The Singing Nun: “I leave my future in the hands of the Lord”

Italian nun Cristina Scuccia said she relies on “the will of the Lord” for her future in the vocal show “The Voice of Italy,” which finale this week.

The 25-year-old charming servant of the church this spring became a real sensation thanks to her amazing and lively performances on the vocal show "Voice", the Italian analogue of the American "The Voice". She has earned the love of millions of people around the world, but there are those who are very skeptical of her young sister Christina, claiming that her popularity is due only to the fact that she is a nun who managed to get on TV.

“I have a gift, and I give it to you,” Christina said at the qualifying casting of the show to surprised judges who did not expect to see a nun behind her. Since then, the girl has become a celebrity. The audience of “Voce” was captivated by her special manner of performing world hits, such as the main compositions from the films “Flash Dance” and “Dirty Dances”, as well as many other hits.

When it became known last week that Sister Christina was in the finale of the show, the nun shared that now her future is “in the hands of the Lord”, and if she wins the project, she will remain a simple and modest clergyman of the church. Skucca attributes her popularity to her “pursuit of happiness and love,” and also to the fact that “her message to the audience is beautiful and pure.” A video of Christina’s performance at the casting of the show where she performed “No One” was watched on YouTube more than 50 million times, and Alisha Kis herself described the nun’s singing as “full of energy.”

The glory of Sister Christina prompted the media to find out details from her life, especially the details of the time when the girl had not yet decided to devote her life to serving the Lord. Representatives from the Italian press interviewed Christina's ex-boyfriend, and also asked several questions from Claudia Koll, director of the music academy where the nun was studying. “Christina’s special life path added experience to her and also helped her to become an artist thanks to mysterious power. Her total surrender to God enriched her talent, ”Call told in an interview.

Sister Christina used to consider herself a rebel and tried to have special feelings for the church, but her talent was fully manifested during her participation in the musical musical, which was organized by one of the communities. Skucca became a nun in 2009, and later worked with children from poor families in Brazil.

However, not everyone believes that Christina is endowed with real talent. For example, singer Emma Marrone, who represented Italy at the Eurovision Song Contest in May of this year, said that the nun’s success on television was due to the fact that her appearance “simply shocked the world of show business” and her sister did not have a worthy talent. The judges of the competition also often did not appreciate the bright participant, but Christina was always saved by the voices of the audience, who literally fell in love with an energetic nun.

Meanwhile, sister Christina, whose fate will be decided in a few days, said that after the show she will try to return to “her usual singing in church with the children.” “I will continue to sing, if the Lord’s will,” the nun promised .
