‘I couldn't care less': Trump sparks drama at politically charged Les Miserables debut
Donald Trump was met with cheers and boos as he attended a performance of Les Miserables on Wednesday at Washington's premier cultural institution. Trump's appearance at the opening night of the hit musical Les Miserables at the renowned Kennedy Center could hardly have been more politically charged. The 78-year-old Republican recently orchestrated a conservative takeover of the famed arts venue. Cheers but also boos met US President Donald Trump as he attended a performance Wednesday of Les Miserables at Washington's premier cultural institution, which he has effectively seized control of since returning to power in January. Trump's appearance at the opening night of the hit musical Les Miserables at the renowned Kennedy Center could hardly have been more politically charged. The 78-year-old Republican recently orchestrated a conservative takeover of the famed arts venue, reportedly prompting some Les Mis cast members to boycott the show. 'I couldn't care less. Honestly, I couldn't. All I do is run the country well,' Trump told reporters when asked about a boycott as he arrived with First Lady Melania Trump. The show's tale of revolutionary fervour, featuring street protesters in 19th century France manning the barricades against a repressive leader also seemed to take on new relevance as the United States itself faces fresh turbulence over Trump's governance. When the presidential couple appeared Wednesday evening on the central balcony, emblazoned with a presidential seal, booing audience members appeared to struggle to make themselves heard over cheers and chants of 'USA! USA!' 'Dictatorial' behaviour Trump, who was joined by Vice President JD Vance and second lady Usha Vance at the premiere, has recently sent in troops to deal with protests against immigration raids in Los Angeles. 'We're going to have a safe country... Remember, if I wasn't there... Los Angeles would have been burning to the ground,' Trump insisted to reporters. California officials accuse him of 'dictatorial' behaviour and of manufacturing a confrontation by deploying thousands of National Guard troops and US Marines. 'I think the irony is probably lost on him,' Peter Loge, director of George Washington University's School of Media, told AFP. California's Democratic governor Gavin Newsom, who has harshly criticised Trump's actions in his state, reacted on X to news that Trump was attending the musical with the plea: 'Someone explain the plot to him.' The social injustice portrayed in Victor Hugo's 1862 novel - coupled with songs such as Do You Hear the People Sing? and I Dreamed a Dream - has long resonated with audiences around the world. Billionaire Trump, who had announced his decision to attend Les Miserables before the Los Angeles protests erupted, says he too has long been a fan. 'Love the songs' The real estate tycoon has played songs from the show at his rallies and political events. 'I love the songs, I love the play,' Trump told Fox News Digital last week. Asked which of the play's characters he most identified with, however, Trump punted to his wife. 'That's a tough one... you better answer that one, honey,' Trump replied. Alex WROBLEWSKI / AFP His attendance is yet another show of strength after installing himself as chairman of the center and replacing the entire board with loyalists in February. Loge said Trump's presence there was part of a broader effort at image-making by the reality TV star-turned-president. ' Les Mis is a great spectacle. And it sounds smart. It's not just a show, it sounds like it stands for something,' he said. Trump's takeover of the John F. Kennedy Center faced opposition in some quarters. A historically bipartisan-supported institution, it has never been led by a US president before. Hit show Hamilton cancelled its run there in response. Trump countered by saying he had 'never liked' the rap musical, which is about the birth of the United States and its first treasury secretary. Several key figures at the Kennedy Center - including TV producer Shonda Rhimes, who created Grey's Anatomy, and musician Ben Folds - resigned from their leadership positions. And the Vances - Usha Vance is one of the new board members - were booed by the Kennedy Center audience at a performance of the National Symphony Orchestra in March. Trump's takeover of the Kennedy Center comes amid a broader assault on what he deems 'woke' programming at cultural institutions, including the famed Smithsonian museums, as well as universities.

The ‘Sultan of Sequins' Gets Another Look
The designer Bob Mackie strolled through a gallery at the Soho Grand Hotel one recent afternoon while a team installed a show featuring his fashion sketches of divas like Cher, Madonna and Tina Turner, which became his blueprints for the glitzy dresses that electrified their personas on the stage. Mr. Mackie, slightly tired from his journey from California to New York but still upbeat, considered his sketch of Cher's black jeweled and black feathered outfit from the 1986 Academy Awards: 'It turned Cher into this amazing exotic odd being — she seems not real, and yet, she is.' Then he considered his drawing of Elton John in a bedazzled pink jumpsuit: 'I told Elton he could be a new age Liberace, and I guess that's kind of what he became.' But Mr. Mackie paused when he arrived at his 1991 sketch of Madonna wearing a shimmering gown that paid homage to Marilyn Monroe. He furrowed his brow at the photograph beside it, of a young pop star wearing the same dress. 'Oh god, what's her name?' asked Mr. Mackie, now 86. 'She's that new girl. Sabrina.' He meant Sabrina Carpenter, who wore the dress as a scene-stealing vintage piece to last year's MTV Video Music Awards. 'Her stylist found it for her,' he said. 'I'm not so familiar with her music, but just look at her, she's really pulling it off.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
