The iconic singer-songwriter put the ex-President on blast during her recent concert at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday—and reminded her fans how important it is for them to vote.

Iconic singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell's fans went wild after she put former President Donald Trump on blast during a concert at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday—and reminded her fans how important it is for them to vote.

After performing “Dog Eat Dog,” a song about the powerful who “lie, cheat, skim, scam,” Mitchell added a pointed remark following the line about “big-wig financiers,” saying, “Like Donald Trump.” Once the song ended, she delved further, sharing her thoughts on the Republican presidential candidate.


She said:

"F**k Donald Trump. Everybody get out and vote. This is an important one. I wish I could vote – I’m Canadian. I’m one of those lousy immigrants."

As the crowd cheered, she laughed and added:

"I just made about 17,000 people vote so I'd say you did you part."

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Many praised Mitchell's remarks.

Mitchell's comments came during her first performance in Los Angeles in 28 years, performing hit songs that she'd not sung publicly in decades.

The singer, who is spearheading an archival reissue project of remastered and unreleased material, is the second prominent musician to criticize Trump over the last few days.

Musician Rufus Wainwright criticized Trump for playing his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" at a recent MAGA rally in Pennsylvania, saying in a statement that he was "mortified" and telling MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle that Trump's use of it was "blasphemous."

Wainwright, who like countless others was disturbed by the over 30 minutes of Trump swaying on stage, occasionally breaking into his signature two-handed dance, as songs like his cover of "Hallelujah" played in the background, described Trump as a "broken man" who "needs help and is expressing some kind of yearning for redemption."

While stressing the importance of keeping Trump out of office, said if the moment "turns out to be one of the craziest moments where people can really look at Trump and see how insane he is and it helps bring him down, I would be really happy to be a part of that."

AOC Has Mic Drop Response To MAGA Republicans Who Try To Mock 'Democratic Priorities'

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez issued a powerful rebuke against President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, pointing out why mocking things like affordable housing and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "Democrat priorities" ultimately hurts Republicans.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
