11 stars who refused to speak at Trump's inauguration
The team of President-elect Donald Trump hoped that a number of world stars would take part in his inauguration, who gladly took part in events organized by Trump-businessman, but Trump's president’s oath was less interesting for them because of the billionaire.
About it in the blog on Patheos wrote the daughter of a famous American politician from the Republican party Sarah Palin Bristol.
But it doesn’t seem to bother Trump much, who pretends that did not invite many of the world stars.
We offer a list of 11 stars who refused to speak at the inauguration of 45 US President.
1. Elton John
The famous British singer said that he did not want his music to have “any relation to the American election campaign.” However, he said that he has nothing against Donald Trump personally.
“I met Donald Trump once, he was very friendly. There is nothing personal in this, he has his own political views, mine are completely different, I am very far from the ideas of the Republicans,” the singer said.
2. Celine Dion
This French-Canadian star has performed repeatedly in Las Vegas at the casino of Trump friend Steve Wynn, who promised her presence at the inauguration ceremony, but Dion has no plans to travel to Washington on that day - she is busy preparing a concert at Caesar's Palace.
3. Andrea Bocelli
The famous Italian tenor initially agreed to speak at the inauguration ceremony of 20 in January, but then changed his mind. Trump is a fan of Bocelli and invited him to perform at the inauguration after visiting one of the concerts. Having agreed, the singer began to receive negative feedback from his other fans and decided to abandon the performance.
4. The Chainsmokers
This duo DJ also refused to speak in Washington.
5. Garth brooks
The famous country singer refused to perform at Trump's inauguration, although in 2016 he and his wife, performer Trisha Yearwood, sang at the Christmas tree lighting ceremony for the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama.
6-9. Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars, Katy Perry, Aretha Franklin
These four superstars were even offered ambassadorial posts and large fees to lure them to the inauguration, but even this did not help. At the moment, the Trump team denies that these performers were offered diplomatic posts.
10. David foster
There were rumors that the legendary pianist would organize the inaugural concert, but he said that he “politely declined” the offer, and the rumors were completely unfounded.
11. KISS
The group’s refusal was quite unexpected, as its frontman repeatedly stated that the stars “whine” too much because of Trump's victory, and they do it, in his opinion, in vain.
However, the group decided not to speak at the inauguration, citing a tour of Europe.
