U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley ripped a skit at Sunday night's Grammys where celebrities read excerpts of the new book Fire and Fury, tweeting, "Don't ruin great music with trash."
In a planned segment, host James Corden had different musicians read portions of Michael Wolff's new book that is heavily critical of the Trump White House in an attempt to win a Spoken Word Grammy.
Trump's 2016 opponent Hillary Clinton made a "surprise" appearance at the end, reading a portion about President Donald Trump's fondness for fast food.

So he is a man of the real people...like it or not the US kills fast food...
This is just like the NFL. We pay them to make music we could care less about their political views. If they don't stop with the politics we will all boycott them also. Not buy their CD's, not listen to their music and not buy tickets to go to their concerts.
Have already done it, same for actors/acctresses, they can shove their opinions!
Yes 11:13, already done that too. I could care less what they think in their protected little rich lives. They are not America.
Boycotted all that stupid crap many years ago. I realized a long time ago that these people live in another world. They can't begin to understand how most of America lives. They are legends in their own minds. It didn't take Trump bashing to realize this.
The Grammys are just as relevant to my life as the annual achievement awards at the National Gravel Association galas.
And so are the comments of the participants.
Great music?
I guess we are entitled to our own opinions . . .
Stopped watching awards shows and anything "Hollywood" long ago. Boycotting the NFL too. That's my right.
Yeah that was some great music. You couldn't understand a word of the rappers singing their protest songs against Trump.
Ok ok, we get it. Musicians/artists should only challenge social and political thinking when it agrees with your position
