Joni Mitchell has made her voice heard in the upcoming US election, responding: “Fuck Donald Trump!” to an audience member who yelled an insult about the Republican presidential candidate.
“I love that song,” Mitchell continued – presumably a reference to the 2016 YG song FDT.
Performing her first headline concert in Los Angeles in 24 years on Saturday, Mitchell, 80, said: “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.”
Mitchell’s comments came after she performed the political title track of her 1985 album Dog Eat Dog for the first time since its year of release. In the song she sings of: “Holy hope in the hands of / Snakebite evangelists and racketeers / And big wig financiers.” After the latter line, she ad libbed “like Donald Trump.”
