Olivia Rodrigo Criticizes ICE for Using Her Song in Deportation Video

Olivia Rodrigo expressed her anger after discovering that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) used her song in a video encouraging illegal immigrants to leave the country. In an interview with Dazed Magazine, Rodrigo described the use of her song 'All-american b----' in the video as 'deeply disturbing' and labeled the agency's actions as 'barbaric.' The video, which was posted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the White House, urged illegal immigrants to self-deport and included footage of ICE agents making arrests. Following the incident, Rodrigo took to Instagram to voice her disapproval, stating, 'Don’t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda.' A DHS spokesperson responded to her criticism, suggesting she should thank law enforcement officers instead. Rodrigo has been vocal about various political issues and believes artists should share their feelings with the public.
