Brendon Urie Drags the Trump Campaign for Playing His Music at Rallies
It's safe to say the pansexual Panic! at the Disco frontman is not a fan of Trump...
Like many of us, Brendon Urie is NOT a fan of Donald Trump.
During a recent campaign event in Arizona, "High Hopes" (a 2018 track from the pansexual singer's band Panic! At the Disco) was playing as Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., walked on stage.
And when Urie heard the news of this, he was having absolutely NONE of it.
\u201cDear Trump Campaign,\n\nFuck you. You\u2019re not invited. Stop playing my song. \n\nNo thanks,\nBrendon Urie, Panic! At The Disco & company.\u201d— Brendon Urie (@Brendon Urie) 1592967568
"Dear Trump Campaign, (expletive) you," the Grammy nominee said, taking to Twitter to let it be known that 45's campaign isn't welcome to play his band's music during their events. "You’re not invited. Stop playing my song. No thanks, Brendon Urie, Panic! At The Disco & company."
After his succinct (and satisfying AF) Twitter drag, Urie followed it up with a message for others about how important it is to vote 45 out of office come November's presidential election.
\u201cDear Everyone Else,\n\nDonald Trump represents nothing we stand for. The highest hope we have is voting this monster out in November. \n\nPlease do your part: https://t.co/JX8GynZduq\u201d— Brendon Urie (@Brendon Urie) 1592967568
"Donald Trump represents nothing we stand for. The highest hope we have is voting this monster out in November. Please do your part," he wrote alongside a link to HeadCount, an organization that "uses the power of music to register voters and promote participation in democracy."
And Panic! At the Disco stans were absolutely here for all of it.
