‘And I Am Telling You’ singer Jennifer Holliday is still running the media gamut, telling any and everyone who will listen about the controversy that surrounded her decision to perform at president elect Donald Trump‘s forthcoming inauguration celebration (scheduled for January 19th).

Granted, the decision was quickly reversed, but Holliday – who took to ‘The View’ today – told viewers the harassment continued well beyond the announcement of her pullout from the showing.  Specifically pointing a finger at the “Black community” for name-calling, disparaging remarks, and even making death threats, tuck in below to hear Holliday recount the horrifying experience (again):

Looks like ‘Karma’ singer Alicia Keys’ anti-makeup campaign has finally come full circle, if her February spread in ‘Allure’ magazine is anything to judge by.

In what (reportedly) comes as her first editorial wearing makeup since Spring 2016, the songstress took to the fashion mag to dish on everything from president elect Donald Trump to women’s rights, activism, and even played a fun game of “would you rather?” (featuring names such as Beyonce, Solange, Tupac, and more).

“They were calling me coon, calling me house n***er, calling me Aunt Jemima, calling me all kinds of names and asking me to kill myself…and that was from the black community.”

The stinging quote above was delivered by Jennifer Holliday as she recounted the vicious backlash she received for agreeing to perform at president elect Donald Trump‘s inauguration special.  Interestingly, Holliday says it wasn’t the negative response from the Black community that acted as the true catalyst for her to reverse her decision to perform at Trump’s “Make America Great Again! Welcome Celebration” concert on January 19 at the Lincoln Memorial. Instead, it was the kick back from the LGBT community:

“All the tweets that I read from the African American community were directed directly at me. The tweets from the gay community took the issues and did not call me names. Also they have been a faithful community since Dreamgirls to me, and fed me even when the church people didn’t feed me.”

Watch her interview below for some other interesting quotes from her sit down with HLN’s ‘AM Joy with Joy Reid’:

Until then, tuck in below to hear the latest bullsh*t the ‘Kiss Me Thru the Phone’ creator has cooked up:
