Nicole Scherzinger has publicly apologized for a comment regarding a "Make Jesus First Again" hat, which was perceived by many as political. She shared that her intention was to support faith and unity, not to take a stance on divisive issues.

In response, Scherzinger issued a statement on her Instagram Stories, acknowledging how her comment could be misinterpreted. She emphasized her support for marginalized communities and explained that her words were inspired by her Christian faith, particularly during a time when many may feel vulnerable. Nicole clarified that her comment aligned with her belief in compassion and unconditional love.


She wrote,  "I deeply apologize for the hurt caused by my recent engagement with some social media posts. When I commented on these posts, I made the mistake of not realizing that they could be easily interpreted as being politically related and I apologize to anyone who understandably reached that conclusion." Furthur adding, "For me, Christ embodies peace, compassion, hope, and -- above all -- unconditional love, especially for those who may feel it the least right now."

She further expressed disappointment over assumptions made about her political stance and assured fans that her personal beliefs and values were not accurately reflected by the misunderstanding. She also reaffirmed that the message she resonated with was about embodying peace and hope.
