President Obama’s final White House party is expected to outclass Donald Trump’s inauguration, as it reportedly features several top performers.

Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney are among those who will be performing at Obama’s last White House party on Friday, according to the International Business Times.

Trump’s team has reportedly had some difficulty getting some of the big names in entertainment to participate in his ceremony, which will take place on Jan. 20. Some of those who have turned down invitations to perform at Trump’s inauguration include Elton John, Garth Brooks, Celine Dion, The Chainsmokers, Justin Timberlake, Andrea Bocelli, KISS, and Ice-T, according to The Wrap.

Entertainers who turned down invitations to the Inauguration were threatened with *you will never work again* if they accepted...a difficult choice to make.

I don't really see how Beyonce or Springsteen would add class to any affair, but that's just me.   :shrug:

Hope the Grifter-in-Chief enjoys his lavish party.  When he leaves the White House, he won't have that seemingly unlimited supply of taxpayer dollars to spend on his recreational pursuits anymore.   I doubt Beyonce, et al will perform for him for free.
