London, Jan 6: Wonder Woman actress Gal Gadot has admitted the viral video, Imagine, that she along with some Hollywood stars made at the beginning of Covid pandemic was “in poor taste”.
In the video the 36-year-old Israeli actress along with fellow actors sang a line from John Lennon’s 1971 single ‘Imagine’.
The fellow actors included Jamie Dornan, Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell.
Had “all pure intentions, but sometimes you don’t hit the bullseye”, BBC quoted Gadot as saying to US fashion magazine InStyle.

The video was called “tone deaf” and cringe worthy” by fans.
Later, Gadot admitted that the video was “premature”.
“I was calling Kristen [Wiig] and I was like, ‘Listen, I want to do this thing,” she explained. “The pandemic was in Europe and Israel before it came [to the US] in the same way.
“I was seeing where everything was headed. But [the video] was premature. It wasn’t the right timing, and it wasn’t the right thing. It was in poor taste.”
According to BBC report, the video was viewed more than 10 million times on Instagram since it was published in March 2020.
