Celine Dion Denounces Trump Rally’s Use of Her Hit “My Heart Will Go On”: “Really, THAT Song?”

As a gamer with a vast library of songs and countless hours spent in virtual worlds, I can’t help but feel a sense of solidarity with Celine Dion. Just like how I wouldn’t want some random NPC (Non-Player Character) invading my game and using my hard-earned loot or skills without permission, I can understand her frustration when her iconic song is used without consent.


Celine Dion criticized both Donald Trump and J.D. Vance for playing her hit song “My Heart Will Go On” during their political rally in Montana last Friday.

The management team put out a statement, speaking on behalf of the artist and their recording company, regarding the utilization of the famous “Titanic” track.

Today, it was discovered that someone has been using Celine Dion’s song “My Heart Will Go On” and her performance of it without permission at a political rally for Donald Trump and JD Vance in Montana. This unauthorized usage of her video, recording, musical performance, and likeness was addressed by her official social media account.

The continuation stated, “This usage is absolutely unauthorized, and Celine Dion does not support it or any related activities… And by the way, isn’t that her song?”

Today, it came to light that Celine Dion’s team and her record company, Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc., found out about an unauthorized use of Celine Dion’s video, recording, performance, and image while she sang “My Heart Will Go On” at a Donald Trump/JD Vance campaign event without proper authorization.

During Trump’s presidency, various musicians have criticized his campaign for playing their songs without obtaining proper authorization. Artists such as Rihanna, Axl Rose, The Rolling Stones, and even Neil Young took legal steps to prevent Trump from using their music. In fact, Neil Young went so far as to sue the former president over this issue.

Trump was told off by Prince’s and Sinead O’Connor’s families, as well as Tom Petty’s, for playing their songs “Purple Rain,” “Nothing Compares 2 U,” and “I Won’t Back Down” at his campaign events in 2020 without their permission.

More to come.
