French DJ Barbara Butch, who took part in a controversial drag queen scene at the Paris Olympics, has filed a number of complaints with police after receiving a series of threatening messages online.

“Since the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, artist, DJ and activist Barbara Butch has been the target of an extremely violent campaign of cyber harassment and defamation,” Butch’s attorney Audrey Msellati said in a statement.
