Courtney Love is saying “cheerio” to Trump’s America.
The singer revealed she is permanently relocating to the UK during President Trump’s second term as POTUS.
“I’m really glad I’m here,” she said at the Royal Geographical Society in London, where she has lived since 2019, the Daily Mail reported Monday.
“It’s so great to live here. I’m finally getting my British citizenship in six months. I get to be a citizen. I’m applying, man! Can’t get rid of me!”
The comments elicited applause from the audience, which prompted Love, 60, to touch upon her fear of the current Republican administration.
“In terms of Trump and particularly this group … it’s like emperor-core. Like, [they’re] wearing million-dollar watches,” she explained.
“Emperor-core is going on at Mar-a-Lago. It’s frightening now. It’s like cyanide now.”
Even before Love moved from Los Angeles to England’s capital, she predicted she would “end up there.”
“I know what neighborhood I’m going to end up in, and I know that I want to be on the Thames,” she told the Standard in 2017.
“I subscribe to this magazine called Country Life, which is just real-estate porn and fox hunting. It’s amazing.”
The musician — who is a mom to 32-year-old daughter Frances Bean Cobain, whom she shared with late ex-husband Kurt Cobain — joins the growing list of celebrities who have fled the States due to Trump’s reelection in November 2024.
Former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, reportedly felt “very disillusioned” by the results and decided to “get the hell out” of the country immediately.
Rosie O’Donnell, who is also openly gay, revealed just last week that she and her 12-year-old non-binary child, Clay, set up shop in Ireland after Trump defeated Kamala Harris.
“When it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that’s when we will consider coming back,” the actress told her social media followers.
