Trump Inauguration Singer Criticizes Presidential Policy It’s all fun and games and “He won…just get over it,” until Trump’s policies hit folks in a spot that’s personally uncomfortable for them. Jackie Evancho, the 16-year-old singer and only performer Trump could book to sing the national anthem just before Trump was sworn in has changed her tune just a month after Trump took office.

Because of the intersections that exist in my own life: woman, multi-racial woman, woman of color, queer, bisexual, Mexican-Irish American, immigrant, and raised by families heavily rooted in Catholicism on both my Mexican and Irish sides, I am deeply invested in projects that allow our youth’s voices to be heard.” We can only guess that none of this comes as a shock to some of you who watch Sara play a bisexual doctor Callie Torres, but it is still acting… Image via ABC
