TLC singer Chilli apologizes for Trump donations and accidentally sharing post about Michelle Obama

TLC member Chilli posted a statement saying she is not MAGA and made a mistake by donating to Trump's campaign, claiming she thought she was supporting veterans and anti-trafficking causes. She also addressed accidentally sharing a post that called Michelle Obama a man, saying she hit the repost button while scrolling and immediately took it down when notified. Federal Election Commission records show she made 17 contributions totaling hundreds of dollars to Trump-affiliated groups during the 2024 election.
