But no matter how long COVID-19 drags on, Gal Gadot and a bevy of celebrities singing John Lennon\u2019s \u201cImagine\u201d remains one of the worst of all time.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cJustice League\u201d alum has addressed the controversy in the past, expressing regret over organizing the sing-along in the first place. But now she\u2019s speaking about the incident again, saying the whole thing was \u201cin poor taste\u201d in retrospect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was calling Kristen [Wiig] and I was like, \u2018Listen, I want to do this thing,\u2019\u201d Gadot told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instyle.com\/celebrity\/gal-gadot\/february-2022-cover\">InStyle<\/a> in their February 2022 issue. \u201cThe pandemic was in Europe and Israel before it came here [to the US] in the same way. I was seeing where everything was headed. But [the video] was premature.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli star continued, \u201cIt wasn\u2019t the right timing, and it wasn\u2019t the right thing. It was in poor taste. All pure intentions, but sometimes you don\u2019t hit the bull\u2019s-eye, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the InStyle interview, Gadot discussed the much maligned sing-along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/hollywood\/2020\/10\/gal-gadot-is-in-a-league-of-her-own\">Vanity Fair<\/a>. During that conversation, she defended herself and claimed her intentions were always honorable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes, you know, you try and do a good deed and it\u2019s just not the right good deed,\u201d the \u201cWonder Woman\u201d actress explained. \u201cI had nothing but good intentions and it came from the best place, and I just wanted to send light and love to the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The controversy in question included a group of A-list celebrities plus lesser know stars including Natalie Portman, Jimmy Fallon, Zo\u00eb Kravitz, Will Ferrell, Mark Ruffalo, Sia, and Maya Rudolph singing along to \u201cImagine\u201d together.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Gadot shared that she was feeling \u201ca bit philosophical\u201d while in \u201cself-quarantine\u201d during the earliest stages of the pandemic in 2020 when most people were still sheltering at home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, this virus has affected the entire world \u2014 everyone \u2014 it doesn\u2019t matter who you are, where you\u2019re from, we\u2019re all in this together,\u201d she said in the video. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI ran into this video of this Italian guy playing the trumpet on his balcony to all the other people who were locked in their homes. And he was playing \u2018Imagine\u2019 and there was something so powerful and pure about this video,\u201d she continued, before launching into a few bars herself.<\/p>\n<p>Then the clip cut to the other celebrities singing lines from their own homes. Some sang off-key while others looked unkempt in the clips. Overall, the cringiest aspect of the mash-up was how clueless Gadot and her millionaire friends were to be singing about harmony while holed up in their massive homes with little fear of losing their jobs or the ability to put food on the table.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Larry the Cable Guy, whose real name is Daniel Lawrence Whitney, summed up most people\u2019s issue with the clip.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere\u2019s a message from people with a lot of possessions that can take a year off of work and not flinch telling everyone outa work to imagine a world with no possessions while people are living in the street a half mile away from \u2018em.\u201d Whitney <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/larry-the-cable-guy-rips-clueless-celebs-who-filmed-themselves-singing-imagine-in-their-million-dollar-mansions\">wrote on Twitter<\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019re clueless.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
