Blame It On Y’ALL: Chrisette Michele Defended Tina Campbell & Got Her Basquiat Skirt Shredded

Paul Zimmerman/WireImage/Leon Bennett/FilmMagic In the key of CUT IT OUT, don’t do this sis… Chrisette Michele Defends Tina Campbell After Tina Campbell got Psalms scalped for admitting to voting for Trump , she’s got a new ally. Chrisette Michele whose social media confession about being dropped by her label and suffering a miscarriage (complete with a picture of a miscarried fetus) sent Twitter into a tizzy, has something headazz to say. According to the “Blame It On Me” singer, she stands with her fellow “strong black woman” Tina Campbell who’s entitled to her opinion on Cheeto In Chief and shouldn’t be “choice shamed.” “Adults do this thing I’d like to call “choice shaming”,” wrote Chrisette. “We can disagree without division.” . @IamTinaCampbell Adults do this thing I'd like to call “choice shaming”. It mimics what children do with bullying. It causes a silencing that mutes the people who have made great contributions. We can disagree without division.

There is no “choice-shaming” at work here. You both became rich & famous through the love and patronage of Black people, only to betray the community by supporting a political platform built on white supremacy. You're not entitled to the Black community's unconditional support. — woman thou art lucid (@CrystalLewis) October 28, 2017 See, this is getting ridiculous. Y’all decided to support a person who is known for homophobia, racism, sexism, and is a bully. You made an intentional choice to perform as she did in voting for him. These are consequences. — PrestonMitchum (@PrestonMitchum) October 28, 2017 So for Tina Campbell’s yet to comment. Yes Chrisette, you and Tina are entitled to your grossly wrong opinions, you’re also entitled to tour pushbacks and label dropping . Enjoy sis! More comments on Chrisette and Tina on the flip.
