Whenever I see Gal Gadot’s name, I know something is wrong. And it seems like MUNA and I are on the same page, or at least we would have been if they had known who the guests were going to be the night they were musical guests on Thursday night's Jimmy Kimmel Live!
MUNA appeared on the show alongside Gadot, who was there to promote her latest project, an action movie called Runner. Following their taping, band member Naomi McPherson posted on Instagram, thanking the show’s staff while also advocating for a free Palestine. Given former IDF soldier Gadot’s well-known support for Israel, McPherson’s message felt particularly pointed.
Not only is Gadot maligned for her poor acting contributions to Hollywood, but she has also become a prominent public supporter of Israel. Knowing this, I have a feeling the band might have preferred a little more warning about who else would be sharing the stage that night.
Their full message read:
we're on kimmel tonight! thank you to all the staff of the show who were so great to us…they were legends who really went the extra mile.
this was taped a few days ago & we weren't told who any of the guests were gonna be
so gotta also just take this moment also to say a nice big huge free palestine
