President-elect Donald Trump has for decades hobnobbed with famous celebrities, however, he has not been able to attract a wealth of star power to his Inauguration Ceremony. A group of Broadway stars have joined forces to counter Donald Trump's inauguration with a charity show in New York City. Also, a handful of Hollywood stars took a stand against the president-elect by participating in a video singing Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive".
Broadway singer Jennifer Holliday pulled out of her planned appearance at Donald Trump's inauguration, after coming under fire from the LGBT community. She even apologized for her decision to perform, calling it a "lapse of judgment''. On the same day, Italian Opera singer Andrea Bocelli also backed out of singing at the ceremony, reportedly because his fans said they would boycott his concerts and records. And that's not it. A group of Broadway stars have joined forces to counter Donald Trump's inauguration with a benefit concert in New York City.
So who is performing at Donald Trump's inauguration? The list includes country singer Toby Keith, Former "America's Got Talent'' contestant Jackie Evancho, "The Mormon Tabernacle Choir'' as well as the famous dance troupe, the Radio City Rockettes. On the other hand, Hollywood stars including Emma Stone, Natalie Portman, and Matthew McConaughey have taken a stand against the president-elect by participating in a video singing Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive".
=="I Will Survive" Lyrics==
Go on now, go. Walk out the door. Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore.
It is estimated that roughly 900,000 people will participate in this year's inauguration. However back in 2008, nearly 2 million people attended the country's first African-American leader, Barack Obama's inauguration ceremony. This year, significantly less Hollywood stars will show up as it did for Obama, whose inaugurals attracted stars such as Beyonce, Oprah Winfrey, Usher and many more A-listers. Donald Trump claims that he doesn't want celebrities at his inauguration, tweeting that he wants "the people'' to attend the event instead.

百老匯明星珍妮佛哈勒黛,原本是川普就職典禮敲定演出,為數不多的黑人大咖佳賓,但遭到跨性別粉絲團體強烈抗議,隔天就宣布退出,還為自己的無知錯誤判斷道歉。同一天,盲人男高音波伽利也因為歌迷反彈,宣布退出。不僅如此,多位百老匯資深大牌明星都決定,在一月二十號總統就職典禮當晚,出席紐約市的慈善演唱會,為人權組織募款。
目前就職大典上的演出名單,包括鄉村歌曲天王托比基,古典跨界歌手小賈姬,摩門大教堂合唱團,紐約無線電城的火箭女郎康康舞團等等,相較於川普高調的個性,顯得有點陽春。好萊塢眾多的自由派明星,自然不會是川普座上賓,包括愛瑪史東,娜塔莉波曼,馬修麥康納等大明星,還合錄一段七零年代經典老歌我會活下去,表達對川普時代很感冒。
==「我會活下去歌詞」==
走吧 現在就走
走出大門
現在就轉身去吧
因為我已不再歡迎你
走吧 現在就走
走出大門
現在就轉身去吧
因為你已不再受歡迎
川普就職大典正在彩排,當天預計將有90萬人參加觀禮,但八年前美國第一位黑人總統歐巴馬的就職,現場湧入近兩百萬人,盛況空前,獻唱國歌的是天后碧昂絲,還有一長串A咖演出嘉賓。而川普堅稱他就是要這樣,強調人民才是就職大典的主角。
