A French DJ and LGBTQ activist is taking legal action over online abuse regarding her role in the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony’s “Last Supper” display.
Barbara Butch’s attorney, Audrey Msellati, wrote in a statement posted to Butch’s Instagram that the DJ and activist who played “Christ” in the display had “been the target of an extremely violent campaign of cyber-harassment and defamation.”
In response, Msellati said Butch was “filing several complaints against these acts,” regardless of whether they had been “committed by French nationalists or foreigners.”
“Since the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, artist, DJ, and activist Barbara Butch has been the target of an extremely violent campaign of cyber-harassment and defamation,” Msellati wrote in the letter.
