Broadway Star Nicole Scherzinger Faces Criticism For Her Reaction To Election Results On Social Media; DEETS

As a long-time fan of Nicole Scherzinger, I must admit that her recent political moves have left me quite puzzled and disappointed. Having supported her since her days with the Pussycat Dolls and seeing her rise as an X Factor judge and Broadway artist, it’s disheartening to witness what seems like a betrayal of the very community that has kept her career alive for so long.


Nicole Scherzinger, previously a member of the Pussycat Dolls and a judge on X Factor, transitioned into a Broadway artist and has recently been praised by critics. However, after expressing positive sentiments about the recent US election results, she faced criticism from some individuals. Despite this, Scherzinger has been well-received in New York’s theater community and is being recognized for her exceptional performance on Broadway this season. The actress, who is a potential Tony Award recipient for her role in Sunset Blvd., responded positively to a post congratulating Donald Trump on his victory.

In simpler terms, the Instagram post was originally shared by Russell Brand, who is known for his comedy, has converted to Christianity, and faces accusations of sexual misconduct. Following the election results, he posted a picture where he’s wearing a hat resembling a “Make America Great Again” cap, but instead, it reads “Make Jesus First Again.

Under the post, Scherzinger expressed, “Where can I find this hat?” This comment, while not explicitly referencing MAGA or Trump, is perceived as an endorsement strategy. Given that in 2008, she backed Barack Obama’s campaign and championed the LGBTQIA+ community, her apparent support for Trump seemed like a surprising shift, causing some to feel betrayed.

On platform X, a user known as The Broadway Slasher posted a tweet that scrutinized Scherzinger’s political actions or remarks. This user asserted that Scherzinger’s career has been primarily sustained by the financial support of her LGBTQIA+ fans for the past 15 years, when few others were interested in her work. According to the user, this is a disappointing act of betrayal.

A different user commented, “It’s surprising to see Nicole Scherzinger expressing support for Donald Trump, especially given that she’s on the brink of a Tony Award nomination.” The user pointed out that the LGBTQIA+ community plays a significant role in Broadway, making her stance seem hypocritical. They further remarked, “After struggling with her solo career and finding success, it’s disappointing to see her potentially tarnishing her newfound niche.
