In March, when the Coronavirus lockdown just began, the Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot shared an IGTV on her Insta page where she said that we are all in this together. She, along with her friends like Mark Ruffalo, Amy Adams, Natalie Portman, Jimmy Fallon are seen crooning John Lenon's Peace anthem, to send across some positivity. Apparently, the video was seen in a negative way and it received a lot of flak from the netizens. However, after a lot of controversies and seven months later, Gal Gadot has opened up on the video and said that she had nothing but good intentions and that it all came from a good place.
Speaking to Vanity Fair, Gal Gadot said, "Sometimes, you know, you try and do a good deed and it’s just not the right good deed. I had nothing but good intentions and it came from the best place, and I just wanted to send light and love to the world." She revealed that the idea of making the video started with a few friends and actress Kristen Wiig pulled in a bunch of celebs for the video. "But yeah, I started it, and I can only say that I meant to do something good and pure, and it didn’t transcend," Gal Gadot remarked.
For the unversed, after the video was shared, netizens said that if Gal Gadot was so concerned she could have just donated some money to those who have lost their livelihood due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
