Pharrell Williams sends Trump cease and desist letter for playing 'Happy' at a rally after Pittsburgh synagogue shooting

'There was nothing 'happy' about the tragedy inflicted upon our country on Saturday,' read the cease and desist letter sent by Pharrell's lawyers to President Donald Trump.
UPDATED OCT 30, 2018

Pharrell Williams is definitely not happy about Donald Trump playing his song 'Happy' during a political rally that took place on the same day where 11 people were killed in the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting. Pharrell's attorney sent President Donald Trump a cease and desist letter on Monday, condemning Trump's decision to play the Grammy-winning song, The Hollywood Reporter reports. “On the day of the mass murder of 11 human beings at the hands of a deranged ‘nationalist,’ you played [Williams’] song ‘Happy’ to a crowd at a political event in Indiana,” wrote Williams’ attorney, Howard King. “There was nothing ‘happy’ about the tragedy inflicted upon our country on Saturday and no permission was granted for your use of this song for this purpose.”
