“Full House” star Jodie Sweetin defended the drag queen Last Supper parody at the Paris Olympics after her fellow costar Candace Cameron Bure slammed it as “disgusting.”

During the opening ceremony at the 2024 Summer Olympics, a scene modeled after The Last Supper opened with an obese woman wearing an aureole as Jesus surrounded by drag queens as the Apostles, a decapitated head representing Marie Antoinette of the French Revolution, and drag queens dancing around children.

“Tell me you don’t know about art or history,” Sweetin wrote in a July 29 Instagram Story per E! News, “without TELLING me you don’t know about art or history.”

Her post also included a video that started circulating online after Christians blasted the offensive scene, claiming that it wasn’t religious but inspired by the ancient Greek God Dionysus, who represents “feasting, festivity and ritual theater.”

Sweetin’s post comes one day after “Fuller House” star Candace Cameron Bure took to Instagram to blast the anti-Christian scene, as previously reported.

“I love the Olympic Games,” Bure said, mentioning that her husband Valeri Bure, a retired professional hockey player, and several other family members, were Olympic competitors.

“The Olympic Games have always brought me so much joy. It’s the best of the best athletes in the world competing for the title,” she added.

“So to watch such an incredible and wonderful event that’s gonna take place over the next two weeks and see the opening ceremonies completely blaspheme and mock the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper was disgusting,” Bure continued. “And it made me so sad. And someone said, ‘You shouldn’t be sad. You should be mad about it.’ And I’m like, ‘Trust me. It makes me mad.’ But I’m more sad, because I’m sad for souls.”

She also mentioned in her post that some followers claimed the opening ceremonies were not mocking Da Vinci’s famous “Last Supper” painting, but said she’s “not buying it” and she doesn’t “see how [Dionysus] relates to unifying the world through competitive sports and [is] acceptable for children to watch.”

The Paris Olympics admitted on Saturday the blasphemous scene was inspired by da Vinci’s famous mural, then tried to walk it back on Monday, the New York Post reported.

Following the backlash against the Olympics, Anne Descamps, a spokesperson for the Paris Olympics, said at a press conference, “If people have taken any offense we are really sorry.”

“Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. (The opening ceremony) tried to celebrate community tolerance,” Descamps told reporters, via Reuters. “We believe this ambition was achieved.”
