Here's What Lara Trump Has Been Up To Since Her Fox News Exit

Political television correspondent to musician seems like quite the transition, but Lara Trump took the chance. Lara has released two cover singles that have caused quite an uproar. According to Newsweek, in 2020, the family of late musician Tom Petty sent President Donald Trump a cease-and-desist letter after he used his song "I Won't Back Down" during one of his rallies. Years later, Lara seemed to rekindle the conflict after she released a cover of the song.

Whether it comes as a surprise or not, the track did pretty well among supporters. According to Forbes, Lara's cover of "I Won't Back Down" earned the No. 10 spot on Billboard's Digital Song Sales chart in October 2023. She didn't stop there. A month later, the former television correspondent dropped one more single – an acoustic version of the same track.

However, the second release came with some drama after Lara began throwing claims at streaming services, suggesting they were "shadow-banning" her music. She wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, "No surprise here — suppression of my newest acoustic single, 'I Won't Back Down,' has already begun. Spotify hasn't yet "approved" it (for reasons they cannot explain) but, you can find it everywhere else!!" Despite Lara's claims, both the acoustic and original cover songs are on Spotify. Creating music has been Lara's latest venture following her exit from Fox News, but it's unclear whether she will continue to pursue the new passion.
