Dave Chappelle Converted His Religion Into Islam!
Yes! the news about the popular star created a big buzz in the media but he said that his family has a full support for his crucial attempt.
He said,
"I don't normally talk about my religion publicly because I don't want people to associate me and my flaws with this beautiful thing. And I believe it is a beautiful religion if you learn it the right way. It's a lifelong effort. Your religion is your standard. Coming here I don't have the distractions of fame. It quiets the ego down. I'm interested in the kind of person I've got to become. I want to be well rounded and the industry is a place of extremes. I want to be well balanced. I've got to check my intentions, man."
Choosing a religion is solely a private affair but it is no more secret when some convert from one faith to other creating headlines more than usual in the media.
He converted to Islam in the late 1990s and he often admitted that his step has helped him a lot in maintaining his personal standards.
