AceShowbiz - Amber Rose made waves on social media when she shared a series of pictures and videos from a Republican election night watch party. Celebrating Donald Trump's win, she shared a selfie with Ray J, both sporting "Make America Great Again" hats. "Look who I ran into @rayj," she captioned the photo on Instagram Stories.
Amber's outspoken support for Trump was not just limited to social media. She actively campaigned for him, making speeches at his rallies. One such speech detailed her reasons for backing Trump.
"I'm a model and entrepreneur. ... But most importantly, I'm a mother. My whole world revolves around providing for my children, keeping them safe, and giving them an opportunity for a better life," she declared. "No matter your political background, that the best chance we have to give our babies a better life is to elect Donald Trump, President of the United States."
However, her actions did not come without controversy. Amber went on to accuse pop icon Beyonce Knowles of copying her speech, a move that led to a significant backlash from Beyonce's fervent fanbase. Amber later clarified her statements as trolling, yet the incident left its mark.
Further underscoring her commitment to Trump's candidacy, Amber revealed that she had placed a $15,000 bet on his presidential victory just days before the election. This risky move was her first-ever venture into betting, demonstrating her confidence in Trump's campaign. "I never bet but this feels right," she confessed.
Amber Rose's vocal and financial support for Donald Trump marks a remarkable chapter of celebrity involvement in politics, illustrating the potent influence of social media and public figures in shaping political dialogue. Whether perceived as a genuine belief or a calculated move for attention, Amber's actions during the 2016 election undeniably contributed to the fervent atmosphere of the political landscape.
