Nicole Scherzinger says Christians get a bad rap in Hollywood

[Teletubby 152,647]

Nicole Scherzinger’s outspoken faith makes her something of an outlier in an industry that balks at too much Jesus talk, especially when that talk becomes entwined with Trump messaging. She learned that when she commented on a Russell Brand Instagram post the day after the 2024 election in which the actor dons a red hat with the slogan “Make Jesus First Again.” Scherzinger replied, “Where do I get this hat?!” with prayer hands and red heart emojis. She deleted the comment and apologized for the unintended Trump association, noting: “Many of the marginalized communities feeling hurt and concerned by the results of the presidential election are people I care about most. I stand with them, as I always have throughout my life and career. If you know me, you know that.”

But she isn’t sorry for the Jesus endorsement and notes that she’s not alone in her devotion.

“I have a wonderful church that I go to in Hollywood. Most of my friends in Hollywood are Christians. I think Christianity does get a bad rap, but I think that’s why, if you’re a true Christian, you have to lead by example and be the light,” she says.

Whatever helps her to be happy.  So long as she doesn’t believe in limiting others’ freedoms/happiness based on a her own belief system.

agreed. the Christians I know who actually practice the religion are so full of love and kindness, but the ones who blindly tack the label onto themselves & use it as an excuse to hate are some of the worst people alive

Well religion is the root of all evil so clearly the rap ain't bad enough and we should make it worse

This reminds me of when I was in Sunday school and the youth director would always talk about how persecuted and oppressed Catholics were. When I was a kid, I just kind of absorbed that information, but looking back on it now, that was f*cking insane

Not a native English speaker and I genuinely always thought it was "bad rep" from reputation but it really is "bad rap"   I learned something today

Doesn't sound like it? “Many of the marginalized communities feeling hurt and concerned by the results of the presidential election are people I care about most. I stand with them, as I always have throughout my life and career. If you know me, you know that.”
