Amber Rose is not a fan of Ariana Grande's latest political statement!
The model has weighed in on the singer's decision to champion a massive protest against ICE and the ongoing crackdown on immigrants in the United States, calling it insensitive of her to urge people to down their tools.
Amber Rose has been vocal about her support for the Donald Trump administration, admitting more than once that she has no problems with being canceled by the "woke" left.
Amber Rose Weighs In On Ariana Grande's 'ICE OUT' Post

The internet influencer came down hard on Grande and Billie Eilish during her latest appearance on Sneako's live stream, and she shared what she feels about their recent anti-Trump stance.
She accused Eilish and Grande of distancing themselves from Nicki Minaj following her public show of support for Trump. According to Rose, severing ties and ending friendships over political inclinations is very unnecessary, especially after the election period is over.
The 42-year-old emphasized that since everyone in the United States lives in a free country, they should also be able to support their preferred candidate without fear of isolation by their loved ones.
"If you're gonna endorse someone or vote for someone, this isn't an election anymore. He's actually the president now, so if you can go in and you can make a change and you can help people, you should," the star declared.
She then analyzed Grande's latest post, where she urged people to go out and protest while staying off work and school. In Rose's words:
"Ariana Grande, who I think is worth two hundred and fifty million dollars, telling people not go to work, protest ICE, it's like, girl, shut the f-ck up, are you going to give your money away to these people to stay home from work? Like, stop telling people to do that."
Social Media Users Also Questioned The Nickelodeon Alum's Commitment To The Protest

Rose's verdict on Grande's call for protest basically mirrors what some internet users expressed yesterday shortly after the singer shared a "ICE OUT NATIONWIDE SHUTDOWN, NO WORK. NO SCHOOL. NO SHOPPING. JAN 30, 2026," post on her Instagram Story yesterday.
As shared by The Blast, the post encouraged interested protesters to sign up for the march and make their grievances with Trump's unbearable immigration policies known.
Following the post, some commenters on X stated that joining the march meant people would leave their means of livelihood for a few hours and miss out on getting paid.
One commenter noted how it might be hard for normal people who have jobs to leave their work, and some parents may not be able to pay for nanny services while they are gone for the protest.
"Imagine being so privileged to think people can afford missing work…," another X subscriber wrote in response to Grande's post. While she duly earned admiration for being so proactive, it was not enough to water down tons of comments about her being tone deaf and insensitive.
When Did Amber Rose's Support For Donald Trump Begin?

The mother-of-two spoke at the Republican National Congress in 2024 about how her father changed her mind towards the reservations she carried about the Trump administration. According to Rose, her father was the first person she knew who supported Trump.
She recalled getting shocked at that fact, especially given the fact that she comes from a very racially diverse family; she believed "the left-wing propaganda that Donald Trump was a racist," but her father convinced her otherwise.
According to her, she got into a back-and-forth with her father over the issue, and to prove him wrong, she embarked on research into everything Trump had done.
"I realize Donald Trump and his supporters don't care if you're black, white, gay, or straight, it's all love. And that's when it hit me, these are my people, this is where I belong," she concluded.
The 42-Year-Old Sided With Nicki Minaj When She Voiced Her Support For Trump

Rose was also very vocal last December when the internet first dealt with the possibility of Minaj throwing her weight behind the politician in a series of social media posts. As noted by The Blast, Rose expressed her bewilderment over the fact that Minaj was getting so much smoke for exercising her political rights.
She insisted that the rapper did nothing wrong by supporting Trump, nor would her LGBTQ fanbase be affected by her political leanings, because the Trump administration was not homophobic from her perspective.
From singing the president's praises on social media to gracing the seat at Erika Kirk's Turning Point ( which was formerly hosted by the late Charlie Kirk), to saying nice words about Vice President JD Vance, Minaj seemed to have done a 180 in recent times.
She also seemed to have gained over 100k followers from becoming the latest celebrity MAGA cheerleader.
Nicki Minaj Was Not A Fan Of The 47th President Years Ago

The mother-of-one's sudden turn towards singing Trump's praises definitely came as a rude shock because just about six years ago, she was front row condemning Trump's anti-immigration policies and separating loved ones at the border.
Minaj often referred to her entry as an illegal immigrant in the United States and how she had to struggle alongside her mother to make a life for herself. As shared by The Blast, she had also used Trump as the poster person for misogyny in the entertainment industry decades ago during an appearance on MTV.
She also touched on his approach during the presidential campaign in 2015, describing it as very childish and annoyingly hilarious. The internet still remains in endless shock at the sudden change in Minaj's approach, especially since she is known for standing against injustice and unfair treatment.
