In a recent interview with Rolling Stone,Post Malone alleged Justin Bieberdonated $10 million to the Hillsong Church. Post put Biebs on blast, saying that the pop mega-star had become "super religious" and "real culty."
Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz has now fired back, rebuking Post’s claims as completely bogus. Lentz toldRolling Stone "I put no stake in comments made by people who know absolutely nothing about the subject they are speaking on." Lentz goes on to say, "I do not know Post Malone, and I have no idea why he would say reckless things about our church, which he has never visited."
Somebody cooking? Because I smell beef.
And on the $10 million in question, Lentz says, "Justin has not given our church $10 million, and we do not have gold ceilings. We do not even own a church building. So that gives you a little insight about how serious you can take his observations about anything to do with us." However, the pastor insists that despite what the rapper has to say about Hillsong or Bieber, he’s still a fan of Post. "He’s a very talented artist," says Lentz, "and I wish him nothing but the best."
You sure, Carl?
In any event, Bieber has yet to comment on either Post’s claims or his pastor’s response.
