Donald Trump Will Reportedly Ask Andrea Bocelli to Play his Inauguration

According to a report from Page Six, President-Elect Donald Trump will ask Andrea Bocelli to play his inauguration, and plans to ask him personally. A source said, “Trump has a long-standing relationship with Bocelli, and wants to ask him in person to perform. The plan is to have acts at the inauguration that are meaningful for Trump, and he’s a huge fan of Bocelli.”

There have been a ton of questions surrounding who will do the inauguration. While Garth Brooks indicated he would be interested, reports that Elton John would be playing turned out to be absolutely false.

Bocelli is in New York City for a Madison Square Garden performance Thursday and will reportedly meet with Trump on Friday. The source said, “One thing is for sure, you won’t see Beyoncé lip-syncing again this year.”
