Foo Fighters Denounce Trump's Use of My Hero
News summary

The Foo Fighters have publicly condemned Donald Trump for using their song "My Hero" without authorization at a recent rally in Arizona, where Trump welcomed Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who had just endorsed him after suspending his presidential campaign. The band emphasized that they were not consulted about the song's use and would have denied permission if asked, stating, "Foo Fighters were not asked permission, and if they were, they would not have granted it." They pledged to donate any royalties gained from this incident to the campaigns of Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz. This incident is part of a broader pattern of unauthorized music use by Trump, which has drawn ire from various artists, including Beyoncé and Johnny Marr. Trump's campaign spokesperson responded by claiming they had a license to use the song, despite the Foo Fighters' clear denial. The Kennedy family's reaction was notably negative, calling the endorsement a "betrayal" of their values.
