The Paris Olympics officially kicked off with a stunning Opening Ceremony down the River Seine on Friday and it truly compressed as much French culture as one parade can fit.
Including an ode to, shall we say, one of the nation’s more promiscuous past times.
No, your eyes did not deceive you. That was really a pre-recorded scene depicting the start of a very sensual … ménage à trois?
Should we have expected this? Well, after Lady Gaga’s performance, a re-enactment of Marie Antionette’s beheading and a rendition of Les Mis, it was probably pretty safe to assume the ceremony would only get weirder.
That didn’t make it any less shocking to witness on network television in the middle of the afternoon. If you want to watch, click here.
The threesome in the Reading Room at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France was quite the surprise #OpeningCeremony #Paris2024 #LibrariesChangeLives @laBnF pic.twitter.com/jIbWLeKrm2
