No Songs Sung Blue

The long running saga of who is refusing to sing for Donald Trump at his inauguration is continuing and today Charlotte Church has told the serial groper to go do one as she turned down his invitation to perform.   
Charlotte had been approached by members of the President-elect's team but replied that: 'Your staff have asked me to sing at your inauguration, a simple internet search would show I think you're a tyrant'.
That would be a no then and fast on the heels of X Factor runner-up Rebecca Ferguson who gave him equally short thrift although she did say she would give it a go if she could sing an anti-racism song which obviously went down like a Trump haircut at a hairdressers convention.
DJ Moby also revealed he had been asked to perform and answered and answered with: 'Hahahahaha, wait, Hahahaha, really? I guess I'd DJ at an inaugural ball if as payment Trump released his tax returns' although he was kind enough to suggest a set list which included Rage Against the Machine’s 'Killing in the Name', Radiohead’s 'Idioteque', Billie Holiday’s 'Strange Fruit' and Green Days 'American Idiot'.
I don't expect Meryl Streep to turn up either so as it stands, half of the Rockettes dance group, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir under threat of expulsion if they don't turn up and a 16-year-old 'America's Got Talent' singer are all confirmed to play at Trump's inauguration in 10 days time.
