Ray J And Amber Rose Pose In MAGA Hats After Trump Wins U.S. Election

Ray J and Amber Rose occupy an odd pocket in hip hop culture. Both are significant figures dating back a decade plus. That said, neither have played a direct role role in music in recent years, and they become more known for their antics than their careers. Some could argue their antics have become their careers. This definitely seemed the case on November 6. Amber Rose posted a photo alongside Ray J on her IG Story. Harmless enough? Well, the photo was made a bit more controversial by the fact that both celebs were wearing Donald Trump’s MAGA hat.

The timing of the post was not accidental. Trump won his second term as President on November 6, and Amber Rose has been a vocal supporter throughout his campaign. She was more than happy to get Ray J in on the celebration. “Look who I ran into,” she wrote over the photo. Ray sporting a MAGA hat is a bit more surprising than Rose, but not by much. The entertainer has been linked to Trump several times over the years. Usually, on his own accord. Ray J went on Hollywood Unlocked in 2020 and declared that the future U.S. President is “the homie.” He told host Jason Lee that he could get in touch with Trump in the span of a few minutes.

Ray J Has Met With Donald Trump On Multiple Occasions

Ray J also met with Trump in 2022. The entertainer’s manager, David Weintraub, told People that Ray J and Trump spent the day at Mar-a-Lago golfing and talking about business ventures. “He just felt like it was a good time to talk about business and technology and Black empowerment,” Weintraub explained. “What he’s doing right now is he’s exploring options and creating relationships.” Ray J’s affiliation with Trump even led to a spat with fellow artist Kodak Black in 2023.

Ray went to the comment section on DJ Akademiks profile and claimed that Kodak acted disrespectfully when they both went to meet with Donald Trump. “I took him to Trump house and he did the most,” Ray J claimed. “They were not happy with the experience bc he had no guidance and respect. Let’s figure out how we can help this guy instead of watching him self destruct.” Wack 100 dismissed the claims that the Florida rapper misbehaved. Kodak Black himself, denied these allegations during his appearance on the Drink Champs podcast. Regardless, Ray J’s opinion of Trump is seemingly stronger than ever.

Amber Rose Clarifies Beyoncé ‘Copycat’ Accusation as a Friendly Troll Gone Wrong

Over the weekend, Amber Rose found herself in the headlines for suggesting that Beyoncé copied her Republican National Convention speech during a recent rally for Kamala Harris in Houston. But according to Amber, this was nothing more than a lighthearted joke between friends that got seriously misconstrued.

The controversy kicked off after Amber’s comments started circulating, leading fans and media to speculate about a supposed “beef” with Beyoncé. However, as she explained to TMZ, Amber was merely trolling. Out celebrating Halloween in Hollywood, she addressed the misunderstanding, saying it was just a bit of playful shade aimed at Beyoncé—a friend she occasionally ribs for fun. “I troll my friends all the time,” Amber clarified, emphasizing that the supposed accusation was never meant to be taken seriously.

Amber further added that she finds it funny, albeit frustrating, how even lighthearted trolling can spiral into headlines. “You can’t even joke anymore without making international news,” she said. Amber, who has met Beyoncé a few times, expressed surprise at how a casual tease could blow up, pointing out that today’s hyper-connected world doesn’t leave much room for harmless jokes among friends.

Ultimately, Amber Rose’s clarification shows just how quickly talking about Beyonce can turn into a swarm from the Beyhive.

Amber Rose Admits She Was “Trolling” Beyonce By Alleging She Stole Her Kamala Harris Endorsement Speech

Amber Rose has admitted that she was only joking when she called out Beyonce on social media for her speech at a recent Kamala Harris rally. She had commented on a post from The Shade Room that the iconic singer copied her own speech from the Republican National Convention, earlier this year. Now, speaking with TMZ during a Halloween party in Hollywood, Rose says she was just kidding.

“I was literally trolling,” she revealed tot he outlet. “I troll with my friends all the time. I did not think that was going to be international news. I love Beyonce. I know Beyonce. We’ve hung out a few times…. but I was low-key trolling.” From there, she remarked that it’s “crazy” one comment can be “international news.” She added: “I was literally joking.”

During Beyonce’s speech, she brought up the idea of motherhood, something Rose also touched on. “We are at the precipice of an incredible shift, the brink of history,” Beyonce said. “I’m not here as a celebrity, I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in.” As for Rose’s RNC speech, she said at one point: “Most importantly, I’m a mother. My whole world revolves around providing for my children, keeping them safe, and giving them an opportunity for a better life. That’s something that unites all American parents. Whether we’re Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, or liberals, we all want a better country for our children.”

Amber Rose Trolls Beyonce

Amber Rose Shades Beyonce For Kamala Harris Endorsement Speech

Amber Rose is firmly on Donald Trump’s team for this upcoming election between the convicted former president and Vice President Kamala Harris. At the Republican National Convention earlier this year, she gave a speech about the reasons why she stands behind No. 45 and why she opposed the Democratic Party’s candidate. But when the model heard Beyonce speak at a Texas rally in Houston, she couldn’t help but get some deja vu. “She wanna be me so bad. Literally took my whole speech,” she claimed in an Instagram comments section about the superstar’s remarks. Seemingly, it’s over their comments on motherhood.

“We are at the precipice of an incredible shift, the brink of history,” Beyoncé expressed. “I’m not here as a celebrity, I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in.” Here’s an excerpt of Amber Rose’s RNC speech: “Most importantly, I’m a mother. My whole world revolves around providing for my children, keeping them safe, and giving them an opportunity for a better life. That’s something that unites all American parents. Whether we’re Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, or liberals, we all want a better country for our children.”

Amber Rose Reacts To Beyonce’s Kamala Harris Endorsement

Elsewhere, both celebrities are busy dealing with rumors, speculation, and drama surrounding their names. In the case of Amber Rose, she recently addressed the viral fight that she engaged in with Joseline Hernandez on the College Hill: Celebrity Edition reality television series from BET. Rose claimed that Hernandez talked smack about her, but also stated that she never wanted to fight and tried to stay quiet about the whole thing. Finally, she wished Hernandez and her family the best.

On the other hand, Beyoncé and Jay-Z allegedly reached out to Jason Lee for his supposed comments on their friendship with Diddy amid the Bad Boy mogul’s scandal. He doesn’t understand why they supposedly got into contact when his supposed remarks on the matter didn’t even implicate them significantly in his eyes. At press time, the couple hasn’t publicly addressed all the speculative allegations surrounding them and Sean Combs. Instead, they’d rather endorse Kamala Harris for the United States presidency.

Iman Shumpert Firmly Addresses Amber Rose Affair Rumors

When folks spotted Iman Shumpert and Amber Rose together out in Miami Beach last month, they immediately assumed that they were a new item. Moreover, this follows the former’s divorce from Teyana Taylor, which seemed like a relatively amicable split all things considered, albeit not without its messy parts. Furthermore, Shumpert recently spoke to TMZ and cleared up these rumors. “We went to ‘College Hill’ [Celebrity Edition] together. Any other time, y’all would’ve just let us eat, but I get it. Nah, that’s my peoples,” he said, indicating that there’s nothing “romantic” going on between him and Rose. Problem solved?

Well, not quite. Iman Shumpert didn’t directly address the allegations from Teyana Taylor’s friend Dasia Nicole that this supposed Amber Rose fling isn’t just real, but rather an affair that began before Shumpert and Taylor’s divorce. “This is so funny to me,” Nicole wrote in the comments section under an Instagram post from The Shade Room covering the basketball player and Rose’s outing. “Because when we were on that boat on New Years Eve you & your friends villainized me for peeping the sneaky s**t that was going on while Teyana & her kids was on that same boat… and I was right! This proves my point, then you want to be crying a river on that girl phone the next day.

“My friend [Teyana Taylor] has been nothing but graceful this whole time but you played a f***ing game,” Nicole continued her allegations against Iman Shumpert and Amber Rose. “Teyana I’m sorry that I got this deep but I’m tired of taking the high road. You’ve done everything in your power to save this man and his image. @amberrose I wish you would deny it for these blogs because I recorded the whole conversation! & y’all making excuses about him being single but he was good & married when this s**t started. Corny asf!”

Meanwhile, Amber Rose is still on her Donald Trump-supporting media tour, which is getting her more than enough heat these days. We wonder whether she will ever address the allegations that Iman Shumpert cheated on Teyana Taylor with her, or the simpler claims that she’s dating Shumpert.

Amber Rose Backs Donald Trump’s Baseless Claim That Haitian Immigrants Are Eating Pets

After beginning her career as an outspoken feminist and previously stating that she would “never” support Donald Trump when he ran for president in 2016 and 2020, Amber Rose has made a full 180. She spoke at the Republican National Convention after becoming a vocal supporter of the party’s presidential nominee earlier this year. That decision was met with heavy criticism. Fans pointed to her “SlutWalk” initiative and previous support for sexual assault survivors, while pointing to Trump’s lengthy list of sexual assault allegations.

Trump came under fire after his debate with Kamala Harris for several reasons. The biggest reason being the assertion that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are entering the town and eating residents’ pets. Moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis of ABC News immediately refuted the quote, citing a lack of credible evidence. But, the damage was done. Trump’s quote quickly went viral, spawning memes and, evidently, leading to new believers in a wholly unfounded theory. In a brief interview with TMZ on Thursday, Rose backed Trump’s claim.

Amber Rose Backs Donald Trump’s Latest Big Lie

“Haitian immigrants are absolutely eating people’s cats and dogs in Springfield,” Rose stated. When questioned by the interviewer, who cited local officials saying the claims were false, Rose doubled down. She added that she’d seen social media videos corroborating the allegations. “I’ve seen videos online where people claim their pets were taken by Haitian immigrants,” Amber Rose said. Trump said something similar when challenged at the debate, claiming he saw this happening on television. Rose also claimed that Haitian people eating cats and dogs is part of Haitian culture, which is, again, false.

Wyclef Jean, a Haitian immigrant himself, previously denounced Trump’s claims. “On behalf of Haitian Americans, I ask that we stop these racist messages and accusations. Put our hands out in peace and say thanks for being my neighbor,” he said in a statement sent to TMZ on September 12. Amber Rose is not going to be the last to subscribe to this unfounded theory, nor will she be the last rap-adjacent personality to become such a public Trump supporter. As for Trump himself, he’s stated that he has no interest in debating Vice President Kamala Harris again. However, the vice presidential debate between Ohio senator JD Vance and Minnesota governor Tim Walz is on October 1.

Amber Rose Dismisses Fans Who Turned Their Back On Drake’s Music

Amber Rose has spent most of 2024 as a defender. She turned lots of heads when she declared that she supported Donald Trump. She even spoke on Trump’s behalf during the Republican National Convention. Now, it seems the model is turning her attention towards Drake. Amber Rose hopped on social media on August 8 to show that she was playing the rapper’s classic single “Controlla.” She also took the time out to denigrate fans who claim to have jumped off the Drake wagon after a decade and a half. As far as she is concerned, the stance is disingenuous.

Amber Rose made it clear that she still rocks with the Toronto rapper, and anybody who claims not to is kidding themselves. “So we’re all gonna act like Drake’s music isn’t the soundtrack of our lives… ok,” she wrote on Instagram. Rose and Drake have had a complicated relationship over the years. The former was sampled by Drake on the Views song “Faithful,” and the two were seen spending time together in Miami in 2016. Page Six reported that the two celebs were spotted dining “in the wine room at Prime 112.”

Drake Has Shouted Out Amber Rose On Record

Drake would also reference Amber Rose on the 2018 song “Sandra’s Rose.” The rapper even shouted out Rose’s “Slut Walk” charity. “My mother had a flower shop, but I was Sandra’s rose,” he spit. “Two girls that I rope like Indiana Jones. I make them h*es walk together like I’m Amber Rose.” It hasn’t been all love from Rose, however. In 2015, the model used Drake as an example of double standards in the music scene. She criticized outlets for being openly critical of her links to men, while the rapper was said to a bachelor. While Amber Rose gets labeled a “slut,” she lamented that Drake’s escapades are considered part of his “love life.”

Amber Rose and Drake are also linked through Kanye West. Both celebrities were once close with the Chicago rapper, only to have highly publicized falling outs. Rose talked about her time dating West on the Forbidden Fruits podcast. She admitted that it was overwhelming to be with such a polarizing celebrity. “I was the first,” she noted. “I was the girlfriend and then all of the sudden I was by myself walking around.” Drake viewed Kanye West as a mentor during the first leg of the 2010s, only to beef with the rapper for the next decade. West was one of the many rappers who dissed Drake earlier this year. At least he has Amber Rose is his corner.

Amber Rose Shoots Down “Ridiculous” Claim She’s Only Backing Donald Trump For A Pardon

Amber Rose has denied the rumors that her surprising interest in right-wing politics stems from a desire to receive a pardon from former President Donald Trump. She addressed the idea while denying any wrongdoing regarding her past promotions of cryptocurrency in a new video on social media.

“I’ve been seeing comments that the only reason I endorse Trump is because I’m in trouble for a crypto scheme and I want Trump to pardon me,” Rose began. “That’s absolutely ridiculous.” “I’ve never been in trouble my entire life. I’ve never broken the law. I am a law-abiding citizen, and I am a sweetheart.” She added: “I’m not out to scam people. I’ve never scammed anyone in my life. Just stop guys it’s corny. Just come to the terms that Trump is gonna win and he’s the best for our country. I don’t need to get pardoned for sh*t.”

Rose previously addressed rumors about her running cryptocurrency scams on X (formerly Twitter), after the site hit her with a community note on one of her posts. In response, she claimed: “When I made those promotional posts, I wasn’t as knowledgeable about crypto as I am now. At the time, I didn’t fully understand the nature of paid promotions in this space. Moving forward, I want to assure you that I’m committed to this project for the long run and will be heavily involved. My goal is to provide transparent and informed communication to our community.” Check out her latest comments below.

Amber Rose Reveals Ex-Husband Wiz Khalifa Encouraged Her Trump Endorsement

From Slut Walks to MAGA: What Amber Rose Says Converted Her to Putting on the Red Hat

Two months ago, Amber Rose made headlines by endorsing Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential election. In a surprising twist, Rose has now disclosed that it was her ex-husband, rapper Wiz Khalifa, who encouraged her to go public with her support.

In an interview with conservative commentator Candace Owens, Amber Rose opened up about the motivation behind her endorsement. She referenced a social media post from May where she shared a photo of herself with Trump and his wife Melania, captioned “Trump 2024.” Rose revealed to Owens, “My ex-husband actually told me to do it, Wiz.”

The model admitted that she had concerns about how publicly supporting Trump might impact her career. “When I went out on a ledge and I posted the picture with me, Trump, and Melania that was my moment where I was like, ‘I’m f***ing done, I’m done,’” she recalled.

Rose’s endorsement has certainly stirred the public and the entertainment industry, with many weighing in on her unexpected political stance. Her candid admission about Khalifa’s influence adds another layer to the ongoing discourse about celebrities and their political endorsements.

Wiz Khalifa Reacts to Amber Rose-Joseline Hernandez Fight Video: ‘My BM Got Squabbles’

Wiz Khalifa Delivers Surprise Mixtape 'See Ya'

Wiz Khalifa is impressed by recently leaked video of Amber Rose beating up Joseline Hernandez as the two filmed College Hill: Celebrity Edition.

“Damn, my BM got squabbles,” Wiz Khalifa said. “Although I can’t stand Amber now I’m glad to see she whacked Joseline.”

Footage from a fight between Amber Rose and Joseline Hernandez on BET College Hill: Celebrity Edition leaked online.

In footage obtained by TMZ, Rose takes the first swing and gets the best of Hernandez during the fight before it is separated. The video was previously held under wraps, with Hernandez revealing on Drink Champs the fight happened in a Literature class and stating she “put a head through a glass.”

Survey says: that’s a lie. You can see the clip below.

Amber Rose confused everyone after she delivered a speech at the Republican National Convention.

Once known as the creator of the slut walk and an advocate for women’s rights, Rose is now aligned with Trump and the Republicans, who have part of their campaign entrenched in banning abortion and limiting women’s rights.

Speaking on stage, Rose revealed she became a Trump supporter after she could not prove her claims of racism and more in conversation with her father, eventually embracing the MAGA team as “her people.”

“We all want a better country for our children,” Rose said. “But I’m here tonight to tell you, no matter your political background, that the best chance we have to give our babies a better life is to elect Donald Trump president.”

You can hear more of her reasoning below.
