Gaga replies to Catholic website about faith being a trend

Pop sensation and award-winning actress Lady Gaga recently responded to a post on a Catholic site entitled, "From Lady Gaga to Steph Curry: 5 Things to Remember When Celebrities Share Their Faith."

The article discussed celebrities using faith as a trend and explained that stars are nowadays often seen "sharing Bible verses, quoting priests, and singing Christian music while at the same time still leading a typical Hollywood lifestyle void of Christian values such as modesty and purity." 

Upon seeing the post, Gaga decided to publicly respond and shared the following message with both her followers on Instagram and with Catholic Link English: "Dear, Becky Roach. Mary Magdalene washed the feet of Christ and was protected and loved by him. A prostitute."

"Someone society shames as if she and her body are a man's trash can. He loved her and did not judge. He let her cry over him and dry his feet with the hair of a harlot. We are not just "celebrities" we are humans and sinners, children, and our lives are not void of values because we struggle. We are as equally forgiven as our neighbour. God is never a trend no matter who the believer."

Catholic Link English then responded to Gaga (see screenshot below), writing in part: "What you wrote is absolutely beautiful. It is one of the most touching comments we have ever read. Know that we will be praying that experience of God's mercy continue to grow and bear fruits for you, for the people that you love, and all of your followers."
