Joni Mitchell has made her voice heard in the upcoming US election, responding: “Fuck Donald Trump!” to an audience member who yelled an insult about the Republican presidential candidate.

“I love that song,” Mitchell continued – presumably a reference to the 2016 YG song FDT.

Performing her first headline concert in Los Angeles in 24 years on Saturday, Mitchell, 80, said: “Everybody get out and vote. This is an important one. I wish I could vote – I’m Canadian. I’m one of those lousy immigrants.”
