Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas of TLC made a number of donations to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign in 2024, FEC records reviewed by The Independent show.

Federal political donation records list contributions to MAGA-aligned Republicans from a Rozonda Thomas of Stone Mountain, Georgia — an address publicly linked to the “No Scrubs” singer.

The records show Thomas made donations totalling $210.60 to WinRed, the payment processor for Republican campaign donations, $340.60 to the Trump National Committee JFC and $486.54 to Never Surrender Inc., a political fund-raising group with links to Trump.

The Independent has contacted TLC’s publicist for comment.

Thomas previously faced backlash for saying “all lives matter” in a 2017 interview when asked about her feelings regarding the Black Lives Matter movement.

The phrase “all lives matter” became a right-wing slogan in response to BLM and has been widely criticized as denying that police violence and discrimination disproportionately affect Black Americans.

“I personally didn't go to any marches or anything like that. For me, all lives matter, you know what I mean?” Thomas told the UK’s Channel 4 News.

“Because there is a time when different groups are targeted for different things. So I just think that what happened, even with the police brutality against these young Black boys and stuff like that — all of that kind of stuff is wrong. Even if it was a caucasian teen kid that this was happening to, it’s just not right. And some people will take that authoritative position and go crazy with it, obviously. I think that before people are hired in these positions, they need to do some kind of better background check or mental stability check on them to see if they can really handle being in a position like that.”

When asked what it was like to be a Black woman in Trump’s America, Thomas’s TLC bandmate Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins chimed in: “I don’t care about Donald Trump. I mean, God is my president. So I just feel sorry for people it affects, but I don’t care about him.”

Would blast her bs on fb.
I debated her a couple of times then decided to keep my peace and distance, cause what I realized was that she felt powerless and was willing to latch onto anything that could fill that space. She’s also mentioned depression and has low spiritual foundation.

I dont think it gives a valid reason at all to fall for a fraud but it happens and similar to the mother in Requiem for a Dream, not everyone is functioning in reality and are willing to go along with anything to escape or cope.

As for Chili, something about how she presented herself on that reality show makes this not too surprising.

They should drop TLC and see if SWV is available, ASAP.

>you never know what you are going to get

Depending how successful is definitely a factor. That life is a different reality. Makeup people, drivers, money, agents, marketing departments. It’s a different reality that can trip you out no matter where one came from.

Some artists heave learned to stay grounded (Denzel, Springsteen etc).

we may think an artist is left leaning and then they open their mouths and its like "wait... what?"

to trump in 2024 (!) is still a bit of a leap...id love to ask her how she feels about his treatment and opinions about women

this was when “grab ‘em by the pussy” was circulating the media.

she looked at me with watery eyes and said “but they’re killing babies”

it was then i understood their thinking

But damn im extra sad that it’s chili though

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. I made a mistake too many make: I did not read the fine print. I thought I was supporting causes against human trafficking and for veterans.

Two things I care deeply about as my dad is a veteran and everyone knows I love children. I have learned a valuable lesson and ask for grace as I navigate this.

Love,
Chilli 💕

I’ve seen screenshots shared of her liking posts about Trump winning Georgia, winning the Presidency, a pro Charlie Kirk post, etc.

If all of that is real and she truly wants to get away from this, she’d be better off saying she was uninformed and manipulated by propaganda back then, and now she finally sees the horror he’s brought, and is no longer a supporter.

not sure how she thought this would play out.

“didn’t read the fine print” is hilarious. Shit has been in bold heavy cap fonts for years.

I hope our Thomas family tree branches are far apart.

I was gonna say that I don’t think Lisa would be on this foolishness, but I can see her being swept up into RFK’s bullshit.

but seriously...i mean, i think her trials and tribulations with dating black men is well documented, and now she's married to a white guy.

could be playing into how she views blackness in general, her own blackness, black men vs. white men, etc. which can trickle down to your politics, obviously.

because their HS GF did them wrong.

*rolls eyes*

We shouldn't even dignify it with the pixels it takes to write this shit.

and may have even felt emboldened to donate and applaud maga due to her husband being a safe space.

and I will never buy the idea that shitty relationships in the past make folks run to the other side.

most times, those folks find the same exact thing they claimed to run from.. its just wrapped up in a different skin color.

Back then (07’?) she made it clear she wasn’t interested in Black men, and throughout show went go on dates with Black men to complain about them. The one white boy on the show had her nose open and she sang his praises.

She’s always been who she is.

IJS....lol

"i do more for both our communities than you'll ever know." - Heinz
"But rest assured, in my luxurious house built on the backs of people darker than me, I am sipping fine scotch and scoffing at how stupid you are." - bshelly

range voice while Chili was in an alto range with a more generic type of tone, important for layered BGVs, hooks, etc.

Any time you hear a singing voice on their songs that isn't low... that's Chilli. "What About You Friends" for instance. The chorus, the ad libs.... Chilli. She even has a solo bridge that begins "People say I act a lil funny, I wouldn't change not for no money." Chilli actually sings most of their choruses. Did yall think T-Boz was just magically making her voice higher for the other parts of the songs? Lol wtf.

I'm legit in shock that people don't know Chili sings, especially in our age bracket. Where have yall been? I understand her politics are unfortunate, but damn, let's not act she's just some untalented 3rd wheel all of a sudden.

Plus he made a good point about Nixon and Black celebrity support.

Apparently he follows Melania and Trump and some other right wingers. I really hope that is not the case.

PS if Lefteye were alive i do not think she would be a Trumper. I know she was out there but still.

“So back we go to these questions — friendship, character… ethics.”

he has those vibes.

Someone else pointed out that he also follows a lot of conventional Democrat accounts, so he might be splitting the difference like lots of celebrities do.

I could see him being MAGA. And I could see him saying he "doesn't follow politics."

That’s highly disappointing.

those albums were classics and he was broke and hungry back then.

A lot of times these people start making big money and change their social circles (go solo) and start hearing about tax cuts and other bullshit and change their stripes. Prolly why he left the group

at least that’s what I want to believe based on the content he was spitting on those early albums.

****************
TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

Snoop or Nelly or whoever - their music content was never about shit, so I don’t find it as disappointing.

Not even expecting artists to be great people just because they have something to say in their music……just don’t be MAGA. It’s not a high bar.

they're taking jobs for money without much regard for how it looks to some of us.

maybe I'm being naive or don't follow any of these folks close enough, but some of the also seem naive or just don't care about the optics. only concerned for the check.

agree on the disappointment with ceelo doing that show.

smells like he was on some “if you cant beat em, join em”

These people are people who work for money like contractors or anyone else. They get offered money to do what they do, and they do it. Ain't like we know what Cee-lo's finances are looking like anyway. Nigga could be broke for all we know. Either way, I think we should all be adult enough to understand this as not being an endorsement of MAGA anymore than a contractor being paid to renovate Trump's bathroom. He didn't pay them. They paid him.

At least I know what my friends here for (c)

Through the years I’m sure more than a few OKPers had those memorable lines in their sig. How TF do you have the emotional maturity to write those powerful lyrics on Soul Food 30+ years ago and fall off so hard?! Yeah, he doesn’t get a pass from me, but whatever, I’m not losing sleep over it.

Now a guy like Nelly? Yeah, he’ll perform at any venue.
