Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration this time will see some big names performing. Some of the mainstream entertainers including Carrie Underwoodwinzir, Nelly, The Village People will set the stage on January 20.

This is a contrast when eight years ago, Trump had difficulty recruiting big-name stars for his inauguration, especially when compared to Barack Obama's second swearing-in, which featured performances by Beyoncé, James Taylor, and Kelly Clarkson, among others. At the time, many major entertainers rallied around protest marches rather than the event itself.

Stars Supporting Trump

Trump has had a core group of celebrity supporters over the years, including Kid Rock, Hulk Hogan, Jon Voight, Roseanne Barr, Mike Tyson, Sylvester Stallone, and Dennis Rodman. But this time, with a more decisive victory, the roster of names supporting him has expanded. Performers at Trump’s inauguration weekend include Kid Rock, Billy Ray Cyrus, The Village People, Lee Greenwood, Nelly, Rascal Flatts, Jason Aldean, and Gavin DeGraw.

“The number of celebrities publicly supporting Trump has grown, though they still represent a small portion of the celebrity world,” says Robert Thompson, a pop culture professor at Syracuse University. “We’re seeing fewer sharp divides than we did before.” Even some celebrities who previously criticized Trump have had a change of heart. One notable example is rapper Snoop Dogg, who in 2017 released a music video in which he simulated shooting a Trump look-alike. This weekend, however, he performed at The Crypto Ball during inauguration festivities, sparking surprise and outrage on social media.

There is still some stigma attached to publicly supporting Trump, as seen in The Village People’s statement justifying their involvement. Thompson notes that participating in a high-profile national event may transcend political affiliation, suggesting that artists like Underwood,fhm63 while unlikely to sway opinions about Trump, might alter how fans view them. Some social media users even vowed to delete Underwood’s music from their playlists.

While Trump has long criticized the liberal dominance of Hollywood, he now seems intent on bringing the entertainment industry into his fold. He has named Stallone, Voight, and Mel Gibson as his “ambassadors” for this mission. Thompson jokes that it sounds like something straight out of an "Onion" headline or a “Saturday Night Live” sketch — or even a plotline for the next "Expendables" movie.

Celebrity opposition to Trump has quieted compared to 2017, when stars like Cher, Madonna, Katy Perry, Alicia Keys, and Janelle Monae took part in protest marches. The Golden Globe Awards in early January didn’t mention Trump at all, a stark contrast to Meryl Streep’s speech in 2017 condemning him. “None of the celebrity rhetoric against Trump seemed to make a difference,” Thompson says, adding that it may have even backfired, pushing things further in the opposite direction.

In Washington, DC, Friday night saw the nonpartisan Creative Coalition hosting an event to support military service members and their families. Comedian Jeff Ross, a strong advocate for free speech, remarked on the importance of nonpartisan gatherings. While focused on the event, some entertainers expressed concern about potential funding cuts to the National Endowment for the Arts under the incoming administration. Actor Steven Weber warned that the NEA’s future could be at risk, stressing the importance of arts funding in education and culture.

In contrast, Monday night will feature a celebrity-driven fundraiser, the Concert for America, streamed from New York and Los Angeles. Participants include Jon Cryer, Lisa Joyner, Conan O'Brien, Julie Bowen, Adam Scott, Wayne Brady, and Rosie Perez. Rather than a protest, the concert will raise money for wildfire relief and highlight organizations advocating for human rights.

Producers Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley Jackson founded the event in 2017 to support nonprofits they believed would be under threat during Trump’s presidency. Jackson noted that they had little trouble finding entertainers to participatewinzir, with those who declined citing scheduling conflicts. “It’s not about counteracting Trump’s inauguration,” Rudetsky said. “It’s about providing hope, unity, and a call to action in a time of division.”
