(FOX NEWS) — “The View” co-hosts defended singer Nicole Scherzinger after she was targeted on social media for liking a Jesus hat in the likeness of the red MAGA hat worn by supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.

Scherzinger, who is currently performing as Norma Desmond on Broadway’s “Sunset Boulevard,” is a former judge on the reality singing competition, “The Masked Singer,” who rose to fame in the 2000s as the lead singer for the all-women musical group, “The Pussycat Dolls.”

She drew backlash on social media this week after expressing interest in a red “Make Jesus First Again” hat shared by British comedian Russell Brand. Brand, who converted to Christianity this year, has expressed support for Trump.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
