Swedish pop singer Zara Larsson objected after White House staff used one of her recordings in a clip that backed deportations. Footage shared on Reddit showed her saying the material left her unhappy and that she hoped to speak with whoever produced it.

She pointed to her own good fortune in being born in Sweden, where she received medical care and schooling, unlike others seeking improved conditions for relatives. Larsson said she could not see why lacking legal status should count as the gravest problem and viewed the clip as stripping people of humanity. The 28-year-old performer, known for Lush Life and Midnight Sun, also called the people behind the video uncool losers.
