Melania Trump, the groupie? 4 pop stars the former first lady stans, from Aerosmith and Elton John to Miley Cyrus and Sia – but they aren’t all fans of Donald and family
- Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler played piano for Melania while John performed at her wedding – but the Rocket Man singer didn’t invite the Trumps to his nuptials
- Miley Cyrus shaded the Trump family, slamming Dolce & Gabbana for dressing Melania in the White House, and Sia turned down a photo op with Donald and Ivanka
A look back at Melania Trump’s social media posts before she became first lady of the United States reveals what artists help her get pumped up for a workout, her carpool karaoke songs of choice and backstage snaps with her music idols.
But due to her alignment with conservative politics, many liberal stars have made it clear that they aren’t fans of Melania and her family. Still, it appears Melania hasn’t let that bother her.
Here are 4 pop and rock icons Melania stans – and how they feel about the Trumps.
1. Steven Tyler
Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and Melania go way back. In January 2014, Melania shared a picture of the star playing the piano in what appeared to be her home. Tyler was seen tinkling the ivories at a white grand piano next to a gold framed mirror. “Look who came to play for me,” Melania bragged in a caption, using the hashtag “amazing”.
Tyler appears to regularly hang out with the Trumps as he also posed for a photograph with Donald in front of a wall covered in images of himself.
In September 2014, Melania and Donald were pictured meeting the rocker at the Prudential Centre in Newark, New Jersey. Some social media users even suggested the then-future first lady of the United States and megastar musician look alike.
Melania also once shared a picture of Tyler on stage and captioned it “fabulous”.
However, the Trumps got in trouble when Donald used Aerosmith songs to support his political rallies – something that was never approved by the band.
