Gospel legend Shirley Caesar goes viral thanks to Star Wars themed home

The gospel veteran is selling her home for $1.5 million and it drummed up a lot of attention online thanks to its Star Wars themed home movie theatre.

The cinema room is decked out with Star Wars and Star Trek memorabilia - the elaborate room even has life-size Stormtrooper and Darth Vader figures.

Caesars beautiful Star Wars house'' consists of four bedrooms and seven bathrooms which is set out across 8,759 square feet.

Posting on Instagram, Caesar shared an interview that she did with her local news station ABC11 North Carolina and said that she was shocked to see her home go viral.

This isnt the first time that Caesar has gone viral - a few years ago her track Hold My Mule was remixed into a Thanksgiving meme. The post was part of the U Name It Challenge and Caesar became an online icon.

"I'm shocked. I thought greens, beans, potatoes, tomatoes but this, the Star Wars house, 'Wow!' that's all I can say, Caesar said.

The Grammy-award winning artist has lived in her home for more than 20 years and plans to downsize. Caesar expressed her gratitude to God for all of her online success and expressed that God did it.

Caesar continued: If anyone ever told me that a girl from Durham, N.C. would be able to witness all these things that God has been doing and I give God glory for that, I take none of that.

God did it. God did it. So, I'm excited. Isn't it wonderful? And, I want my house to sell. Come get it.

Throughout her career, Caesar has picked up 11 Grammy Awards and has collaborated with artists such as Patti LaBelle, Gladys Knight, Kirk Franklin, Faith Evans, Hezekiah Walker and Anthony Hamilton.
