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/ This headline in this article is not correct!
Jackies album went #1, one week before the announcement was made, that she'll be singing the National Anthem. So it has nothing to do with Mr. Trump, going for number 1. That more people buy her CD after the announcement, that is correct.

This I will say for sure: (pgantioch said:) " a dedicated liberal wouldn't have worked with Rep Orie, or agreed to sing at the Trump inauguration." All I intended to get said was that Jackie WILL get to the concert. Jackie DOES work to please ALL . And Never Judge anyone. I find it discusting that that 'Andre' guy has backed out ! Doesn't that fool know that Half the USA are for Trump He might have 'F'ed himself good. (i hope)

PGA: Agree. mrsg: "I find it [disgusting] that that 'Andre' guy has backed out! ...Half the USA are for Trump..." PGA: Don't forget, Bocelli is Italian & DFos is Canadian. They don't really owe us any patriotism. They have their own countries. You could appeal to American performers' patriotism, but not necessarily to theirs.

You are correct, I hadn't thought of that.
I wonder why Trump invited Bocelli in the first place ??

mrsg: "All I intended to get said was that Jackie WILL get to the concert." Actually, you added that Bocelli was "disgusting" for not performing, & you hoped his career would be "F'ed" (your words). Of course we don't know what happened behind closed doors, but we're told that it was Bocelli who offered to sing, but Trump's people turned him down! Maybe someday we'll know the real details. However, ragnarok is right, this is at least a semi-political discussion. This series of posts WILL be moved from this thread. I'm asking other mods whether they should be moved to the Jan 20th appearance thread (which is actually the subject; who will perform at the inauguration?) or the politics thread. Politics have been causing us conflict again, & we're voting (again) about whether to delete the whole thread. I think votes may be turning against it, so it may be deleted again. If so, this whole series of posts could be deleted. Just sayin'...

That more people buy her CD after the announcement, that is correct. Yeah, TMZ isn't the hardest hitting "news" program on the planet. I suspect the increase in sales are due to Jackie's numerous appearances on morning shows, AGT Christmas special and etc. I can't discount that perhaps some of the sales are due to the coverage surrounding her planned inauguration performance however.

Yeah pretty trashy site IYAM. Editing as if from someone's basement. What I don't like, besides the implication that SAC was not #1 "before Trump" is the headline, combined with the photoshopped pic, which more than just implies that Jackie said such a s---w you kind of thing.

And the double usage of negative/emotive words in the title beneath that photoshopped image is classical psychomarketing (which I have studied at Canberra Uni). If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would say that this is intentional (to alienate the left) and will be followed a few days before the inauguration by a contentious (eg transgender) issue article (to alienate the right), as Music Industry punishment for someone daring to break ranks. BUT Occam's razor tells me that human stupidity and greed is the most likely reason. But who knows..

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. Yikes !!! are we going to die ? , >>>>>>>>>>>>>run >>>>>>>>>>>>>Concerts

If I read some artist fear the public reactions I remember DF: "She is fearless" Yes, and soon after AGT a fan from Italy called her "Courageous Little Lioness". La Piccola Leonessa Coraggiosa!

Actually, all of Jackie's albums since AGT have gone to #1 on the Billboard classical charts, except for PTAD, which went to #2 after she sang on AGT. She got a boost out of the inauguration, but it just helped her back to her usual place. It's an exaggeration to say Trump alone made her #1. Edit: And as yellowstone pointed out, it went to #1 the week before the announcement. But as you say, the Jan 20th gig, plus all the TV surrounding it, probably helped keep her there.

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. This is already happening. People are discovering, or rediscovering, her.
