Amber Rose is standing firm in her support for President Donald Trump. His return to the Oval Office only strengthens her stance.
The actress and model faced backlash for backing Trump before the election. But now? The criticism has faded, and she sees it as proof that it was all worth it.
“During the election, I was ‘canceled,’” Rose told Maxim, as the magazine’s February cover star. “Now? All the naysayers are quiet. They see he’s already changing our country for the better.”
At the Republican National Convention this summer, she made it clear—she wouldn’t be silenced.
“I let go of my fear or judgment of being misunderstood, of getting attacked by the left, and I put the red hat on,” she told the crowd. “The left told me to hate Trump. And even worse, to hate the other side: the people who support him.”
“All the naysayers are quiet. They see he’s already changing our country for the better.”
She believes cancel culture is a tool of the “woke” left. “Unfortunately, the ‘woke’ left cancels people for having a different ideology,” she told Maxim. “Fortunately for me, I don’t give a f— and will always stand 10 toes down until the wheels fall off, regardless of what my beliefs may be.”
She used to be on the left. She thought she was doing the right thing. But now, she sees things differently. “On the left, there’s no objective truth. It’s only about feelings,” she stated.
“As a society, we all need to get back to reality and have these difficult conversations to bring us all back to a better place.”
Politics could be in her future. “I still have a lot to learn, but I’m definitely in love with it,” she said.
For now, she hopes her boldness inspires others. “Be persistent and don’t take no for an answer!” she told the outlet. “The worst thing someone can say to you is no. If you’re starting off where I started, it’s only up from there. Believe in yourself!”
