Jennifer Holliday Pulls Out of Inauguration Performance, Apologizes to LGBT Community (Exclusive) Jennifer Holliday has canceled her appearance at Donald Trumps inauguration event next week, calling her decision to perform a lapse of judgement.
In an open letter, provided exclusively to TheWrap, the Dreamgirls star apologized to the LGBT community, saying she was uneducated on the issues that affect every American at this crucial time in history and for causing such dismay and heartbreak to my fans.
The Tony and Grammy winner came under fire from some of her fans on Friday after it was announced that she was set to perform at a concert as part of Trumps inauguration festivities.

“The Fag-Nazis are at it again. A big so what.
The entertainment industry is going to find out how meaningless they are.
No one needs any of them for anything.”
When “VR” headsets become an affordable, hi-def reality for everyone these “entertainers” will find out just how much they aren’t needed anymore.
Popular music is dead and the film industry soon will be.
The entertainment industry investigations did not involve Joe McCarthy at all.
Only heard of Doc Holliday and Billie Holliday, not this one
The “Tony” is the award for Broadway excellence, named for Antoinette Perry, but I know nothing about her.
I am very serious when I say I don’t have a clue who she is without doing a google search
She buckled to pressure from the black, gay and lesbian friends who populate her followers when withdrawing from a performance at the Inaugural Concert next week.
She's sufficiently dummied down and ignorant enough to even think that Mr. Trump would succumb to HER pressure as she did to the pressure from her own fans.
In this time of fake news, I'd like to see or hear that she actually got a formal invitation to perform.

Yes she will lose both ways.
STUPID iS AS STUPID DOES. This is like Matthew McConaughey putting his stupid face in with a bunch of shrill anti-Trumpers in the latest snowflake commercial. Dumb ass.
As some of these actors are up for awards in 2017, I think they actually think they will glean more 2017 award votes by going out on their liberal limbs, but in the long run, their careers will be damaged by this.
And she , and those like her, have no idea that they are letting others trample on their own civil rights by dictating how they should think and act - and getting them to apologize for it....
The American left is hysterical & hyper-ventilating since November 9th. And it is not going to stop for at least 4 more years. They just can not believe that their beloved president, soon to be out of power, was not able to push Hillary past the electoral win line.
IIRC, Dumbo Ears was not exactly an unequivocal supporter of LGBT rights when he was first elected, but that didn’t stop the Hollyweird elite from gushing over him.
I guess Jenny didn’t hear about what happened to Macy’s.
Never heard of her.
Me, either.
Someone remind me - I don’t remember what Trump said to offend THAT community! There are so many offenses, one can hardly keep track of them all. I’m really sorry that I didn’t realize this was such an important issue to the country! Oh! Me! Oh! My!
Don’t try to combat the narrative with reality. These people live in an alternate universe-mentally brainwashed.
Matthew 22 Parable of the Marriage Feast 22 Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying, 2 The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son. 3 And he sent his servants to call those who had [previously] been invited to the wedding feast, but they refused to come. 4 Then he sent out some other servants, saying, Tell those who have been invited, Look, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fattened calves are butchered and everything is ready; come to the wedding feast. 5 But they paid no attention [they disregarded the invitation, treating it with contempt] and went away, one to his farm, another to his business. 6 The rest [of the invited guests] seized his servants and mistreated them [insulting and humiliating them] and killed them. 7 The king was enraged [when he heard this], and sent his soldiers and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, The wedding [feast] is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. 9 So go to the main highways that lead out of the city, and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find. 10 Those servants went out into the streets and gathered together all the people they could find, both bad and good; so the wedding hall was filled with dinner guests [sitting at the banquet table].
Who?
ya ,who ?
Ms. Holliday says she “erroneously” thought she’d be performing for Americans, not for Trump. She apologized for being ignorant of the issues.
Huh. Somebody needs to school this fool. Trump is pro-American, that’s why Hillary’s Red Shirts are threatening her.
