Spanish archbishop apologizes for steamy music video filmed in Gothic cathedral
CNN
The Archbishop of Toledo in Spain has apologized after two artists filmed a racy music video in the city's cathedral, saying he was completely unaware of the project and its content.
Spanish artist C. Tangana and Argentinian singer Nathy Peluso filmed parts of the video for their track "Ateo," meaning "Atheist," at the 13th-century Toledo Cathedral, one of Spain's most famous religious buildings.
The video, released Thursday, shows C. Tangana and Peluso grinding against each other and dancing the bachata style in the cathedral and includes close-ups of the artwork featured on the cathedral's walls.
