Pop singer Joy Villa arrived Sunday at the 2017 Grammy
Awards wearing a simple white outfit– until she removed it on the red carpet,
revealing a dress in the style of Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again”
presidential campaign posters.
In an Instagram video, Villa says “My whole artistic
platform is about LOVE. She goes on to say “I couldn't be where I am today
without the love and tenderness of those beautiful supporters and friends
around me. Thank you.”
However, love was the last thing on the minds of many
leftists reacting to the young star’s fashion statement.
In a recent vlog, Villa shares how she overcomes much of
the criticism she has received. She encourages aspiring performing artists to
“tell the haters to eff off, because they have no say over your life — and as a
performing artist, people are going to criticize you ’til you’re black and
blue.”
