The singer broke her silence and posted an apology on her Instagram Story on Friday, Nov, 9. 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." Nicole continued: "Many presumptions are being drawn, which do not reflect who I am, what I stand for, or who I voted for,” she continued. “Many of the marginalized communities feeling hurt and concerned by the results of the presidential election are people I care about most.
I stand with them, as I always have, throughout my life and career. If you know me, you know that." She claimed she believed that the post was "encouraging people to choose love and faith — ‘putting Jesus first.
’" Nicole continued: "Christ embodies peace, compassion, hope, and above all — unconditional love, especially for those who may feel it the least right now." The singer concluded the post by writing: "I come from a place of love, and I will always support values that bring us closer together. It’s so important we come together with compassion, and love one another more now than ever.
