Who will save our poor, poor slebs from the evils of spiritual enlightenment? In the News has noticed the re-emergence of a trend so terrifying (and so last year) that we feel compelled to warn other slebs about its red-bracelet-wearing, blessed-water-drinking ways.
Yes, Kabbalah is back. And this time, it wants a Rolling Stone.
"Its promises of spiritual enlightenment and help with building a better life have already won over the first lady of pop," the Daily Mail reports today. "Now the esoteric cult of Kabbalah can add the name of Sir Mick Jagger to that of Madonna on its list of followers."
This claim is based on Mick being papped wearing red string around his wrist, which is indeed symbolic of belonging to the Kabbalah religion. It's not exclusive to the Kabbalah religion, however - but let's not let that put us off a good story.
The Mail goes on to report the many spiritual enlightenment-type claims Kabbalah makes, noting that: "[A] centre, in Jerusalem, promises to show followers how to 'remove every form of chaos, pain and suffering' and 'ultimately to erase death itself'."
Next they'll be promising the son of God will come back to life and walk the earth!
Need more proof that Jagger hearts Kabbalah? The story goes on to note that Jagger is beginning to possess the piety and modesty of living associated with spiritual enlightenment. For example:
"Last month, [Jagger and his partner L'Wren Scott] stayed at the 374-room Indian palace home of the Maharaja of Jodhpur and collected mystical trinkets for their £10m Chelsea home."
