Katy Perry criticized the White House for using her song 'Firework' in a TikTok video showing military strikes on Iran.
Perry stated she did not approve the use and called it a 'complete violation' of the song's message of hope.
The White House TikTok video timed the song's lyrics 'boom, boom, boom' with clips of bomb explosions and captioned 'Iran has been warned'.
Perry's statement emphasized the song was meant as an anthem of inner strength, not for celebrating warfare.
Other artists including Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, and Celine Dion have criticized Trump for using their music without permission.
