Today, The Wrap posted an interview with newly-minted Fox News host Tucker Carlson in which he really went in on the American entertainment industry.
“[Hollywood liberals] can’t accept the election results for the same reason their business model is crumbling, and Hollywood won’t exist in its present form in 20 years. Hollywood is going out of business because they don’t understand the country they are selling a product to. They’re completely out of touch because they’re rich and entitled,” he said.
He said that not only are they entitled, but they lack empathy, don’t understand the people in rural areas or the people who voted for Donald Trump, and don’t seem to want to understand them. They vilify the people they try to sell movies and music to, in his opinion, then wonder why no one is buying movies and music. He described Hollywood as a “mass market retail business,” then compared the entertainment industry to a different one: “If you hated dogs and didn’t care what they liked, your dog food would probably fail.”
Also, he said said:
Who watches movies? Who would? Not me. I wouldn’t cross the street to watch a movie for free.

I think Nugent and Garth Brooks are the only ones confirmed so far. Heard Aretha Franklin is in talks, but she's 50/50. Wouldn't be surprised if the Beach Boys accepted because they do look like they're pro-Trump.Man that 1st Obama inauguration was the ? .....I walked like 4 miles and wasn't even tripping....traffic and metro were all ? up but it was worth....getting to boo Bush one last time was great too

Afraid of media circus, musicians are steering clear of president's swearing in, according to music managers
Weeks before Donald Trump's presidential inauguration, the subject of securing performances has been contentious. Last night, the president-elect weighed in on the debacle (on Twitter, naturally), saying in his inimitable way that he didn't need "so-called 'A' list celebrities." "I want the PEOPLE!" he tweeted. But according to top music managers, Trump's team has been hustling to secure a high calibre of talent and star-power for the event nonetheless.
"We've gotten calls that almost sound a little bit desperate: 'Does anybody want to perform?'" says Ken Levitan, a top music manager who represents liberal and conservative artists including Kings of Leon, Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd and Emmylou Harris. "At this point, we haven't had anybody that has any desire to perform at the inauguration.
"Even if you're a Trump supporter, you've got to look at how he plays the media [and] the public, in terms of how he attacks and twists things around. I've got to think there's a fear of talking about things and working with him," Levitan continues. "I do know some of the very conservative [artists] have no desire to do it. ... [They] just don't want to be involved in the circus — it's a media circus, and not necessarily in a good way."
Elton John, Garth Brooks and Celine Dion have reportedly turned down offers. Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli was allegedly turned down by Trump, according to inaugural committee chairman Thomas J. Barrack, Jr. And most recently, The Beach Boys, who've performed at events for Presidents Reagan, Clinton and George H.W. Bush, have said they're considering an invitation to perform at an inauguration event, according to a representative for the band. So far, the confirmed inauguration performers include the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Radio City Rockettes and 16-year-old singer Jackie Evancho.
"They want to be cool and they want to be hip, but the problem is, they're not, and no one's going to go along with the charade," says Simon Renshaw, a Trump opponent who manages the liberal Dixie Chicks. "And the stuff they could get, they're looking at it and going, 'We're going to have Ted Nugent and Kid Rock — oh my ? , that doesn't look like an inauguration, that's going to look like a bar-room redneck brawl.'"
Nugent and Rock, both of whom supported Trump during the election campaign, are rumored performers at the inauguration, but Rock's manager wouldn't comment and Nugent reps did not respond to calls and e-mails. Other Trump-friendly artists, including Kiss' Gene Simmons and country legend Loretta Lynn, also did not respond. Lee Greenwood, who has sung his signature hit "? Bless the USA" on stage with five presidents, changed the subject in a brief phone call: "The information that you requested about me being at Trump's inauguration is not confirmed yet," he said. "I'm sure we'll know shortly."
Some smaller artists have half-jokingly suggested they'd perform for the right price. Matt Healy, singer for rock band The 1975, told the BBC: "I'll do it if they give me cash up front. ... What do I want? Well, he's got gold seatbelts in his plane—so at least a million quid." Others have tried to draw invitations in exchange for political statements. In a statement to Rolling Stone, former Sam and Dave singer Sam Moore, who appeared at an Obama ball in 2009, said he would perform in exchange for explaining to Trump that artists need more fair radio royalty rates. "If I could get him to listen to me, it would be worth all the hell I might be subject to for agreeing to performing," Moore said.
Numerous top music-business sources denied reports that Trump's administration was offering ambassadorships to potential inauguration performers or their representatives.
The president-elect's inauguration reps did not respond to requests for comment, although Charles Koppelman, a veteran record exec who is co-managing Prince's music, defended the incoming administration. "I would not think it would be difficult at all to get performers," says the Trump supporter. "When the president asks, you usually show up."
"At the end of the day, almost 50 percent of the country voted for the guy. I have artists who were pro-Trump — none of them have been called," says Allen Kovac, manager of Motley Crue, whose singer Vince Neil was "uninvited" to perform. "Musicians tend to be more liberal than the rest of the public — if you're black, or a woman, or Hispanic, you may have a point of view that makes you feel uncomfortable [after] a very contentious race for president." -

http://www.mediaite.com/online/bristol-palin-takes-on-the-hollywood-sissies-who-refused-to-perform-at-trumps-inauguration/Bristol Palin Takes on the Hollywood ‘Sissies’ Who Refused to Perform at Trump’s Inauguration
Bristol Palin — yes, that Bristol Palin — took to her personal blog this week to criticize the A-Listers who have repeatedly turned down the opportunity to perform at President-elect Donald Trump‘s inauguration next month.
The daughter of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin wrote, “these same mega-celebrities, who would normally drool over an invitation to sing for the president, want no part of it.”
And despite claims from the Trump transition team that they are having no problem trying to find big name stars to perform at the January 20th event, Palin admits at one point, “Trump’s inauguration team sought out some of the world’s greatest musicians, but nearly all of them have refused for fear of backlash or to stand against him politically.”
Trump’s inauguration is currently slated to feature 16-year-old Jackie Evancho singing the national anthem, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, as well at the world-famous Rockettes — though several of the dancers of the Radio City ensemble have spoken out against being forced to perform, with one anonymously writing, “The majority of us said no immediately.”
Bristol Palin continued Wednesday, writing, “Isn’t it amazing how “not cool” it is to be conservative in the public eye? Either Hollywood is that far off – or we have so many sissies we have in the spot light too scared to stand for what they believe in!”
On her list of “sissies” is Elton John, Celine Dion, and Andrea Bocelli, who Palin asserted this totally bonkers claim about with zero evidence to back it up: “Sources say Trump encouraged [Bocelli] to back out so he wouldn’t lose fans.”

By time the inauguration comes, he going to have Joker The Bail Bondsman performing at it smdh

http://www.mediaite.com/online/mormon-tabernacle-singer-quits-before-inauguration-performance-i-cant-throw-roses-to-? /Mormon Tabernacle Singer Quits Before Inauguration Performance: I Can’t ‘Throw Roses to ? ’
The incoming administration of Donald Trump may be thrilled to have the Mormon Tabernacle Choir performing next month at the presidential inauguration, but that ensemble of singers just got one person smaller.
Jan Chamberlin, a longtime singer in the choir, has resigned altogether instead of showing up to perform at the January 20th inauguration in Washington. In her resignation letter to the the choir president and other choir members, Chamberlin wrote, “Since ‘the announcement,’ I have spent several sleepless nights and days in turmoil and agony. I have reflected carefully on both sides of the issue, prayed a lot, talked with family and friends, and searched my soul.”
Her letter continues, “I’ve tried to tell myself that by not going to the inauguration, that I would be able to stay in choir for all the other good reasons. I’ve tried to tell myself that it will be all right and that I can continue in good conscience before ? and man.”
However, Chamberlin could not go through with the performance.
She later wrote “I could never look myself in the mirror again with self-respect,” if she went through with the event just weeks away, continuing, “I only know I could never ‘throw roses to ? .’ And I certainly could never sing for him.”
Eric Hawkins, a church spokesman, clarified in a follow-up statement, “Participation in the choir, including the performance at the Inauguration, is voluntary. Only a limited number of choir members are participating (the number is limited by the inaugural committee), and none are required to participate.” About 215 of the 350 person choir are expected to make the trip to DC for the inauguration next month.
Chamberlin continued her sentiments on her Facebook page, writing:
History is repeating itself; the same tactics are being used by ? (identify a problem, finding a scapegoat target to blame, and stirring up people with a combination of fanaticism, false promises, and fear, and gathering the funding). I plead with everyone to go back and read the books we all know on these topics and review the films produced to help us learn from these gargantuan crimes so that we will not allow them to be repeated. Evil people prosper when good people stand by and do nothing.
She wrote it is a “HUGELY moral issue.”
Damn.. When those racist ass Mormons won't ? with you..

I strongly believe in the political process. In fact, this past election should prove that the process actually works. Trump wasn't even an underdog. He was a joke before the election season. If the powers that be wanted someone in office, it would've been bush or Clinton, right??
What people don't get is how certain ? don't vote or participate in the political process, then complain about how ? is politics as usual. ? protest with signs and ? . Racist White people protested by voting and donating to people that supported their cause. Who won?? -
Gene Simmons, outspoken ? ? and frontman of terrible band KISS, is mad about it.
"I think celebrities should basically shut their pie hole and do what they do best: act, sing, tap dance, juggle ? , and do all that kind of stuff. And then do what an informed citizen does: draw the curtain, vote your conscience, go in there and vote."
When TMZ asked if he would then be performing at the inauguration, his wife and daughter cut him off to yell NOOO. Basically it sounds like he wants to but wife and daughter won't let him LOL

Transgender icon Caitlyn Jenner accepted an invitation to attend President-elect
Donald Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20, Us Weekly reported, citing a source.
The reality star is a staunch Republican who spoke out against Hillary Clinton
in the months leading up to the election on her show "I Am Cait."
Jenner, 66, initially offered to become a "trans ambassador" for Trump's
opponent Ted Cruz during the race for the American seat of power, but she
also praised Trump multiple times in the months leading up to the election.
"He seems very much behind the LGBT community because of what happened
in North Carolina with the bathroom issue. He backed the LGBT community,"
she told STAT in June.
Shortly after a discriminatory bathroom law passed in North Carolina that ruled
transgender citizens had to use the bathrooms assigned to their birth genders,
Trump invited Jenner to use whichever bathroom she wanted in any of his
buildings.
She took him up on the offer in April.
Jenner also opined Trump "would be very good for women's issues" on her E!
Network reality series.
