In 2020, Gal Gadot and a number of other celebrities performed an online version of the song entitled "Imagine (Quarantine Edition)", intended to raise morale in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic [1].
I wondered if this would be entered in at some point as it was widely seen and courted some controversy. Some liked the united message, where as others 'criticized it for being a tone-deaf message from a group of socialites and elites who were largely unaffected by the pandemic' [2] [3].
There are a variety of sources on the matter. The quote above is written on the " Imagine (John Lennon song)" wiki. Arrtpod ( talk) 15:42, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

The YouTube video given stating she was born in Petah Tivka seems to be a badly filmed YouTube video of an Israeli tv show. Gal herself says was born in Tel Aviv and @ Elizium23: says the source from The Forward where she says she was born in Tel Aviv is acceptable per WP:NEWSBLOG. This article from The Times of Israel says she was raised in Rosh HaAyin although I know in the past her Wiki article claimed she might've been born in Rosh HaAyin. I now want to know the consensus? I'm guessing until further notice, its okay to keep Tel Aviv as her birthplace and keep the hidden note about not to change that? There seems to be a lot of conflicting reports on Gadot's birthplace and I just want to settle this now because for a few years there's always been a back and fourth about her birthplace. Clear Looking Glass ( talk) 23:58, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
User @ LucyAyoubBrother: changed her birthplace again, citing the same YouTube video that's now private. Gal's claim of her birth place in an English language interview seem to be the best source we have unless someone can provide a better source. Which as mentioned above, we haven't found. I reverted the changes. "LucyAyoubBrother", if you feel this is wrong, then provide a better, WP:Reliable source and discuss here. Clear Looking Glass ( talk) 19:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
Gal lives in Givat Tal in Rosh HaAyin HaHadasha, with her father Michael and mother Irit. She is the eldest in a family of two daughters. She graduated from high school with a biological major, with an impressive grade point average, and also studied jazz and hip-hop.", Givat Tal is the name of the neighborhood and Rosh HaAyin HaHadasha is the nickname of the area in the city (meaning The New Rosh HaAyin), jazz and hip-hop reffering to dance.
Translated transcript of 03:24-04:30 Narrator: As a child she participated in athletics competitions as a high jumper and even won several medals. In elementary school she attended Eshkol School and even then was drawn to the stage and began to study dance. Shiri Getz (dance choreographer): "She started studying with me in fourth grade. You know coming with all the girlfriends from school, she instantly stand out in her look, she was always so tall. No matter where she stood, in what line she stood, she had it. If we're been on TV shows on the Kids's channel, in Shemesh, always, even in pictures with the artists, you always see all the girls being photographed with the artist and she always made sure to be next to the artist with her smile, with her look. I do not know if people will be able to recognize her because back then she was with braces in her teethes and with little Kara (haircut). Narrator: In high school, she studied biology at the Begin School and did not abandon dance. |
International star Gal Gadot revealed in an interview with American W magazine that the first street she lived in was Stampfer in Petah Tikva.", Stampfer after Yehoshua Stampfer. You can watch the interview on YouTube (timestamp 1:27). Just in case something would happend to the video, there's a duplicate by Vanity Fair France. I'm hoping this clears things up. Sokuya ( talk) 17:51, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
@ Sokuya: - The video you tried showing doesn't show up for me. I just see a screen in Hebrew with no video, seemingly asking for me to register. Can you please find the exact moment where the television show says that she was born in Petah Tivka and then post the translation here? Then maybe we can get a more experienced user here for a final say or add both as her birthplace with a note explaining the conflicting sources, because Gadot herself has clearly said she was born in Tel Aviv in an English-language interview. I have looked at the interview for the Petah Tikva newspaper you provided, and the YouTube video interview for W Magazine and Vanity Fair France. She never explicitly says that she was born in Petah Tivka. They merely ask her what was the first street she lived in. Not that she was born there. The interview stating that she lives/is from Rosh HaAyin, and her going to school in Rosh HaAyin also doesn't mean that she wasn't born in Tel Aviv either. Someone could be born in one city and then move to another shortly after their birth. Until then, Gadot straight up saying that she was born in Tel Aviv is still the best and clearest source we have. Perhaps we could mention her growing up in Petah Tivka in addition to Rosh HaAyin. Clear Looking Glass ( talk) 06:46, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
There. I made the note explaining the situation because too many sources give conflicting information and I'm not sure who to believe. She herself has stated in an English-language interview that she was born in Tel Aviv, though Hebrew-language sources say she was born in Petah Tikva, and several other sources have claimed she was born in Rosh HaAyin. [4] [5] Although a 2017 interview with Gadot only mentions that she was raised in Rosh HaAyin. Judging from all that, this likely narrows it down to either Petah Tikva or Tel Aviv, so I've put both cities there with the note. Clear Looking Glass ( talk) 06:09, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
OK, first of all putting a note is way better than just write Tel Aviv. Let me try again to explain the situation. Gadot was born in the city of Petah Tikva, and then moved with her family to Givat Tal neighbourhood in Rosh HaAyin when she was little, because she also went to Eshkol Elementary School. Hebrew Wikipedia stating that she moved when she was 8-year-old. This is based on the Israeli documentry series DocuCeleb, the series doing in-depth researches on Israeli celebrities. Gadot was featured in an episode that aired on February 18, 2013 on HOT Bidur Israeli network (HOT Israeli Entertainment), now known just as HOT Bidur (HOT Entertainment). They even interviewed her mom for the episode so its very reliable material.
1. Does Gal Gadot was *born and raised* in Petah Tikva? – FALSE she was raised in Rosh HaAyin:
I'm Gal Gadot, 18.5-years-old from Rosh HaAyin, many articles mentioning her to be from Rosh HaAyin: subheader reads "Gal Gadot from Rosh HaAyin is only 23 years old" (from 2009), "Three years ago she was still a beautiful girl from Rosh HaAyin who did not dream of the world of glamor." (from 2007), article saying "The little girl from Rosh HaAyin who dreamed of becoming a pharmacist and studied biology" (from 2016), a facebook post (from 2018) promoting the Anashim featured episode (the another celebrity documentary series I'v mentioned before part one, part two) saying
Gal Gadot Full story: How did the girl from Rosh HaAyin become one of the most influential and talked about women in the world?. She even make a joke about Rosh HaAyin in a HOT commercial (from May 2019) saying
We're proud in our city, (Hollywood sign turn into Rosh HaAyin sign, and then she whisper) there nowhere like Rosh HaAyin( video timestamp 0:22-0:27), there was even an initiative in 2017 to named a street after her in Rosh HaAyin, it was a PR move in order to promote the Justice League movie in Israel as other article explain:
The idea to name a street after the successful international actress Gal Gadot came up in the municipality after the distributors of the "Justice League" in Israel asked for their help in promoting the film in Israel.. Some databases still mentioning Rosh HaAyin as a birthplace, cause it's consider her hometown. In conclusion: defently didn't grow up only in Petah Tikva.
2. Does Gal Gadot was *born* in Petah Tikva? – TRUE
3. Does Gal Gadot was *born* in Tel Aviv? – not likely
Gadot is alredy very famous both in Israel and USA so there a little chance someone will make a another profile article about her childhood that she was born in that city and moved to that city. They can't mention it everytime they write about her. Probably only documentries will do it. We should use the DocuCeleb, W Magazine and Heberew Wikipedia to say that she was born in Petah Tikva, we can dissent this by writing in a note about the Forward interview only. However, I think its redunant because its only one inerview to a foreign newspaper early in her international career. Sokuya ( talk) 08:07, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
