As the January 20 presidential inauguration, a handful of artists who originally agreed to perform at President-elect Donald Trump’s big day have already jumped ship, including singer Jennifer Holliday (Flo Rida was never scheduled to begin with.) But former Motown singer and Rick Ross collaborator Chrisette Michele has reportedly signed up for the job to the dismay of countless of her alleged fans. Questlove is one of many who aren’t having it. In fact, The Roots’ funky drummer said he would actually pay Michele not to perform via Twitter.
According to New York Daily News, Michele’s publicity camp has reportedly kept this a secret for the past week for fear of backlash, but as soon the news hit social media, naturally it was a modern day witch hunt for the Grammy Award-winner’s head.
