Who is Gina Loudon? The Trump surrogate appeared on Wife Swap and Sean Hannity’s radio show, is anti-abortion, and now faces backlash for accusing Ariana Grande and Wicked of ‘racial appropriation’
The Maga mouthpiece wrongly called Grande Hispanic, dubbing her performance ‘racist’ – the mum of 5 previously spoke out against a ‘sinful’ couple on Wife Swap as well as ‘the horrors of abortion’
But among all the praise heaped on Grande, one dissenting opinion has caused a stir. In early December, Maga mouthpiece Gina Loudon made headlines when she deemed Wicked “offensive” and “racist”; she also wrongly claimed that Grande was “obviously” Hispanic, saying her casting amounted to “racial appropriation”.
On a show hosted on far-right cable network Real America’s Voice, Loudon aired her thoughts on the film, saying, “Let’s just start with the fact that they have Ariana Grande, who is obviously a Hispanic woman, playing the part of a ditsy, blonde, white, really, villain, when it comes right down to it, for this particular movie.
“The racism and racial appropriation I just thought was offensive, frankly. All white people aren’t dumb and evil, and I just get kind of sick of that storyline,” she added.
She has strong Maga credentials
