The inauguration of Donald Trump and the ceremonial transfer of presidential powers are planned for early next year. Anthony Scaramucci, vice-chairman of the presidential inaugural committee, announced in the HARDtalk telecast on "BBC" Elton John's speech at the National Mall in Washington. Despite the absurdity of such news, information instantly appeared in all publications and caused a resonance. The fact is that the musician is a close friend of the Clinton family and actively supported Hillary during the election campaign.
Immediately followed by the answer of the official representative of musician Frank Curtis, where he laconically and clearly announced:
Elton John will not speak at Trump's inauguration.
Let's remind, that earlier, Trump's PR-team actively used the musician's hits during the pre-election campaign. Compositions Rocket Man and Tiny Dancer sounded at rallies in support of the Republican candidate, but permission for their use was never received from Elton John. Representatives of the singer did not inflate the scandal in this regard, but "unfair rules of the game" reflected on the relationship between Donald Trump and Elton John.

In the role of first lady, secretary of state or presidential candidate in the US - Hillary Clinton has always supported the social initiatives of Elton John and his foundation of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. At one of his performances the musician said:
I have always been a big fan of Hillary Clinton and I hope that in the future she will become an American president. I admire her, because she is a fighter in spirit and her contribution to the protection of human rights is incredible.
