaughter be part of the opening ceremony. There was news that she was upset that the host didn’t reach out to her to be part of the opening ceremony.
