Ariana Grande warns Donald Trump against using her music

Singer Ariana Grande has issued a public warning to U.S. President Donald Trump, demanding that his administration and digital collaborators stop using her music on TikTok. The dispute arose after a “Team Trump” account posted a video featuring her song “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)” alongside text criticizing transgender inclusion in women's sports.

Grande responded to the post on social media, stating, “Never use my music again. Also, your truth is false.” The video was subsequently edited to remove the audio track. This incident follows similar actions by other high-profile artists, including Taylor Swift, who also blocked the use of her music by the Trump administration.

The friction occurs amid ongoing legal and policy debates regarding transgender rights in the United States, including recent Supreme Court rulings concerning sports participation and military service.
