Photo of Sheryl Crow wearing anti-Trump shirt is doctored

If Your Time is short

  • This photo is altered. 

Singer Sheryl Crow has not hidden her distaste for former President Donald Trump, but a photo that looks like she’s wearing a shirt that says "Keep America Trumpless" has been doctored. 

In the image, Crow is smiling with her hands on her hips. The shirt also has the shape of the United States filled with a waving American flag. 

This post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)

A reverse image search shows that in the original image, shared on Crow’s Instagram account in August 2018, the shirt says "Love is all we need." She posted it with a heart emoji.

About a year earlier, she appeared on the show "Good Morning Britain" and said she hoped he would soon be out of office. 

"What we need is a functioning government," she said. "For the last 144 days, nothing but chaos." 

We rate this altered post False.
