Celine Dion is not on good terms with Donald J. Trump after he used her popular hit “My Heart Will Go On” throughout his campaign rally.
On Friday, August 9, the 78-year-old previous president played the 1997 hit song from the Titanic movie as his anthem, but the 56-year-old singers group exposed that his use of the song was unauthorized.
In a declaration released on X, her management composed, “Today, Celine Dions management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unapproved usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and similarity of Celine Dion singing My Heart Will Go On at a Donald Trump/ JD Vance campaign rally in Montana.”
They went on to emphasize, “In no chance is this use licensed, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar usage … And really, THAT tune?”
This is not the “Its All Coming Back to Me Now” hitmakers very first time revealing a desire not to be associated with the previous 45th president. Back in 2017, she declined his request to perform at his inauguration at the White House.
Aside from Dion, lots of other musicians, such as Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and more, have actually also revealed that they do not wish to be associated with the Republican candidate. John Fogerty, from the late 60s band Creedence Clearwater Revival, composed to Trump after he utilized their song “Fortunate Son.” Via Rolling Stone, he kept in mind, “Mr. Trump is a prime example of both of these problems. The fact that Mr. Trump also fans the flames of hatred, bigotry, and worry while rewriting current history is even more factor to be troubled by his use of my tune.”
The Rolling Stones also expressed their disapproval, according to Deadline later mentioned that the bands team shared, “BMI has actually notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorized usage of their tunes will make up a breach of its licensing arrangement. If Donald Trump continues and ignores the exclusion, then he would face a lawsuit for playing and breaking the embargo music that has actually not been certified.”
It is uncertain what tune Trump will play next at his rally, but he is set to take on the presidential race with J.D. Vance against his Democratic challengers Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
