French entertainer who performed as ‘the blue guy’ a mostly nude Greek god during opening ceremony responds to controversy


PARIS — The flamboyant French entertainer who performed during the Olympic opening ceremony as a mostly nude, blue-tinged Greek god said he is feeling “super good” despite the controversy.

Philippe Katerine, a boundary-pushing actor and singer, told Le Parisien newspaper that he spent two hours in makeup being coated with “gallons” of waterproof paint in a shade of sky blue and sprinkled with yellow glitter, which he said he was still finding traces of a day after the ceremony.
