I know I may be late with this, but maybe this can serve as a reminder.
"Throughout Church history, the color red has been deliberately chosen to represent the blood of Catholic martyrs spilt through the centuries following in the footsteps of Christ. The red papal shoes are also linked to Christ’s own bloodied feet as he was prodded, whipped, and pushed along the Via Dolorosa on his way to his crucifixion, culminating in the piercing of his hands and feet on the cross."

you're referring to the claim that Macaulay Culkin allegedly said a big producer had dead children shoes. The report of the interview seemed to have been scrubbed from the internet. But I remember reading about it when it was fresh.
