Pop star Ariana Grande has publicly denounced the White House’s use of her song “Bye” in a social media video. The video highlighted recent immigration arrests, a context Grande strongly opposes. She issued a statement criticizing the administration’s policies as “barbaric, inhumane, and heinous nonsense.” Grande explicitly demanded that her music not be used to promote these actions or be associated with the administration’s agenda. The singer’s criticism underscores a growing trend of artists objecting to their work being used for political purposes without consent. This incident raises questions about the ethical considerations of utilizing copyrighted material in political messaging. Vanguard News initially reported the story.
