Christ To Wed Longtime Backup Singer

NASHVILLE—It was confirmed Tuesday that Jesus Christ, 1,996, is engaged to Felicia Tufton, 38, who has sung backup on all of Christ’s albums since 1983’s Ridin’ The Beams. “We are very excited about this new chapter in Jesus’ life,” said Gerald Hart, Christ’s manager. “The couple will take a two-week break for the wedding at the end of their current tour, and after the honeymoon, they’ll be back in the studio finishing Jesus’ forthcoming album, The Long Haul.” In the wake of His decision to marry, Christ says His plans of redeeming humanity from sin will be put on hold “indefinitely” while He pursues family life.
