Sister '''Cristina Scuccia''' (also known as '''Suor Cristina''', Italian for "Sister Christina"; born 19 August 1988) is an Italian singer and former Ursuline nun who won the 2014 season of ''[[Series/TheVoice The Voice Italy]]''. She first gained prominence for performing "No One" by Music/AliciaKeys, partly due to the novelty of a nun participating in a pop music competition. Cristina chose to be part of Team J-Ax, and wore her usual nun's habit throughout the contest. In the final, she won the trophy with 62% of the Italian votes against runner-up Giacomo Voli. After winning, she thanked God and recited the Lord's Prayer to the show organizers and audience.

After a period of silence, in 2022 Scuccia appeared in an Italian talk show—clad in high heels and trousers—[[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/nov/21/nun-won-the-voice-of-italy-left-order-sister-cristina-scuccia announcing her departure]] from the convent she served for the past fifteen years in favour of further pursuing her musical career. While some have understandably been [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qr6S-HyoO0 upset]] by her sudden exit from her vocation in favour of a worldly pursuit, Scuccia assured her fans that she hasn't renounced her faith either.

After winning, she thanked God and recited the Lord's Prayer to the show organizers and audience.
Her victory during the 2014 season of ''The Voice Italy'' landed her a contract with Universal, during which she released her debut album ''Sister Cristina''. While the lead single–a cover of Music/{{Madonna}}'s SignatureSong "Like A Virgin"–raised eyebrows due to its previously sexually provocative nature, Scuccia defended her use of the song as she interpreted it in a more spiritual light i.e. a person's relationship with God. "Like A Virgin" was then followed by the single "Blessed Be Your Name".
And while she is no stranger to theatre herself, her success as a pop singer also landed her a role in an Italian theatre production of the musical ''Film/SisterAct''.

!!She's associated with the following tropes:
----
* ChristianRock
* TheCoverChangesTheMeaning: She subverted "Like A Virgin" by performing it as a softer, downtempo ballad and interpreting it as about one's relationship with God as opposed to the innuendo most people associate with the Madonna single.
* CoverVersion: Most of her output is this, particularly "Like A Virgin".
* GodIsLoveSongs: Her interpretation of "Like A Virgin", in that she views it as about her relationship with God.
* LimitedWardrobe: Being how a nun like her is expected to wear her habit all the time.
* NunsAreFunny: Her success as a pop-rock act was partly due to the novelty of being a singing nun, which inevitably drew comparisons to ''Film/SisterAct''.
* SofterAndSlowerCover: "Like A Virgin", which Scuccia turned into a more heartfelt ballad.
