‘I Will Survive’ Singer Gloria Gaynor Donated To Right-Wing Figures Before Being Chosen By Trump For Kennedy Center Honor

Gloria Gaynor is back in the headlines.

FEC records obtained by MeidasTouch show the 81-year-old singer has donated nearly $22,000 since 2023 to right-wing figures and conservative groups, including Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Mike Johnson, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, and New Journey PAC, which targets Black conservative voters. There are no direct donations to Donald Trump.

This comes after Gaynor was chosen by Trump to be honored at the Kennedy Center in December alongside Kiss and Sylvester Stallone. Following the revelation, she deleted her X account and limited comments on her Instagram page amid the mixed reaction.
