The 'Masked Singer' judge catches heat after she comments on Russell Brand's Instagram post celebrating Trump's victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
- Nov 8, 2024
AceShowbiz - In the wake of the election results that have divided America, Nicole Scherzinger has stirred the Internet with her unwarranted disclosure about her political stance. After relatively staying quiet ahead of the election, the singer/actress has now subtly come out as Donald Trump's supporter.
The former The Pussycat Dolls member made it be known whom she was voting for after she commented on Russell Brand's post celebrating Trump's victory. On Tuesday, November 5, the comedian uploaded to his Instagram page a picture of him waving a red "Make Jesus First Again" hat to the camera. "God Bless America," he captioned the image.
Scherzinger apparently took a liking to the MAGA-resembling accessory and planned to get one for herself. In the comments section, she asked, "Where do I get this hat!!!?" adding a praying hands emoji and a red heart emoji.
While many echoed Brand's excitement with the election results, Scherzinger's comment particularly stood out as people were shocked by her apparent conservative view. "Bye Nicole !" a disappointed fan said to the 46-year-old star.
Another was not surprised, pointing out, "Did you nor forget how excited she was when rudy gilliani was a guest on mask singer while others walked off upset because of who he was and who he supported she and ome other person stayed. Her supporting Trump does not suprise [sic] me."
Others, however, refused to quickly jump to conclusion. "Her saying this doesn’t at all means she supports trump," someone argued. Another tried to reason, "I mean maybe she didn't realize in some weird way it's a mock of a trump hat, but I don't think she meant any harm. I think she was more referring to it in a religious sense."
Some others defended "The Masked Singer" judge regardless her political stance. "So? People can support who they want ... that is why we are lucky to live in America!" someone stated. Another clapped back at the critics, "So what's wrong with you people we vote for whoever we want."
