Pop singer Madonna who is an avid follower of Kabbalah religion, has hit out at Paris Hilton for damaging the credibility of the mystical Jewish faith and insists that such actors merely dabble with the religion, with no intention of practicing it.

“People like Paris Hilton who come into a centre and buy a book or a band and that’s it for them. It doesn’t mean they study it. It’s very hard to be a believer. I’m very serious about it,” the 47-year-old fumed to Britain’s Radio One.

Since Madonna, and her husband Guy Ritchie, converted to the Kabbalah, a host of stars, like-Britney Spears, Demi Moore and husband Ashton Kutcher, Victoria Beckham, Elizabeth Jagger and others have followed in her footsteps and became involved with the religion.

Earlier this week, Madonna defended her interest in Kabbalah, and rejected media’s descriptions of it as cult, claiming she would have sparked less controversy if she joined the Nazis.
