Nelly has stirred up a storm after agreeing to perform at an inaugural ball celebrating President-elect Donald Trump’s swearing-in. The "Hot In Here" hitmaker isn’t backing down, though, and defended his decision in a chat with Willie D.

Carrie Underwood, Snoop Dogg and Nelly have faced backlash for agreeing to perform at Donald Trump ’s inauguration party and related events. Underwood, 41, will sing America the Beautiful at the bash on Monday night and said last week that she feels “honored” to be part of a “historic event” at the US Capitol.

Co-hosts of "The View" had an intense debate about whether artists like Snoop Dogg should be judged for performing at President Donald Trump's inauguration.
