2 More Celebrities Embrace Traditional Values
Two big-name celebrities did something radical last weekend: They embraced traditional values.
Could these be signs that the tides are turning in the culture war? Is the public finally canceling cancel culture?
Are Celebrities Becoming “Trad”???Two A-list singers did something shocking this past weekend—they promoted their traditional values in an industry hostile to their beliefs. Do you think pop culture is finally ready to ditch toxic progressivism? @EliseMcCue pic.twitter.com/G0eOMwNNpy— The Daily Signal (@DailySignal) December 10, 2024
Pop singer Gwen Stefani announced on social media that she will partner with Hallow, the world’s No. 1 prayer app for Catholics, to lead an Advent prayer meditation.
Other celebrities to narrate prayers on Hallow include actors Jonathan Roumie, Mark Wahlberg, and Patricia Heaton.
It turns out that Stefani, the No Doubt frontwoman, is a practicing Catholic who never missed a Sunday Mass while on tour with the band.
It’s so crazy that Gwen Stefani, who never missed Sunday Mass while on her “No Doubt” tours, is a Christian.At least people are being honest and saying they despised Christianity all along. The tolerant were never “tolerant.” https://t.co/qsOxD6uZXu— Brittany Hugoboom (@BritHugoboom) December 6, 2024
Also over the weekend, singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey, while presenting an award at Variety magazine’s eighth annual Hitmakers Event, had this to say about her values:
It’s super nerve-racking to hold on to an innocent perception of how things could go when you’re in an industry where maybe your values and your morals don’t quite match up with what’s going on. Especially when people think you probably don’t have any morals or values.
Del Rey, who has sported a signature Americana aesthetic since 2012, called new husband Jeremy Dufrene an “honest partner.”

Dufrene isn’t another tortured artist, nor is he an actor or influencer. Dufrene is a captain for a tour boat company in Louisiana. Based on his interactions online, he is also pro-Trump, anti-vaccine, and pro-traditional values.
Although some social media users criticized both Stefani and Del Rey, even more defended the two singers.
This is utterly appalling – a Catholic woman wants to use her God-given talents to help herself and others prepare for Christmas – and this … person … has a problem I bet this harridan has a “hate has no home here” sign When did America become so filled with anti-Christian…— Diana Villiers (@DianaVilliers1) December 6, 2024
The youth vote swung toward the Republican candidate, Donald Trump, in the presidential election by an unprecedented amount. Could this be related to the acceptance of online messages touting traditional values from Stefani and Del Rey over the weekend?
The two pop artists’ statements aren’t remotely close to the full-fledged conservative “coming out” (and subsequent cancellation) of other celebrities such as actor Gina Carano or even entrepreneur Elon Musk.
Nevertheless, a tangible shift in the culture allowed the two singers to make these statements without meeting the same fate as those other celebrities.
