Joy Villa Turns Heads With Pro-Life Outfit at the Grammys

Award-winning singer/songwriter Joy Villa wore a DOGE coin dress and a red hat with the message "The hat stays on" to the 67th Grammy Awards.

Singer and songwriter Joy Villa, known for her bold statements on the Grammy red carpet, arrived at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday in a striking gold gown adorned with images of the DOGE Shiba Inu dog meme.

Villa completed her ensemble with a necklace featuring the meme's face and a red hat that boldly proclaimed, "The hat stays on."

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Villa explained the込められたメッセージ behind her unique attire.

"I was kind of a walking meme," she said. "Obviously, I’m a MAGA girl and MAGA and crypto are starting to bridge the gap."

"Cryptocurrency represents freedom," she added. "We can disengage from the big banks. As artists, we can dictate our own financial independence."

Atelier dress designer Andre Soriano crafted the gown, marking another collaboration between Villa and the designer known for the controversial "Make America Great Again" dress Villa wore to the 2017 Grammys.

"I’ve had people try to snatch my MAGA hats off," Villa said.

Villa revealed that she has faced尖鋭な言葉 منذ she began voicing her support for President Donald Trump and his policies eight years ago, including threats of sexual assault, death, and racial slurs. Despite these experiences, she maintains that the hat serves as a testament to her courage, resilience, and vitality.

"I don’t worship Trump, but I worship Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior, and I know that God gave me a voice to speak in Hollywood as an artist, as an actress, as a musician," she told Fox News Digital. "The red carpet is my battlefield."

A central aspect of Villa's conservative messaging at high-profile events is her Christian faith.

"I shared Jesus Christ with every single person I interviewed and none of them posted that," she said.

"America needs to bless God because the fight is not over yet," she added. "We got to stop aborting babies. We got to put prayer back in schools. Nobody needs to have their religion demonized and, for some reason, you can say every other name at the Grammys or the red carpet awards except for Jesus Christ."

While Villa's remarks about religion were largely overlooked by the media, her statement in support of mass deportations of illegal immigrants in the U.S. gained attention.

"I’m a proud Afro-Latina," she said. "I know being in the Latina community, being a woman of color, I know how much illegal immigration hurts us, and people won't talk about that."

Since taking office on Jan. 20, Trump has moved to fulfill his pledge of mass deportations and cracked down on illegal immigration. This has included terminating deportation protection for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans and deporting thousands of illegal immigrants to Mexico.

"It is a crime to come here illegally," Villa said. "I’ve traveled to 39 countries and in every single one of them I had to get the proper documentation and show my ID."

Villa also took aim at actress Selena Gomez, who recently used social media to express her distress over President Trump's swift action to remove illegal immigrants.

"Girl, sit all the way down," she said. "You are an American citizen and those are not your people."

"Deport everyone who's coming here illegally," she concluded.
