“Amazing Jonathan Lemie, you're a powerful inspirational person. What an enlightening and intelligent interview?
Stefani's comments corresponded to a conversation between Carlson and Roomy, a devout Catholic, known for playing the role of Jesus in the crowd-funded Christian television series “Choosed,” about the life and ministry of Jesus in Nazareth (Yeshua).
The two spoke about Lumi's role as Jesus in the television series The Chosen, and the Catholic prayer app Hallow, and lending.
For Catholics, Lent is “a 40-day season of prayer, fasting and alms that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at sunset on Holy Thursday. According to the American Conference of the Catholic Bishops (USCCB), it is a preparation period to celebrate the Lord's resurrection at Easter.
Hallow is a Catholic meditation and prayer app that provides audio-guided biblical stories, prayer, meditation, sleep and music.
The comments section of Stefani's X post was illuminated by many angry fans and expressed her “disappointment” after becoming a “right-wing glyfter.”
“You need to be honest and reality checks, which is heartbreaking,” wrote one X user.
“As a longtime fan, Gwen makes it stronger and more difficult for you to continue supporting you.
“When she began promoting the Bible app, I knew she was a right-wing glyfter,” the third user replied.
Stefani has previously received criticism after he similarly promoted Hallow, the same app that Roomy highlighted in Carlson's argument.
Nevertheless, there were also Stefani fans who emphasized their support for her openly expressing her faith.
“Thank you, Gwen for posting this and for seeing how people who had no one in the world have overcome politics. Let's take a look at the responses from the 'fans' here,” one user replied.
“He is a Catholic, and Gwen is a Catholic, and that's the beginning of lending. Why can't anyone become themselves without all the estimation and judgment?” asked another user.
Stefani has previously spoken about her Catholic upbringing and the challenges it has brought to her career.
Stefani noted that reflecting the difficulty of reconciliating her faith with her role as lead singer, and that the values instilled in her through Catholicism stood in contrast to the “rebellious and edgy” persona that many of her female fans expected from rocks and third wave Ska performers.
“You have to become a feminist, you have to hate guys, and you have to cuss, you have to become tough,” Stefani said.
“And I wasn't that kind of thing. I grew up like a good Catholic girl. The Total Brady Bunch family. It scared me all the time. It's the pressure to be very cool or have to be like “f**k you to the World.” But I got over it and realized that yes, I love dressing up, and I love to wear makeup and become myself. I like to be a girl. I like to open the door. I like all of that traditional things and I don't deny it. ”
