        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>British funnyman Ricky Gervais again lashed out at “multi-millionaire celebs” in a new interview &#8212; for lecturing “normal nobodies” during the coronavirus outbreak.</p><p>The 58-year-old targeted “Wonder Woman” actress Gal Gadot and a crew of other A-listers, such as Will Ferrell and Mark Ruffalo, for <strong>their viral cover</strong> of John Lennon’s “Imagine” released last month in response to the crisis.</p><p>“That Imagine video, it&#8217;s not that bad, they&#8217;re probably very nice people,” Gervais said on BBC Radio 5, <strong>according to The Sun</strong>. “It was an awful rendition, but they might have been doing it for good reasons, to help these normal nobodies.”</p><p>“But they&#8217;re going, ‘My film&#8217;s coming up and I&#8217;m not on telly — I need to be in the public eye,’ not all of them but some of them,” he added. “You can see in their eye — ‘I could cry at the beauty of my personality, I&#8217;m just so beautiful for doing this’ and everyone sees that — we get it.”</p><p><strong>As he did last week</strong>, Gervais also took aim at stars like Sam Smith, who have lamented being holed up in their mansions during coronavirus lockdowns.</p><p>“For a start, you won&#8217;t hear me complain — not when there&#8217;s [United Kingdom National Health Service] nurses doing 14 hours shifts — and frontline workers carrying on and risking their health,” he said. “I&#8217;m fine. Don&#8217;t worry about me &#8230; I go for walks on Hampstead Heath, and we&#8217;ve got a garden.”</p><p>He said that privileged superstars don’t have a right to preach to the general public during the crisis.</p><p>“There are people in high rise blocks with three kids — I can&#8217;t complain,” the comedian said. “This is why millionaires in their mansions with their gym and going for a swim can&#8217;t lecture people.”</p><p>“People are sick of being lectured, multi-millionaires telling them to clean out their coffee jar and put it in the right bin — they know those celebs are taking private jets to their private islands,” he added. “They are sick of it.”</p><p>Gervais <strong>has a well-documented history</strong> of attacking self-centered stars.</p>]]></content:encoded>
