Throughout 2025, some major names paid tribute to the name above all names.
Here’s a look back on the celebs who spoke about God this year.
Nicki Minaj
An unexpected voice for the persecuted church this year was the Pink Friday rapper and singer, known for ‘Starships’ and ‘Super Freaky Girl’.
In November, Nicki Minaj commended President Donald Trump for taking a stance on the frequent attacks happening in Nigeria – before joining US envoy Mike Waltz at a United Nations event.
“I am so grateful to be entrusted with an opportunity of this magnitude,” she said.
“The Barbz & I will never stand down in the face of injustice. We’ve been given our influence by God. There must be a bigger purpose.”
The ‘Barbz’ is the collective nickname for Minaj’s fans – short for Barbie dolls.
Minaj described Nigeria as "a beautiful nation with deep faith traditions". She had that protecting Christians in the country is “not about taking sides” but about “standing up in the face of injustice” and “uniting humanity”
Conor McGregor
The UFC fighter made headlines in the autumn for announcing that he has been on a "spiritual journey."
“I am not here by chance, there is a higher power - God - that dictates my journey and all of our journeys,” McGregor told press at a pre-fight conference. “I live my life by God’s word... I’ve engaged on a spiritual journey, and I’m saved, I am healed.”
He later described seeing the trinity during psychedelic trauma therapy.
“God came to me in the Holy Trinity,” McGregor shared on social media. “He is MIGHTY!”
He also described seeing Jesus, Mary, and the archangels: “Jesus descended from the white marble steps of heaven and anointed me with a crown. My brain. My heart. My soul. Healed!”
McGregor has had a controversial year. In July, he was denied a civil appeal against a claim of sexual assault. Judges ordered him to pay £206,000 plus legal costs to Nikita Hand, who accused McGregor of raping her in a Dublin hotel room in 2018.
Ms Hand said the appeal process had “retraumatised” her.
"To every survivor out there, I know how hard it is, but please, don't be silenced,” she said.
McGregor now claims he has turned his life around after reflecting “inward”.
Dolly Parton and Sabrina Carpenter
Country legend Dolly Parton has been known to speak about her faith – but laid down the law this summer when collaborating with pop princess Sabrina Carpenter.
Carpenter had previously been in hot water with the Catholic church, over shooting a raunchy video at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Brooklyn.
“She can talk a little bad now and then,” Dolly said of the young star.
“I told her, I said, ‘Now, I don’t cuss. I don’t make fun of Jesus. I don’t talk bad about God.”
Speaking on the intersection of faith and fame, Dolly previously said: “I don’t want to be worshipped, because there’s a scripture in my Bible that talks about idol worship. And I see that happening all the time with movie stars and these celebrities... But if I can set an example, then that’s great.”
Michael Bublé sings at the Vatican
In December, the star known for his smooth festive hits opened up about his personal Catholic faith, before a performance at the Vatican.
"When I hear music, I hear the voice of God," he said.
He described his pre-show routine, which involves prayer: "Right before the curtain opens and I walk out, I say the same thing. I say 'Thank you God, for blessing me with the ability to connect with these beautiful souls.' And when I say it, I get goosebumps."
Free tickets for the Vatican's 'Concert with the Poor', which Bublé headlined, were offered to 3,000 vulnerable people, who are supported by volunteer organisations around Rome.
Bublé said it was "an honour to serve" and to celebrate the birth of Christ. He shared that he teaches his children about how Jesus washed the disciples' feet, as an example of serving others.
