Brigitte Bardot, French screen legend, dies aged 91

Bardot became a celebrated sex symbol in 1950s and 60s, but later embraced animal rights activism and an increasingly controversial political stance Brigitte Bardot, the French actor and singer who became an international sex symbol before turning her back on the film industry to become an animal rights activist, has died aged 91. Bardot shot to international fame with the 1956 film And God Created Woman, written and directed by her then-husband Roger Vadim, and for the next two decades embodied the idea of the archetypal “sex kitten”. In the early 70s, however, she announced her retirement from acting and became increasingly active politically. Her outspoken support of animal rights evolved into incendiary comments about ethnic minorities and open support for France’s far-right Front National, resulting in a string of convictions for racial hatred.

Few actresses were so controversial as Brigitte Bardot. Her views on aging and animal rights were admirable, her views on Islam and race dispeakable.

She was one of first major celebrities to openly support the European far right, which deserves more critical review in obituaries.

Brigitte Bardot has been fined for racism multiple times, she called muslim immigrants "filthy", she openly supported the far right like few other celebrities in Europe. She was not "controversial," she was a hateful homophobe, racist and bigot.

La militante d'extrême-droite Brigitte Bardot est morte. Elle était une multi-condamnée pour incitation à la haine raciale et en raison de propos tenus concernant notamment l'immigration, l'islam en France, l'abattage rituel des animaux, le métissage et l'homosexualité.

Certains homosexuels ont toujours eu un goût et un talent plus subtil, une classe, une envergure, une intelligence, un esprit, un esthétisme qui les différenciaient du commun des mortels jusqu’à ce que tout ça dégénère en lopettes de bas étage, travelos de tous poils, phénomènes de foire, tristement stimulés dans cette décadence par la levée d'interdits qui endiguaient les débordements extrêmes
