Katy Perry is furious as the White House used her 2010 anthem “Firework” in a TikTok video featuring military strikes — a move she says completely contradicts the song’s message of hope and unity. She publicly slammed the use of her music to soundtrack violence, calling it disrespectful to her intent. The clip, which played over footage of bombings with the caption “Iran has been warned,” sparked widespread online backlash, amassing over 1.7 million views. Perry’s recent controversy also includes a teaser for her new single featuring Justin Trudeau, which stirred political debate. Her strong stance highlights the growing tension between artists and institutions using their work without consent — and the deep personal connection creators have to their art.
