TLC's Chilli Denies Trump Support: 'I Am Not MAGA'

Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas, a member of the group TLC, has publicly denied any support for Donald Trump's agenda after facing backlash over alleged donations to his 2024 presidential campaign. Thomas wrote in an Instagram post: 'I WANT TO BE CLEAR: I am not MAGA and do not support any of the many policies that are causing great harm to the American people'.

The singer admitted to making a mistake by not reading the fine print, believing she was supporting causes against human trafficking and for veterans, issues she deeply cares about as her father is a veteran. Through the post, she asked for grace as she navigates this situation.

Federal Election Commission (FEC) records appear to indicate that a Rozonda Thomas of Georgia made 17 donations to various organizations in 2024. These included WinRed, a fundraising platform for the Republican Party, the Trump National Committee JFC, INC. and Never Surrender, Inc., a political action committee (PAC) associated with Trump.

The controversy arises at a delicate moment, especially after TLC's announcement to join Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue for the 'It's Iconic' tour, whose dates were announced three days before their first joint performance at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards.

Thomas also posted a video addressing the reports, calling them 'very concerning,' related to a previous, now-deleted post in which she allegedly shared a right-wing conspiracy theory alleging that former First Lady Michelle Obama is not a biological woman.

The artist expressed her utmost respect and admiration for Michelle Obama and denied having any knowledge of the repost until she received calls and messages. She suggested that the repost was accidental, due to her lack of skill with technology, mentioning the proximity of the buttons on the platform.

The controversy comes just days after TLC announced that they would be joining Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue for the 'It's Iconic' tour. The announcement of the tour dates came three days before their first joint performance at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards.

The 'It's Iconic' tour is scheduled to begin on August 15 in Franklin, Tennessee.
