Model and activist Amber Rose has endorsed former President Donald Trump for the 2024 Presidential Election, a move that has generated significant backlash among her followers. Rose made the announcement via Instagram, sharing a photo of herself with Trump and his wife, Melania, at a black-tie event. The endorsement has surprised many, given Rose's long-standing advocacy for women's rights and her previous criticism of Trump.

Rose's support for Trump has led to accusations of hypocrisy, especially in light of her role in founding the SlutWalk in 2015 to combat rape culture and victim blaming. Critics have pointed out Trump's history of allegations of sexual harassment and his role in the repeal of Roe v. Wade as reasons why Rose's endorsement is contradictory to her previous activism. Rose has defended her decision on social media, urging followers to make independent political choices and revealing that she has always been conservative.

The endorsement has sparked a heated debate about the influence of celebrities in politics and the responsibilities they hold when endorsing political candidates. Rose's followers have expressed their disappointment, with many unfollowing her on social media and criticizing her for what they see as a betrayal of her previous commitments to women's rights and the Black community.
