They are trying to normalise the Devil: Fast and Furious Star Tyrese Gibson Speaks Out in ‘The Big Interview’

In a candid and captivating interview, Fast and Furious star Tyrese Gibson recently shared his strong viewpoints on the faith dynamics within the entertainment industry. Known for his dynamic performances on screen and his soulful collaborations with gospel stars like Kirk Franklin Le’Andria Johnson and Jonathan Mcreynolds. Gibson took a detour from promoting his movie and album to express his concerns about the underlying influences within the industry.

During “The Big Interview”, Gibson didn’t shy away from sharing his thoughts. He said, “As much as I’m supposed to be promoting my movie and talking about my album, I just feel like we’re in competition right now. Because they are trying to normalise the devil… they are trying to populate. The devil is on the main stage at award shows and in every video.”

Gibson’s comments highlight his belief that there is an increasing trend towards normalising ‘devil’ symbolism in mainstream media, which he feels is becoming more prominent at award shows and music videos.He went on to explain how he believes individuals should be more open about their relationship with God, saying, “We need to stop treating our relationship with Jesus like the little buddy that you talk to before you go to bed at night, and not be more vocal about all the things that God means to us and all of the things that God has brought us through.”Gibson emphasises that people should be as vocal about their faith as they are about other aspects of their lives. He encourages individuals to share their experiences with God openly, acknowledging how faith has helped them through challenging times.

Tyrese Gibson’s outspoken stance during ‘The Big Interview’ has shed light on an often-overlooked aspect of the entertainment industry. His call for greater openness about faith serves as an important reminder of the potential influence of personal beliefs in shaping our perception of popular culture. As discussions continue around this topic, it’s clear that Gibson’s passionate advocacy for faith will continue to spark engaging dialogue.
