Marine Le Pen Attends Funeral of Movie Icon and Far-Right Figure Brigitte Bardot

Bardot gained fame as a star in French New Wave films by notable directors like Jean-Luc Godard during the 1950s and 1960s. Politically, she supported Le Pen during her 2012 presidential campaign. Bardot’s husband, Bernard d’Ormale, was also an advisor to Le Pen’s father, Jean-Marie. Known for her advocacy for animal rights, Bardot also faced backlash for making racist, Islamophobic, and homophobic comments, leading to five separate criminal convictions for “incitement to hatred.” Following her death, conservative and far-right figures praised her on social media, with Éric Ciotti advocating for a national tribute despite her family’s opposition. French President Emmanuel Macron, in his eulogy, chose not to address Bardot’s controversial remarks, instead honoring her as a “legend of the century.”
