Leo greets crowd as homosexual anthem ‘Dancing Queen’ plays in St. Peter’s Square
Like President Trump, who famously played the Village People’s 'Y.M.C.A.' at most every campaign event, Pope Leo now has his own equally iconic gay anthem theme song.
(LifeSiteNews) —The crowd attending Leo XIV’s general audience on Wednesday was serenaded by the ABBA tune “Dancing Queen” as the Pontiff made his way through St. Peter’s Square.
“Dancing Queen” is considered the quintessential LGBT anthem.
Like President Trump, who famously played the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at most every campaign event, Pope Leo now has his own equally iconic gay anthem theme song.
“The Most Iconic Queer Anthem Of All Time”: “Dancing Queen, Pope Leo & PRIDE At The Vatican,” X commentator Nancy Ross declared.
“Is Dancing Queen an appropriate song for a General Papal Audience? Thoughts? (Lord, help me to hold my tongue … ),” EWTN’s Raymond Arroyo asked on X.
“What is happening here? Is that music an AI joke?” similarly perplexed Fox News host Laura Ingraham wondered.
Even some progressive Catholics were troubled by the song being played during Wednesday’s general audience.
“A big scandal is brewing at the Vatican today. Pope Leo XIV was serenaded by both Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline and ABBA’s Dancing Queen on the same day,” Christopher Hale noted.
“Things are getting a little too risqué under the American pope,” Hale added.
“Donald Trump and his followers may have for a time claimed the Village People’s ‘Y.M.C.A.’ and ‘Macho Man’ for themselves, but there’s no way they’ll take this one from us,” homosexual music critic and historian Barry Walters said of “Dancing Queen” in 2021.
While Trump and MAGA haven’t “taken” “Dancing Queen,” in the memories of Catholics around the world it now belongs to the first American Pope and the Vatican.
