Famous rapper Snoop Dogg lost more than 500,000 followers on Instagram and nearly 20,000 on the X following his appearance at Crypto Ball, a festive event associated with the inauguration of Donald Trump.
The singer’s Instagram “Gin and Juice” fell with 571,800 and 17,177 to the X after fans accused Snoop of hypocrisy because of his criticism in the past against Trump.
Snoop Dogg, who boasted 88.1 million followers on Instagram since Monday, is not the only famous character in List A who has followers abandoning him in a multi -permeable support for the Republican President.
Kim Kardashian, a reality television star and entrepreneur, lost nearly 150,000 social media followers after she posted an image of first lady Melania Trump dressed in an inauguration dress.
Snoop Dogg’s performance in January. 17 triggered significant reactions from fans and commentators, according to the social media marketing firm viralyftm which analyzed the decline.
Critics emphasized his previous anti-trump stance and speculated that financial incentives may have motivated his participation.
“Shaking and crying while Unfollow Snoop Dogg on all platforms,” wrote a alienated fan on X, adding emoji with “sad face”.
“How can he get us back?” wrote Fans.
Another Snoop fan complained: “I have to cancel anyone who performs for Trump. I like a little snoop dogg, but I have to go brother.”
“Hell, I had to do Unfollow Snoop Dogg today because he broke my heart,” wrote one of X.
In response to criticism, Snoop Dogg addressed the issue on Instagram live, stating, “You can’t hate me enough. I want a lot … Still a black man, still 100 percent black.
In particular, other artists such as Nelly and Carrie Underwood also participated in inauguration -related events – a trend signaling a more nuanced approach from eager artists to separate politics from professional engagements.
Last year, Snoop Dogg seemed to be warm with Trump, saying the Sunday Times: “Donald Trump? He has done nothing wrong with me. ”
“He has done only great things for me. Hey, forgive me Michael Harris. ”
During Trump’s first term, he gave mercy to Michael “Harry O” Harris, co -founder of Death Row Records, who had served a life sentence for 25 years for drug trafficking and attempted murder.
Snoop Dogg and others lobbied for Harris’s mercy.
Kardashian, who considers Ivanka Trump as Mike, successfully lobbied the then president in 2018 to mitigate the life sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, who was imprisoned for drug trafficking.
