I think we can safely say that there are hateful and intolerant people from all political persuasions. At least here we can celebrate the artistry of a beautiful and tolerant young women who could teach all of us a lesson in patience and selflessness, no matter our personal preferences in religion, politics and social issues. Amen. A safe place for all of us who love and support Jackie. Keeping her in prayer for her safety and confidence on Jan 20. Just an aside, if they are going after Jackie for singing, why don't they go after the Chief Justice of the Supreme court? He will be swearing Trump in.

An excellent comment at Jackies Facecbook page: Gary Smith‎ an Jackie Evancho 1 Std · If you need some help when dealing with a cyber bully, here is a little something I put together. Remember always be courteous! Look at Trumps choice of Jackie Evancho. The young phenome is brilliant! Proves there is a lot of NY Liberal left in Trump. The Evancho's are the perfect example of a loving, accepting LGBT family. She is a friend to the environment and staunch animal rights activist and a personal friend to the Obama family. The title song of her new album is anti war and discrimination! Jackie as do many, believe art should transcend politics. Evancho already has a stunning career. And the Trump people know all this! They are clearly signaling, a continuing shift by the Republican Party on certain social issues. A victory for Democrats. no? Compromise move on or is it always about power instead of people? If Democrats or in reality their hyper partisan associations, attempt to bully Ms. Evancho and the other artists, there is no political upside, and the pinnacle of hypocrisy: This is who we're cyber bullying! The Pope: Some Pop: Merry Christmas: Wikipedia can give you the basics on the Evancho's. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_EvanchoSky is the limit for this 16 year old Pennsylvania school girl and attempts to destroy her is really fascism in it purest form. If we hurt this little girl for politics, folks...... we're bums the lot of us, and that's plain enough for anyone to see!

Where he gets this ""personal friend to the Obama family "" ? i never knew of that , i did not see her with the Obama girls on a personal way , perhaps i miss that , another opinion Mr Smith that i don't know if real , plus they were a loving , accepting family before the LGBT happening . straight family can be also , the attacks just show how many shallow , nasty , uncaring , thoughtless people are out there , watch and read who they back and who they attack , there are two kinds of people in this country and it needs a change to clean it up

Sounds good Robin. As you say, we don't know if they can do anything, but at least you tried. BTW, Jackie "got it from the other side" when she did the movie with Robert Redford that had an overt political theme; there was a lot of hostility from the right side of the political spectrum. Then when Juliet came out as transgender, Jackie got more criticism. She can't vote yet & has always been apolitical. She's singing for the country, for the office, not just one man. "" got in from the other side "" How does one know if one is right or left on a subject ? does one hold up a vote ticket , can one be in the middle but have just a opinion leaning right or left ?

Good point, BG, we don't know. Many people have a mix of different beliefs. I just know there was a lot of venom on Amzn when Jackie did a movie with Redford that had political themes.

Several of us are anti-Trump here (as is our right), but still believe it's a great honor for Jackie to sing the SSB at the inauguration.

I find myself hoping this doesn't sour her relationship with Foster- not to mention the many other contacts she has made with show business people over the years. In the case of Foster, I don't mean their personal relationship, but will he worry whether she would be as popular at his charity events?

I think people are cutting Jackie at least a bit of slack because she's young. She can also mention singing for Obama twice & making a movie with Redford.

Her family has to be too. I bet it`s the best way.

I think Jackie being non partisan by singing at a national function will, in the long run, accrue to her beneficially. People will forget this tempest in a teapot issue as it is currently being portrayed and remember Jackie as that pretty American teen who sang so beautifully at yet another big national function. The notoriety she is getting seems already to be benefiting her ticket sales of the California concerts coming up in early February. One concert is virtually sold out and another nearly so. Lots of people are checking her out for the first time and like so many of us here, one Youtube video leads to an all-nighter and a new fan.

And in the future, those of us who live long enough will see Jackie perform at many more national functions, regardless of what party is in power, which might someday be parties that don't exist now.

JACKIE EVANCHO What Backlash?? TRUMP MADE ME #1! Jackie Evancho is defying what seems to be conventional entertainment wisdom -- that singing at Donald Trump's inauguration is career-threatening -- because she just shot to #1 on the charts. We're told since the America's Got Talent runner-up has signed on to sing "The Star Spangled Banner" on January 20th, her weekly album sales quadrupled in digital downloads and in retailer as well. In fact her album, "Someday at Christmas," had to be restocked twice. Jackie's album jumped to #1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart. #lastlaugh www.tmz.com/2016/12/25/jackie-evancho-donald-trump-inauguration-sales/

I will be betting that she will have a resurgence of the sales of her previous albums too. JQ Public is again being exposed to the greatest singer ever born. When she appeared on AGT her albums sold out overnight.
