Ariana Grande to White House: Don't use my music for 'heinous nonsense'

[Coventina]

WASHINGTON, June 11 (Reuters) - American pop star Ariana Grande told President Donald Trump's administration on ​Thursday to stop using her music to promote its ‌policies.

The comment came after the White House shared a video on TikTok earlier this week highlighting its immigration policy. The video, which depicts federal ​agents arresting and handcuffing people, features the Grammy Award-winning ​singer's 2024 song "Bye."

"Please do not ever use my music ⁠in relation to this barbaric, inhumane, heinous nonsense," Grande ​wrote in a comment posted on the White House video on ​TikTok on Thursday.

A source close to the singer said her team is looking into how to remove the music from the video as soon as possible.
Responding ​to Grande, White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said: "We’ll say this ​one last time: what’s actually barbaric, inhumane, and heinous are the criminal illegal ‌aliens ⁠who have injured and murdered innocent American citizens."
