Nicole Scherzinger is catching flak online … all because she posted a supportive reply to a Russell Brand post about Donald Trump winning the election.
The Pussycat Dolls singer seems to have pissed a lot of folks after asking Russell where to get a red hat with “Make Jesus First Again” stitched on the front.
Russell shared the hat on social media in the wake of Trump’s big election win … and it looks a lot like Trump’s red Make America Great Again hats … with a religious twist.
People online seem to be interpreting Nicole’s comment as her cosigning Russell and Trump … with some even going so far as to claim she’s “predator enabling.”
Russell has been dogged by sexual abuse allegations, which he’s denied … and in April he got baptized and said he was getting into religion as a way to leave his past behind.
Trump was selling Bibles during his campaign and last year he was found liable for sexually abusing E Jean Carroll.
Nicole didn’t endorse a candidate during the campaign but lots of folks are looking at this as a Trump endorsement … and, with so many people pissed over his win, she’s catching heat.
We reached out to Nicole’s camp … so far, no word back.
