Fans in splits after 'The Boys' Season 3 Episode 6 takes a dig at Gal Gadot's 'Imagine'

Celebrities sang 'Imagine' amid the coronavirus crisis, and the show pretty much made it a parody much to the fans' delight

Gal Gadot's response is perhaps what social media awaits after 'The Boys' Season 3 Episode 6 'Herogasm' parodied John Lennon's 'Imagine' with a slew of celebrities. Kumail Nanjiani was one of the faces featured much to the delight of the show's fans. The 'Wonder Woman' star's Imagine video was originally supposed to be done as a mark of solidarity, but the pandemic Instagram video came under harsh criticism. Despite racking up more than 10.5 million views, the clip was labeled 'cringe.' However, the Amazon Prime show now decided to bring back some memories that people would love to forget.

The episode opened up with The Deep (Chace Crawford) starting off with the classic cover and a string of celebs joining in. This set the tone for 'Herogasm', an episode that gave the fans a superhero orgy, a showdown between Soldier Boy (Jensen Ackles) and Homelander (Antony Starr), and some character deaths and departures among other things.
