Pop singer Katy Perry has publicly expressed her disapproval after the White House used her song “Firework” in a video showcasing military strikes. Perry stated she is deeply disturbed by the use of her music to promote warfare.
The singer took to X, formerly known as Twitter, on Saturday to voice her concerns. She explicitly stated her opposition to the White House’s decision, writing, “I am deeply appalled.”
Perry explained the core reason for her dismay: “My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare,” she posted. The video in question appears to have been intended to highlight military achievements, but Perry believes its use of her song fundamentally misrepresents her artistic intentions and message.
The Hollywood Reporter reported on Perry’s statement, highlighting the singer's direct condemnation of the White House's choice to incorporate “Firework” into footage depicting military action. No further details regarding the specific video or the White House’s response were provided in the report.
