Adele Addresses Use of Her Music by Donald Trump’s Campaign

*Sarah Palin took the stage at a Donald Trump rally in Oklahoma to Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep,” which was bad enough for her fans. But when the Donald, himself, began using Adele’s “Skyfall” at rallies, her faithful took to Twitter.

The Republican presidential candidate, an Adele fan who attended her New York concert last year, has reportedly been playing the James Bond “Skyfall” theme, which has the line (“when it crumbles, we will stand tall, face it all together”).

Fans tweeted their outrage, urging the British singer to ban Palin and Trump from using her music.

Her response?

“Adele has not given permission for her music to be used for any political campaigning,” Adele’s spokesperson told the Independent.

Adele is not the only artist to ask Trump’s campaign not to use their music. After Trump blasted “Dream On” at one of his rallies, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler’s lawyers sent the mogul cease-and-desist letters saying he did “not have our client’s permission” to use the song.

REM lead singer Michael Stipe also released a statement after one of his band’s songs was used at a Trump rally without their permission. The statement included: “Go f**k yourselves, the lot of you — you sad, attention-grabbing, power-hungry little men. Do not use our music or my voice for your moronic charade of a campaign.”
