Gwen Stefani found herself at the center of yet another social media firestorm this week.
Her “crime?” Sharing a video of an interview about Christianity.
That’s it.
As reported by The New York Post, the pop star posted a clip of actor Jonathan Roumie, best known for his portrayal of Jesus in The Chosen, discussing faith with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

“Wow Jonathan Roumie, you are a powerful inspirational human, what an enlightening intelligent beautiful interview thank you for being you gx,” Stefani wrote.
The reaction? Convenient outrage, of course.
Social media critics immediately lashed out, accusing Stefani of being a “right wing grifter” and associating with a “Russian propagandist.” Another user declared, “You honestly need a reality check God this is heartbreaking.” Others claimed this was just another sign that Stefani was “in her Trump area” or selling out to conservatives.
Since when did faith become so controversial? Stefani has long been open about her Catholic beliefs, yet every time she expresses them, the backlash is swift and vicious. This isn’t the first time—just last year, she faced criticism for promoting a Christian prayer app. Apparently, in the eyes of some fans, believing in God is only acceptable if you keep it to yourself.
But here’s the irony—while some attacked Stefani for her faith, others jumped to her defense.
“Why can’t everyone just be themselves without all the presumption and judgment??” one supporter asked. Another fan pointed out the absurdity of the outrage: “Gwen, thank you for posting this and allowing the world to see how unhinged people have gotten over politics.”
And that’s really the heart of the issue. We live in a culture that preaches tolerance but rarely practices it.
