It seems too early to describe. Donald Trump‘S presidential campaign as a “wreck.” But as a singer Celine Dion referring to Saturday, which is exactly what organizers of a rally for the former president just did, using a song that evokes comparisons to one of the most remarkable disasters of modern times. Was it a misstep, a Freudian slip, or an admission that things are not yet went great? That remains unclear, but what is certain is that Dion wants no part in this.
It all happened at Trump’s rally in Bozeman, Montana on Friday—yes, the same rally that took place right before the Republican front-runner’s threat. litigation New York Times for reporting on the near-fatal helicopter ride Trump claims to have taken with the former mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown never happenedAfter Trump made this reportedly angry threat, he headed to a rally at Montana State University’s 8,455-seat Brick Breeden Field House.
According to female Daily MontananTrump has criticized those who gathered at his first rally since winning the Democratic presidential nomination. Kamala Harris elected Governor of Minnesota Tim Walz as her companion in “a lengthy speech that lasted more than an hour and a half.” In that speech, according to PolitiFactHe delivered his usual barrage of misinformation and lies, including false claims about inflation rates during his presidency and lies about Harris’ stance on immigration and border control.
Racism and so is xenophobia have abundant supplywith the former president declaring that after he is elected, expect “a Trump mass deportation, because we have no choice. We have no choice. If Harris wins, there will be a never-ending stream of rapist illegal immigrants.”
But before Trump took the stage, the campaign struck a less confident note. shared on social mediagiant video screen at the event was broadcast Celine Dion performed her iconic 1997 song, “My Heart Will Go On,” known worldwide as the theme song to James Cameron’s epic disaster film, Titanic. Yes, they used the theme song from a movie about arrogance, denial, and high-profile disaster to entertain the protest crowd. You can’t make this stuff up.
When Dion learned her song and image were used on Saturday, she was quick to issue a reprimand.
“Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., discovered the unauthorized use of video, audio recordings, musical performances and images of Celine Dion singing “My Heart Will Go On” at a Donald Trump/ JD Vance campaign in Montana,” the artist wrote in a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter) and other places(We should note here that Vance was not present at the Bozeman rally, nor was his qualities mentioned prominently in the on-stage speeches.)
“In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this use or any similar use,” Dion continued, before ending with the question we’ve all been asking. “…And really, THAT song?”
As of publication, neither Trump nor his campaign have publicly responded to Dion and her criticism, which has been heard around the world, nor have they explained why a song so closely associated with a movie about how rich scoundrels save themselves while letting so-called ordinary people die would make sense at a political rally headlined by a self-proclaimed wealthy man. One can certainly guess. How is Trump reacting to this? but in private.
