“She’s taking this all very seriously, and this shouldn’t supercede a legacy that includes the empowerment of black women,” a source close to Chilli told Page Six. “She’s not that person.”
“She really isn’t MAGA. She voted for President Obama twice. There’s no MAGA community around her. She looks at MAGA as [the Jan. 6th insurrectionists],” they continued.
“This has affected her quite dramatically, and she has been praying with her prayer group every day,” they added.
She attempted to explain the donations, saying: “I didn’t read the fine print. I thought I was supporting causes against human trafficking and for veterans.”
“Her association was based upon conservative values. . . She doesn’t believe in hate. Her message was honest and authentic. She is not feeling well about any of this,” said the source, adding that the singer isn’t technologically savvy and does not own a laptop. Uh, okay.
