“Shut up. Nobody asked you.”

Successful music producer Pharrell Williams said in a new interview that he was “upset” by the support of celebrities after they took a stand on the election.

“I don't do politics. In fact, sometimes I get annoyed when I see celebrities trying to tell you [who to vote for],” Williams said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

Pop star Taylor Swift dominated headlines last week when she endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, who has a number of other prominent supporters for her 2024 campaign.

Swift's endorsement followed immediately on the heels of the first debate between Harris and former President Trump.

Taylor Swift's support for Harris has met with mixed reactions from voters: “This is huge and unfortunate.”

Williams responded to The Hollywood Reporter's question about whether he would allow presidential candidates to use his music in their campaigns.

“There are celebrities I respect and who have an opinion, but not all of them,” he said. “I am one of those people [who says]”What the hell? Shut up. Nobody asked you.”

“When people go out there and get self-righteous, roll up their sleeves and s—, and walk around out there with a sign saying, 'Shut up!' Well, no, I'd rather stay out of it and of course I'm going to vote the way I'm going to vote. I care about my people and I care about the country, but I feel like there's a lot of work to be done and I'm really about the action.”

Williams' comments came after Trump's political campaign was accused of copyright infringement by prominent entertainers.

TRUMP SAYS TAYLOR SWIFT'S SUPPORT OF HARRIS WAS 'ONLY A MATTER OF TIME'

Most recently, the White Stripes followed through on their threat of legal action after a Trump aide posted a video of one of the band's songs. Last month, Margo Martin, Trump's deputy communications director, posted a video montage of Trump en route to a rally while the White Stripes' song “Seven Nation Army” played as he boarded a plane.

The band filed a lawsuit for copyright infringement and accused the campaign of “blatant misuse” of their hit song.

The lawsuit was filed last week in the Southern District of New York.

Other musicians who have spoken out about the Trump campaign's use of their music include Isaac Hayes, Mick Jagger, Lorde, Sia, Blondie, Sheryl Crow, Green Day, Lionel Richie, Elvis Costello, Keith Richards, Steven Tyler and Rosanne Cash.
