Sinéad O’Connor’s estate is demanding that former President Donald Trump stops playing the late singer’s music during his political rallies.
“Throughout her life, it is well known that Sinéad O’Connor lived by a fierce moral code defined by honesty, kindness, fairness and decency towards her fellow human beings,” the late singer’s estate and Chrysalis Records said in a joint statement to the Associated Press. “It was with outrage therefore that we learned that Donald Trump has been using her iconic performance of ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ at his political rallies.
“It is no exaggeration to say that Sinéad would have been disgusted, hurt and insulted to have her work misrepresented in this way by someone whom she herself referred to as a ‘biblical devil,’” the statement continued. “As the guardians of her legacy, we demand that Donald Trump and his associates desist from using her music immediately.”
