Why Is Chrisette Michele Performing at Donald Trump’s Inauguration?
In a bit of surprising, if not disappointing news, The New York Daily News is reporting that Chrisette Michele is set to join Donald Trump's D-List inauguration performance line-up.
Sources close to the festivities have reportedly confirmed that the Grammy winning singer will be on the bill. For real. Reportedly, the deal with Michele was set weeks ago but has been kept quiet because the singer rightfully feared criticism from her fans (see: Jennifer Holliday who pulled out of performing after facing backlash).
If the reports are accurate, Chrisette will join 3 Doors Down, Toby Keith and Sam Moore of Sam & Dave fame who are slated to perform. Already people are questioning why on earth she'd make the decision to perform for Trump. Check out some of the commentary below. Who knows, she may end up backing out like Jennifer Holliday.
