Nicole Scherzinger Apologizes For Post-Election Social Media Post: “From A Place Of Love”

Nicole Scherzinger has issued an apology after engaging with social media posts that were “easily interpreted” as her support for Donald Trump.

The Sunset Blvd. Broadway star’s statement comes after receiving backlash for her response to a photo of Russell Brand wearing a MAGA-style hat that read “Make Jesus First Again,” writing, “Where do I get this hat!!!?” Following fan reactions, Scherzinger wrote Friday on her Instagram Story, “I deeply apologize for the hurt caused by my recent engagement with some social media posts.

When I commented on these posts, I made the mistake of not realizing that they could be easily interpreted as being politically related and I apologize to anyone who understandably reached that conclusion. “Many presumptions are being drawn, which do not reflect who I am, what I stand for, or who I voted for.

Many of the marginalized communities feeling hurt and concerned by the results of the presidential election are people I care about most.
