Katy Perry, the American singer, criticized the White House for using her song "Firework" in a video of the U.S. attack on targets in Iran, stating that this use was done without her knowledge and consent. She added that she is deeply shocked and angry about this action.

On Thursday, the White House released a video on its official TikTok account that featured the "boom, boom, boom" section of "Firework" alongside images of the U.S. attacks on targets in southern Iran. The White House captioned the video: "Iran has been warned."

On Saturday, Katy Perry wrote on X: "I am deeply shocked and angry that my song 'Firework' was used as the background music for a military attack video on the White House TikTok account. I did not approve this use, I was not asked for permission, and I do not endorse or support it in any way."
