SHOCKING: JAZZ LEGEND CHUCK REDD DECLARES “NO ENTRY” TO THE WHITE HOUSE, CANCELS LAST-MINUTE SHOW BECAUSE OF DONALD TRUMP: “I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN ANY PLACE WITH TRUMP’S NAME OR ANYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH HIM…”
Christmas shock: Jazz legend Chuck Redd officially “declares war,” canceling the sensational annual “Christmas Eve Jazz Jam” of more than 20 years at the Kennedy Center because Donald Trump’s name was added to the marquee! After over two decades of dedication, the artist declared he would rather “throw away” his career than accept the presence of the infamous president on such a prestigious stage: “I also won’t perform at the White House until it is occupied by a Democratic president.”
But instead of ignoring the matter, Trump responded in a way that can only be described as “unbelievable,” sending the crescendo of this artistic drama soaring higher—a reaction both arrogant and crazy enough to shock lawyers and fellow artists alike.
### **Jazz Tradition Upended: Chuck Redd Cancels Kennedy Center Concert After Trump Name Added to Building**
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a surprising turn during the holiday season, veteran jazz musician Chuck Redd has canceled the long‑running **Christmas Eve “Jazz Jam”** concert at the *Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts*, a tradition he helped sustain for nearly two decades. The decision came shortly after *President Donald Trump’s name was officially added* to the venue’s exterior as part of a contentious renaming announced by the White House.
Redd — a respected drummer and vibraphonist who took over the festive jazz event in 2006 — announced the cancellation through an email to news outlets, saying that he decided to pull out after seeing the name change online and on the building itself. “When I saw the name change… I chose to cancel our concert,” he said, without offering further political commentary.
The Kennedy Center — historically a bipartisan cultural landmark established by Congress in 1964 as a memorial to President John F. Kennedy — has become the center of a heated debate. Trump’s appointees on the center’s board voted to rename the institution to *“The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.”* Critics, including legal experts and members of the Kennedy family, argue that federal law prohibits adding another individual’s name without congressional approval.
Reaction to Redd’s cancellation has been mixed. Some supporters praised his stand, viewing it as an affirmation of artistic principles, while the Kenned y Center’s president **Richard Grenell criticized the last‑minute withdrawal**, calling it a “political stunt” that negatively affected a nonprofit arts institution. According to media reports, the center is considering financial remedies due to the sudden change. (
The controversy also ignited broader responses in the arts community, with other performers distancing themselves from the renamed venue. Meanwhile, legal challenges are underway seeking to reverse the renaming.
As it stands, the 2025 holiday staging of the jazz jam will not go forward, marking an unusual intersection of cultural tradition and political symbolism at one of America’s most prestigious performance spaces.
