Celine Dion has publicly condemned former President Donald Trump’s campaign for the unauthorised use of her iconic hit song “My Heart Will Go On” at his rallies.
Dion’s management team and record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., issued a statement on Saturday, expressing their disapproval after learning that the song had been played during a Trump rally in Bozeman, Montana.
The statement, shared on Dion’s social media platforms, highlighted the unauthorised nature of the usage and made it clear that Dion does not support such actions.
“Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., became aware of the unauthorised 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,” the statement read. It further emphasised that Dion does not endorse the campaign or the use of her music in this context.
In a lighter tone, Dion’s statement also poked fun at the choice of the song, questioning, “And really, THAT song?”
‘My Heart Will Go On’, originally released in 1997 as the theme song for the blockbuster film ‘Titanic’, remains one of the best-selling singles of all time.
The Trump campaign’s use of popular music without permission has been a recurring issue, drawing criticism from various artistes.
Musicians and bands such as Rihanna, the Rolling Stones, Queen, Ozzy Osbourne, and the estate of George Harrison have previously objected to their songs being used at Trump’s campaign events, dating back to his initial run for president in 2016.
Dion, who recently returned to the stage for the first time since revealing her battle with stiff person syndrome—a rare neurological disorder—continues to make headlines for both her performances and her stance on public issues like this.
The Trump campaign has yet to respond to Dion’s statement or confirm whether they will cease using her music at future events.
