Olivia Rodrigo is slamming President Trump’s administration for using one of her songs in a Department of Homeland Security video promoting stricter deportation efforts.
The singer took to the comments section of posts by both the Department of Homeland Security and the White House after they used her track “all american bitch” to score a video telling immigrants to “self-deport” or “face the consequences.”
“Don’t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda,” Rodrigo fired back.
This isn’t the first time she’s spoken out about the administration’s immigration policies. Back in June, Rodrigo shared her anger over the “violent deportations” happening in Los Angeles on her Instagram Stories.
“I’ve lived in LA my whole life and I’m deeply upset about these violent deportations of my neighbors under the current administration,” she wrote. “LA simply wouldn’t exist without immigrants. Treating hardworking community members with such little respect, empathy, and due process is awful. I stand with the beautiful, diverse community of Los Angeles and with immigrants all across America.”
She also shared a photo from one of the “No Kings” protests held in LA.
The Trump administration has faced repeated backlash from musicians for using their work without permission. Recently, Kenny Loggins called out Trump for using his hit “Danger Zone” in an AI-generated video depicting the president dropping poop on protestors.
“I request that my recording on this video be removed immediately,” Loggins wrote on Instagram. “I can’t imagine why anybody would want their music used or associated with something created with the sole purpose of dividing us. Too many people are trying to tear us apart, and we need to find new ways to come together.”
