Putting a UFC belt or the Taylor Swift shirt on to Jesus Christ is sacrilegious

Literally the people who live there disagree with you. To them it shows reverence, and a pastor is the one who had the idea.

Father Omar, the rector of the Christ the Redeemer Sanctuary who oversees the projection at the statue, turned the Taylor Swift request into an act of charity.

Yeah, I'm gonna go with the literal pastor and overseer of the statue to determine if it's sacrilegious. I'd suggest you look internally to figure out why you think it is when church leaders don't even think it is.
