Amber Rose, the ex-girlfriend of Kanye West, has been in the spotlight recently for her endorsement of Donald Trump during the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Rose claimed that the media had 'lied to us' about Trump, stating her belief shifted after attending his rallies and meeting his supporters [b2acab8c]. Despite her previous activism against sexual violence, her support for Trump, who was found liable for sexual abuse in 2023, has drawn significant criticism [b2acab8c].
Following the RNC, where Trump made an appearance with a bandaged ear after surviving an assassination attempt, Rose was spotted enjoying the sun in Miami with NBA star Iman Shumpert on September 18, 2024. This sighting comes after Rose faced backlash for her political beliefs, particularly in light of Trump's recent felony conviction [8bac4962]. During her endorsement, Rose expressed that Trump makes her feel 'protected,' a sentiment that has been met with mixed reactions on social media [8bac4962].
The RNC event sparked discussions about the implications of public figures endorsing controversial political figures and the potential impact on public safety. Rose's affiliation with the Republican party and her controversial lifestyle have led to scrutiny from conservative critics, further complicating her public persona [9e6f94e8] [b2acab8c].
Rose's personal life has also been a topic of interest; her previous relationship with Alexander 'A.E.' Edwards ended in 2021, and Shumpert's divorce from Teyana Taylor occurred in 2023. The combination of her political stance and personal connections continues to generate headlines and social media discussions [8bac4962].
