Jillian Michaels condemns Olympics Last Supper drag show for 'mocking' Christianity

Jillian Michaels, renowned health and wellness expert, criticized the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony for featuring a drag show rendition of the Last Supper, which she felt mocked Christianity.

The “Biggest Loser” alum, 50, told Page Six in a sit-down interview Wednesday that the LGBTQIA+ community needs “allies” and should not “alienate” other groups.

“It’s taking a lot of time and a lot of work to win people over, because what’s different is scary,” she said. “So how do you best do that? By showing tolerance and treating people the way you want to be treated. So when you kind of go like this to 2 billion people around the planet, you can expect the same in return.”

Michaels, who recently launched her “Keeping It Real” podcast on video with Bill Maher’s Club Random Studios, contended that the attitude toward Christianity was the "wrong way forward" for achieving peaceful progress, especially "when the world is so divided."

“I would have preferred something that had nothing to do with religion, just inclusion relevant to the Games. That’s where it’s appropriate, and it has nothing to do with drag queens,” she explained, noting that she had no issue with them, just took exception to the religious aspect. “Sure, go for it.”

The Emmy-nominated TV personality dismissed the counter-argument that the depiction was not actually the Last Supper, but rather inspired by a 17th-century Dutch painting of the festival of Dionysus.

“Bulls–t,” she said.

Michaels argued that the "true liberal position" is to "live and let live," but felt that the controversial segment conveyed the exact opposite message.
