Hey gang,
I’ve recently stumbled upon an incredible cult leader named INRI CRISTO. He is a Brazilian fellow who claims to be Jesus and he has a bunch of youtube videos up wherein some of his female followers are dressed sort of like nurses or flight attendants and sing popular songs with the lyrics changed to be about how great INRI CRISTO is.

If you’ve ever thought to yourself “Boy, I sure could use a zesty Latin American Saviour” then INRI CRISTO is for you. His sermons are in Portuguese and he sits on a throne next to a Brazilian flag. I already knew that Brazil had a first rate soccer team and a totally kick ass rain forest, but I had no idea that they also had the founder of Christianity. To help you take your first step toward mystical enlightenment, here’s the INRI CRISTO-fied version of “Umbrella” by Rihanna.

For some reason it’s just not as catchy as the original, non-cult version.

They also do “Toxic” by Britney Spears which isn’t half bad. They should do an INRI-fied David Bowie song, then maybe they’d make it onto the soundtrack of a Wes Anderson film.

If you’re really curious, they explain INRI CRISTO’s origin story in their version of “The Eye of The Tiger,” which while offering up a lot of information about their leader, disappointed me for not showing footage of either INRI or the girls drinking raw eggs and punching animal carcasses. C’mon cult people, you can do better.
