Heart’s Nancy Wilson Blasts Donald Trump For Playing ‘Barracuda’ Without Permission During D.C. Military Parade
Heart's Nancy Wilson blasted Donald Trump for playing 'Barracuda' without the band's permission during his D.C. military parade over the weekend.
The parading of military hardware through the streets of the nation’s capital is an unusual site in the U.S., though Trump has long mused out loud about wanting to hold such an event. Nancy Wilson has long objected to politicians using her band’s music at their rallies, and earlier this year she said she feels “ embarrassed ” to call herself an American at this time. She noted that “Barracuda” was initially written about a sleazy industry figure at the time, though Wilson twisted it to fit the current commander in chief, saying the song is “even more relevant in the salacious billionaire culture with the grab-them-by-the-(expletive) mentality,” the latter phrase a reference to an infamous sexist comment from Trump.
