Former US President Donald Trump's use of Celine Dion's iconic hit "My Heart Will Go On" at a recent campaign rally in Montana has sparked controversy. The song, famously featured in the 1997 blockbuster movie Titanic, was played without the singer's permission, prompting Dion's management team and record label to issue a statement.

In a statement released on Saturday, Dion's team denounced the unauthorized use of her music. "In no way is this use authorized and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use," the statement read. The artist's team emphasized that Dion did not give permission for her song to be used for political purposes.

The unauthorized use of Dion's music has raised concerns about copyright infringement and the potential misuse of celebrity endorsements. Dion's team has stated that they are considering legal action to protect the singer's rights.
