Gwen Stefani has caused a debate among fans after promoting the Catholic prayer and meditation app, Hallow. The 55-year-old No Doubt singer partnered with the app to encourage prayer during the holiday season.
In a promotional video, she shared her love for Christmas, stating, "Christmas season has always been my favorite time of the year. It's the season that we get to celebrate the birth of our Lord."
Stefani also encouraged people to celebrate Christmas through prayer with Hallow.
"Join me and millions of other Christians around the world as we celebrate together the truth that God so loved the world that he gave us his only son."
This partnership has led netizens comment on her Instagram post of the video, criticizing her decision to collaborate with the app.
Comments ranged from supportive expressions of admiration to disappointment and ridicule, with one user calling it "seriously cringe."
On the other hand, Stefani's defenders highlighted her long-standing openness about her faith and encouraged others to respect her personal beliefs.
