(These articles regard Copyright Violation) By Sebastian Murdock, HuffPost | Katy Perry said she is “appalled and angry” after the White House used her 2010 song “Firework” in a TikTok about military strikes. “I am deeply appalled and angry to see ‘Firework’ used on the @WhiteHouse TikTok account as a backing track for video footage of military strikes,” Perry posted on X Saturday. “I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it.”
“I wrote this song to be an anthem of hope, healing, and inner strength for people going through their darkest personal moments,” the post continued. “To see a message of self-worth and upliftment weaponized to soundtrack destruction and violence is a complete violation of everything my song stands for. My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare.”
