Fantasia made headlines this week when news hit that she was booked to perform at an ‘All Lives Matter’ gig.

Many in the Black community frowned on her decision due to the phrase often being used by those who denounce the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement.

The ‘American Idol’ winner’s initial response saw her defend herself, while drawing on Bible verses and biracial relatives to illustrate her argument.

Now, after reflection, the star has issued another statement.

Her words await below…

Her father, Muhammad Ali, may have been celebrated for his tireless activism efforts against racial inequality, but Laila Ali prefers to take the silent approach – or at least that’s what was implied during her recent sit down with ‘Huffington Post’ Live.

On the promotional train to increase awareness about her forthcoming stint on the Arnold Schwarzenegger-hosted ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ (January 2017), the boxing champ was hit with questions about footballer Colin Kaepernick and her thoughts on the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement.

“Yes, black lives matter. Yes, white lives matter, asian lives matter. All lives matter,” she said. “And that’s kind of what my focus is. But it’s hard because, you know, you’ve got sponsors and you’ve got this and you’ve got that. And you don’t want to step on anybody’s toes. And you’re trying to be politically correct, but at the same time trying to uplift your people.” – Ali, 2016

The response above set off a chain reaction of criticism.  See some of it below:

John Legend is not here for Donald Trump.

The singer made that abundantly clear during his insightful sit-down on The Breakfast Club this morning.

Chopping it up with Charlamagne, DJ Envy, and Angela Yee, the ‘All Of Me’ belter offered a damning take on the controversial presidential candidate. Conversely, he showered praise aplenty on Hillary Clinton.

Beyond the political sphere, the 37-year-old spilled on new music (which he says is coming before the year’s end), life as a father, whether he’ll stay signed to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D Music, his growing TV portfolio, and much more.
