Iconic singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell's fans went wild after she put former President Donald Trump on blast during a concert at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday—and reminded her fans how important it is for them to vote.

After performing “Dog Eat Dog,” a song about the powerful who “lie, cheat, skim, scam,” Mitchell added a pointed remark following the line about “big-wig financiers,” saying, “Like Donald Trump.” Once the song ended, she delved further, sharing her thoughts on the Republican presidential candidate.


She said:

"F**k Donald Trump. Everybody get out and vote. This is an important one. I wish I could vote – I’m Canadian. I’m one of those lousy immigrants."

As the crowd cheered, she laughed and added:

"I just made about 17,000 people vote so I'd say you did you part."

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Many praised Mitchell's remarks.

Mitchell's comments came during her first performance in Los Angeles in 28 years, performing hit songs that she'd not sung publicly in decades.

The singer, who is spearheading an archival reissue project of remastered and unreleased material, is the second prominent musician to criticize Trump over the last few days.

Musician Rufus Wainwright criticized Trump for playing his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" at a recent MAGA rally in Pennsylvania, saying in a statement that he was "mortified" and telling MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle that Trump's use of it was "blasphemous."

Wainwright, who like countless others was disturbed by the over 30 minutes of Trump swaying on stage, occasionally breaking into his signature two-handed dance, as songs like his cover of "Hallelujah" played in the background, described Trump as a "broken man" who "needs help and is expressing some kind of yearning for redemption."

While stressing the importance of keeping Trump out of office, said if the moment "turns out to be one of the craziest moments where people can really look at Trump and see how insane he is and it helps bring him down, I would be really happy to be a part of that."

Teacher Blames 'No Child Left Behind' For Current Education Crisis In Mic Drop TikTok Rant

No Child Left Behind was signed in 2002 under the Bush Administration, and many teachers voiced their concerns about how this would impact education, not just for students who were pushed to the next grade level before they were ready, but for their surrounding teachers and peers.

These teachers' concerns were widely dismissed, with many people going so far as to scorn teachers and to accuse them of not wanting to work hard and teach their students. This set the initial tone of too much responsibility being placed on teachers under NCLB.

Robin Williams' Daughter Rips Trolls For Posting AI Videos Of Her Late Dad: 'Leave Him Out Of Your Delusional Bullsh*t'

With an increase in AI-generated content, it's becoming increasingly difficult to tell what is real and what is fake.

But one feature of this shift that's particularly insensitive is the number of deepfake videos that are appearing of late celebrities, often presented as private content that's been leaked, or fake footage that teases the idea of the cause of their death being more nefarious than the tragedy it already was.

Resurfaced Photo Of Erika Kirk's MAGA Sneakers Has Everyone Doing A Double-Take

A year after Charlie Kirk's assassination, Erika Kirk has become one of the more recognizable faces in conservative politics. But apparently, her growing political profile isn't the only thing turning heads—her footwear is getting some attention of its own.

And it's been quite a year for Kirk. Between the ongoing criminal case against her husband's accused killer and a shooting near April's White House Correspondents' Dinner, the Turning Point USA CEO has rarely been out of the headlines.

Trump Dragged After Offering Mind-Numbing Name Change For AI—And It's Peak Trump

In August 1955, computer and cognitive scientist John McCarthy of Dartmouth College and mathematician Marvin Minsky of Harvard University joined industry members Nathaniel Rochester of IBM and Claude Shannon of Bell Telephone Laboratories to submit a proposal for the 1956 Dartmouth Summer Research Project on the subject of "artificial intelligence."

Their workshop took place in July and August 1956 and is widely recognized as the official birth of AI as an academic, technical, and scientific discipline. The terms "artificial intelligence" and the acronym "AI," which have gained international recognition and usage since then, were attributed to McCarthy, who chose the phrase to distinguish it as a new field separate from the work of cybernetics pioneer Norbert Wiener.
