TRUMP REJECTED Who is performing at Donald Trump’s inauguration and which musicians refused to appear?

Some famous faces have publicly rejected offers to be part of Trump's big day

DONALD Trump will become the 45th President of the United States today when he is sworn in on the steps of the US Capitol.

But despite being one of the most powerful men in the world, Trump had trouble securing singers for his inauguration.

The billionaire business was left with thin-pickings after a number of high-profile snubs ahead of his big day – follow our live blog for updates on Trump’s inauguration.

Who is performing?

The Radio City Rockettes have agreed to perform for the President at his official inauguration ball, after accepting his invitation last year.

The dance troupe was reportedly split, however, after some of the group said they didn’t want to perform.

The award-winning Mormon Tabernacle Choir are favourites at the inauguration, having previously performed at the past five, and will take their usual place at the swearing-in ceremony.

The choir has 360 members but one member has dropped out after refusing to sing for Trump.

Ex-America’s Got Talent star Jackie Evancho is the most well-known performer to be confirmed in the line-up.

Jackie will play a pivotal role at the ceremony, performing the national anthem after Trump completes his inaugural address.

She was just ten years old when she was on the TV show six years ago.

Commenting after her appearance was confirmed, Trump tweeted: “Jackie Evancho’s album sales have skyrocketed after announcing her Inauguration performance.

“Some people just don’t understand the ‘Movement'”.

As well The Rockettes, the official Liberty and Freedom ball that follows the ceremony will feature performances from Sam Moore, of soul duo Sam and Dave, The Piano Guys and Tim Rushlow and his Big Band – who will accompany Donald and Melania’s inaugural first dance.

The most amusing rejection to sing at the inauguration so far has been by singer Charlotte Church, who made her invite public.

The welsh performer, who has been vocal about her political stance in the past, responded directly to Donald Trump on Twitter.

She wrote: “A simple Internet search would show I think you’re a tyrant.”
