Music

The 'Hamilton' star proves he can make a musical out of any materials including holiday-themed tweets posted by the presidential candidate.

AceShowbiz - Lin-Manuel Miranda turns Donald Trump's tweets into a musical for GQ's latest issue. In the video, the "Hamilton" star belts out some of the Republican presidential candidate's holiday-themed tweets on a double-decker bus.

"I'm gonna be singing you some Trump tweets today," Lin-Manuel says, "I have not changed a word of these. Only added melody." He begins with a tune called "Backhanded Holiday Greetings", which features tweet, "Happy Thanksgiving to all- even the haters and losers!"

He then belts out Trump's infamous taco bowl tweet from Cinco de Mayo for "Racially Questionable Holiday Greetings" before singing "More Backhanded Holiday Greetings", a September 11 commemoration from the presidential candidate.

The video ends with a message which reads, "Trump The Musical, Coming November 8th (Maybe)."

In an interview with the magazine, Lin-Manuel discusses his upcoming movie "Mary Poppins Returns" with Emily Blunt. "Mary Poppins is to be directed by Rob Marshall, the guy who knows how to direct modern musicals," he explains, "This was a formula that was put in a bottle and thrown in the sea. Hollywood forgot how to do it for a really long time."

The 36-year-old actor adds, "What I'm excited about in London is surrendering to a different artistic world and seeing what that brings out when I'm singing, dancing, and being an actor for hire...Mary Poppins is an incredible world. To live in the world of Mary Poppins, singing and dancing-feeding my brain 50 different ways-and then going home to my wife and child; I actually can't think of a better way to spend six months."

Lin-Manuel is currently working on the scores for "Moana" and a live-action reboot of "The Little Mermaid".
