Paris 2024 - Day 0 - The Opening Ceremony (Fri 26 July)

Just catching up on Celine and what a GLORIOUS moment, just a shame about the proceeding 4 hours! Still cackling at whatever Gaga was doing.

The highlights package is pretty decent. There were quite a lot of treats.

The endless boats however entirely tedious.

Celine Dion on the Eiffel Tower is just peak everything.

Yeah I think if we had the show and then the parade (even on boats still) without it cutting between the two and not really knowing where the focus should be they’d have had a really solid ceremony as the highlights package shows.

Celine Fucking Dion on the Eiffel Fucking Tower though.
 
Can we just have a moment for SUPERNATURE



What a glorious treat for the Eiffel Tower light show/ Serena Williams completely losing her composure.

What did @Mary Whitehouse think of the opening ceremony?

I am utterly appalled by the disgraceful display at the Olympics opening ceremony in Paris last night. What should be a celebration of athletic excellence, family values and unity was instead turned into a platform for the promotion of immoral and indecent behavior, epitomised by the inclusion of drug fuelled disco music, drag queens, hot threesomes and barbaric political violence.

Such inappropriate displays with blatant disregard for traditional values, should have no place in an event watched by millions, including impressionable young viewers, such as man baby Tom Daley. It gives them the impression that they have the inalienable right to blue themselves, fuck outside of marriage, and behead their enemies.

Kirstie Allsop increasingly falling onto the right side of history really is such a surprise.

 
Today's episode of The Rest Is Entertainment (last ten minutes or so) was interesting on the opening ceremony, especially how the commentators were completely in the dark as to how it was going to unfold and who was going to show up. Also, they had to do the broadcast in the pouring rain after being told to put their brollies down as they were in the way :D

I was amazed. The organisers could still have kept it a secret and arranged to feed information to the commentators.

Or at least put bloody captions on the screen with people’s names on.
