Hop festival! Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, Josh Gad and other stars showed off their festive Easter and Passover celebrations over the weekend.
The 45-year-old vocal coach, for his part, surprised his wife on Sunday, April 17, when he arrived at their party in a pink rabbit costume.
“Happy Easter to everyone. Welcome,” Shelton signed the Instagram video, walking down the hallway accompanied by his two dogs.
The 52-year-old “Hollaback Girl” singer couldn’t stop laughing in the footage before replying in the comments section: “Thank you.”
Stephanie posted the same clip on her page, calling the village singer “Easter blackie” instead of the more traditional Easter bunny.
Easter — the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus — fell on the same dates as the Jewish holiday of Passover this year. Passover, celebrated in memory of the liberation of the Jews from Egyptian slavery, began with sunset on Friday, April 15.
“We have been engaged in Jewish affairs together since 1984. Happy #Passover,” the 41-year-old Gad signed a Friday selfie on Instagram with friend Seth Gable.
Gabel, for his part, spoke about their seder, commenting: “Live broadcast: Josh has just found a way to tell the children the story of Passover and somehow lead it to a reference to the Ark of the Covenant from In Search of the Lost Ark.”.
Mindy Kaling, who welcomed son Spencer in September 2020, shared a rare snap on Sunday with both the infant and her eldest daughter Katherine “Kit,” 4.
“Even my Hindu family is in awe of the power of Easter,” the 42—year-old creator of the Mindy Project tweeted at the time. “In addition, this is one of the few cases when it is socially acceptable to combine clothes with your children, which, as you can see, I did. Happy Easter and great love to all!”
Kaling previously welcomed Kit in December 2017 and has been talking about her motherhood ever since.
“I am a single mother, but I have the means to help. That is, that is! … I work incredibly hard. Like, work hard, play hard. I definitely work [harder] than I play. And so, I think it’s not bad. I think I’ve never had anything easy, and that’s fine! If I can set an example for her to work hard like me, I think I’ll be happy.”
