Celine Dion’s team says use of ‘My Heart Will Go On’ at Trump rally was ‘unauthorized’

Céline Dion’s management team and record label, Sony Music Canada, said the use of her world-renowned hit “My Heart Will Go On” at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Montana on Friday was “unauthorized.”

A video of Dion performing the 1997 song was broadcast at the Trump and JD Vance rally in Bozeman, Montana, on Friday evening. In a statement on X, the Canadian musician’s team said Saturday they became aware of the Republican campaign’s use of the “video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion” singing the song.

“In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use,” the statement read. “…And really, THAT song?”

The power ballad was the theme song to the hit 1997 film “Titanic,” a love story set against the backdrop of the Titanic’s sinking.

Dion isn’t the first artist to reject the Trump campaign’s use of their music.

After Trump’s campaign used “Start Me Up” at a rally in 2016, The Rolling Stones released a statement saying they never gave permission to do so and requested that it “cease all use immediately.”

Rihanna did the same in 2018 after “Don’t Stop the Music” was played at another rally.

“Me nor my people would ever be at or around one of those tragic rallies,” the musician said at the time.

The list goes on, with Neil Young, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, Everlast (the former House of Pain frontman) and British singer Adele also criticizing Trump for using their tunes in rallies over the years.
