Rainbow Eiffel Tower: Did French Monument Go Multi-Colored On Bastille Day For Gay Marriage?
Posted in: Today's ChiliTo the chagrin of “Manif Pour Tous” protesters, even the Eiffel Tower has appeared to show its support for gay marriage in France.
At about 11:30 p.m. Sunday, during the Bastille Day fireworks, the iconic monument radiated the colors of the rainbow in a dazzling light show that was staged to illustrate France’s national motto, “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,” Le Huffington Post reports. But was this rainbow Eiffel Tower a subtle nod to gay pride or to something else entirely?
In a video of the July 14 light show, the Eiffel Tower flashes a rainbow of colors as fireworks in the background light up the night sky. The colors appear to be arranged in the pattern of a rainbow with pink, blue, green, yellow, orange and red lights adorning the stem of the tower.
