The singer and songwriter of Y.M.C.A., the Village People hit that became a signature part of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, has said he would “seriously consider” performing the song at the President-elect’s request.

Victor Willis recently issued a statement via Facebook on Trump’s usage of the song, becoming somewhat of a fan of the Republican after initially asking him to cease using it as campaign rallies. The 1978 track skyrocketed to #1 following the presidential election, with Willis noting its commercial success in recent weeks.

In an interview with Fox and Friends, Willis – who voiced support for Vice President Kamala Harris during the campaign – did not endorse Trump, and initially replied, “Probably not,” when asked if he would perform at Trump’s inauguration because it could be viewed as an endorsement.

But he did give one condition in which he would be willing to perform there; if Trump personally requested it.

WILLIS: If you were to ask me today if the Village People would perform at the inauguration, I would probably say not because we’d be concerned about endorsement.

However, because the president-elect has done so much for YMCA and brought so much joy to so many people, the song has actually gone back to No. 1, and it’s still No. 1 today, so if he were to ask the Village People to perform the song live for him, we’d have to seriously consider it.

NEW: YMCA singer Victor Willis suggests he would be open to performing the song at Trump’s inauguration, says he will sue outlets who call the song a “gay anthem.”

Based.

Willis says he supports Trump using the song because it brings “joy to the American people.”

Others were optimistic about the prospect of a performance on Jan. 20.

If Victor Willis performs YMCA at Trump’s inauguration, it will be a moment to remember. Say what you want about Trump but he sure knows how to bring people together and now even the Village People might join the party. Let’s see if America can dance its way back to unity

This would definitely break with traditional inaugurations…

Exactly the reason President #Trump may consider bringing in YMCA singer Victor Willis to perform at the inauguration!

Can you imagine the reaction of @BarackObama and other Democrat elites who may be in attendance!
