The unapproved use of Celine Dion’s song My Heart Will Go On at a Trump event was denounced by her team, who also hinted at potential legal repercussions.
It was obvious Celine Dion was unimpressed with the former president’s music selection. When the famed singer learned that her song, My Heart Will Go On, from the Titanic soundtrack, had been played at a recent Donald Trump rally without her consent, she didn’t hold back. She ridiculed the selection, casting doubt on the ballad’s appropriateness for the occasion and denouncing the unauthorized use of her song with a caustic jab.
Celine Dion blasts Trump for ‘unauthorized’ song usage
Internet users took offense at former president Donald Trump’s Montana rally on Friday. They couldn’t understand why he had chosen the song My Heart Will Go On out of all the possibilities, and if he had, they wondered. Just as Trump stepped onto the podium, the Titanic hymn blasted from the speakers. A few hours later, Dion’s management team scuttled the plan on Saturday by denouncing the unauthorized use of her song for his political campaign on X (previously Twitter).
The statement implies that Dion does not support the entire agenda, saying, “Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing ‘My Heart Will Go On’ at a Donald Trump / JD Vance campaign rally in Montana.”
Variety claims that Trump’s choice to play Dion’s performance of the well-known “Titanic” song during Friday’s rally may have legal repercussions for both the Republican nominee and his running mate.
Celine Dion mocks Trump’s titanic tune choice
The musician, who has been struggling with stiff-person syndrome since 2022, didn’t hesitate to criticize the former President of the United States for his amazing song choice. Her criticism was in keeping with internet discussions, where some users are jokingly persuaded that a Kamala Harris fan is actually secretly manipulating the Republican candidate.
“This use is not approved in any anyway, and Celine Dion does not support this or any usage that is comparable.And that tune, really? Dion’s group concluded the statement.
One of the few songs played during the Montana protest, according to rally participants, was the well-known hymn My Heart Will Go On. Among other songs, the playlist included “Without You” by Harry Nilsson, “Mercy, Mercy Me” by Marvin Gaye, “I Will Always Love You” by Dolly Parton, and other Elvis Presley songs.
A social media user said, “Perfect – because when your campaign’s headed for an iceberg, you might as well set it to music.” Another person remarks, “It’s ideal for the Tumptanic.” There is more to the 1997 Academy Award–winning movie about the 1912 catastrophe than merely the tale of a huge ship colliding with an iceberg. It’s a story about love, grief, and overcoming adversity.
