Ariana Grande criticizes White House for using her song in a Trump immigration video, calling it “cruel” and demanding it be removed.


American singer Ariana Grande has asked the White House to stop using her music after it appeared in a political video linked to immigration enforcement under Donald Trump.

The video, posted on TikTok, showed border police arresting migrants while Grande’s song “Bye” played in the background. It also included the caption: “Bye-bye… President Trump made the borders the most secure in history.”

Responding publicly, Grande said: “Do not use my music in association with cruelty, inhumanity, and hateful messaging.”

White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson defended the video, describing it as focused on illegal immigration and crimes committed against Americans.

Following the backlash, the video’s audio was removed and Grande’s comment was deleted. The incident adds her to a growing list of artists requesting their music not be used in Trump-related political content.
