Donald Trump has called upon the Village People to perform at his second inauguration despite them once asking him to not use their music.

Renowned for their 1978 hit Y.M.C.A., the band will perform alongside Nelly, Carrie Underwood, Kid Rock, Billy Ray Cyrus and Jason Aldean at the US Capitol. The Village People joined Trump on stage hours before his inauguration as they closed his victory rally in Washington D.C.

The Make America Great Again Victory Rally took place on Sunday night as the band performed hit Y.M.C.A. while Trump danced alongside them. Their 1978 disco track has become synonymous with Trump and has been played countless times at his rallies, often accompanied by some fist pumping.

For years, the song was considered to be an anthem for the LGBTQ+ community and the band was founded by two French music producers who were inspired by the scene at a gay club in New York City. Village People frontman Victor Willis, who is the only original member left in the band, previously spoke out against Trump using the track.

The group's manager Karen Willis sent Trump's legal team a cease-and-desist letter after he was filmed dancing to the band’s hit Macho Man at Mar-a-Lago two years ago. However, singer Victor has since changed his tune with the onset of publicity. He explained: "Since 2020, I’ve received over a thousand complaints about President Elect Trump’s use of Y.M.C.A.

"With that many complaints, I decided to ask the President Elect to stop using Y.M.C.A. because his use had become a nuisance to me." He said the reports of "numerous artists" asking Trump not to use their songs made him have a change of heart. Victor explained: “As such, I simply didn’t have the heart to prevent his continued use of my song in the face of so many artists withdrawing his use of their material. So I told my wife...to not withdraw the Trump campaign political use license.”

The Village People issued a statement amid backlash online about them performing at Trump's inauguration. They said: "We are announcing today that VILLAGE PEOPLE have accepted an invitation from President Elect Trump’s campaign to participate in inaugural activities, including at least one event with President Elect Trump. We know this wont make some of you happy to hear however we believe that music is to be performed without regard to politics."

They said Y.M.C.A. is a global anthem that "hopefully helps bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign where our preferred candidate lost." Victor recently admitted Trump can legally play Y.M.C.A. at any of his events since he had previously applied for a political use license.

He added: ”Trump's use of Y.M.C.A. has greatly benefited the song. For example, when Trump started using Y.M.C.A the song shot back up to #2 on Billboard's digital chart." It is not uncommon for musicians to urge Trump not to use their music at his rallies. There's a long list of award-winning performers who have refused to lend Trump their music such as Beyonce, Celine Dion, Isaac Hayes’ Family and Bruce Springsteen.
