Trump rants about Lady Gaga and Jon Bon Jovi ahead of election

The US Election Day is finally here – and in the final hours of his campaign, Donald Trump has taken aim not only at his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, and disease expert Dr Anthony Fauci, but the unexpected targets of music stars Lady Gaga and Jon Bon Jovi.

Speaking at a rally in Avoca, Pennsylvania yesterday, Trump attacked celebrities who have come out in support of Biden in the run up to the election – which takes place today, November 3.

"Now he's got Lady Gaga," Trump said during the rally. "Lady Gaga. It's not too good. I could tell you plenty of stories. I could tell you stories about Lady Gaga. I know a lot of stories. Lady Gaga."

"And Jon Bon Jovi," Trump continued. "Every time I see him he kisses my ass: 'Oh, Mr President...'"

Lady Gaga and Jon Bon Jovi are among many musicians who have voiced their support for Biden ahead of the election. Others include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Beyoncé, Sean Combs, Fall Out Boy, Justin Timberlake, Cardi B, Madonna and Eminem.
