Earlier this week, ‘Y.M.C.A.’ singer and co-writer Victor Willis of The Village People announced that he allowed President Trump to use his song at his rallies because he seemed to ‘genuinely like it’ and was ‘having a lot of fun’ with the song.”

Since last week Y.M.C.A is now number one on the Billboard charts after 45 years and the song is making a lot of money for the 70’s pop group.

Willis had a change of heart in the past four years. In 2020 he asked President Trump to stop using the song at his MAGA rallies.

But now that Trump has put YMC at #1 again Willis is talking about performing at the Trump Inauguration!

Victor Willis: I decided to contact BMI and, told them to not to terminate his, political use license because he seemed to be bringing so much joy to the American people, with his use of YMCA. The president-elect has done so much for YMCA, and and, brought so much joy to so many people. The song has has actually gone back to number 1, and it’s still number 1 today. So if he were to ask, Village People to perform the song live for him, we’d have to, seriously consider it.

That would be a showstopper!

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
