I don't know why she should be limited to one "religious" video (and it's not like Alejandro solely incorporated religious imagery) unless it really were a mindless gimmick and that was just one more box to check off.

I understand, Mr. P. I understand 100% where you and Dei are coming from, but, again, the bottom line is -- it's another video with religious themes, in
just over a year. I understand that The Bible is not covered in two videos, but that is not the point. Just because the "Alejandro" video was shot in a blue hue and the "Judas" video is shot in an ember hue with a different storyline will not make a difference to the general consensus. One thing will be seen: religion. And just because the song is named "Judas" does not mean the music video
has to be biblical. She could have made it modern. There are many other possibilities and avenues to take with the song in terms of a music video.
