Trump's team announce 'best inauguration ever'. World doesn't believe them.

Despite the many, many, many stories of acts turning down invitations to perform at President-Elect Trump's inauguration that have appeared on news sites across the world, the team responsible for putting the show together have insisted that not only have they got all of the performers that they really, really wanted, but that this will be the best inauguration day, like, ever.

Many commentators have taken these claims with a large shipment of salt, pointing out there is nobody performing with  public profile as big as, say, Bruce Springsteen, BeyoncĂ© or Stevie Wonder, all of whom played for President Obama's inaugurations.

We Are Fake News's North America culture correspondent Chuck Mediaman reported "Forget Springsteen, the guy selling hotdogs at Obama's inaugurations had bigger fan bases than these guys. Who are they? I've not heard of any of them."

The Trump team pointed out that the line-up was headed by Jon Voight, Oscar winner for Best Actor in 1978 for the film Coming Home. The fact that he also appeared in Anaconda was tactfully not mentioned.

The inauguration is likely to be the most expensive in history, mainly due to every single item of furniture and decoration having to be dipped in gold before it can be used.
