Lara Trump’s ties to Khloe Kardashian as she could

The mass exodus of artists from President Donald Trump’s Great American State Fair has sparked jokes that his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, might have to take the stage herself.

The 43-year-old aspiring singer has an sudden musical connection to Khloe Kardashian, who dated one among her collaborators, rapper French Montana. In February 2025, the Fox News host launched the single No Days Off alongside the Moroccan-American rapper.

Montana later opened up about his relationship with the actuality star, saying, “Me and Khloé are always going to be friends, and the family still remains close.”

Khloé’s ex and the father of two of her kids, former NBA participant Tristan Thompson, revealed earlier this 12 months that he’s “very close” with Eric Trump, Lara’s husband.

“He’s been actually great for me. He’s been like a big brother, mentor, been very welcoming,” Thompson said on The Katie Miller Podcast.

Those connections have added a sharper edge to the social media mockery now swirling round Freedom 250’s crumbling leisure lineup.

When Freedom 250 announced 9 performers for the Great American State Fair, a 16-day exposition on the National Mall working June 25 via July 10, most of them pulled out nearly instantly, saying they’d felt misled about the event’s ties to President Trump.

Martina McBride, The Commodores, Morris Day & The Time, Young MC, Milli Vanilli, and Bret Michaels have all withdrawn. McBride said she had been assured the event was nonpartisan and centered on all 50 states.

“Yesterday things started changing and what we were told is, in fact, not what is happening,” she wrote.

With the lineup in freefall, social media customers turned their consideration to Lara. One consumer on X posted a clip from her music video for “Hero,” writing, “Rest those pipes, Lara, they might need you to perform this hit for America’s 250th.”

Another declared, “We all know how this ends: Lara Trump on stage.” A 3rd wrote: “It looks like Lara Trump may have to take the stage after all at this rate.”

President Trump announced Saturday he would headline the truthful himself, writing on Truth Social that he was contemplating bringing “the man who some say is the Greatest President in History (THE GOAT!), DONALD J. TRUMP, to take the place of these highly paid, Third Rate ‘Artists.'”
