In an interview with Harper's Bazaar for its February issue, the music icon likened the election to the worst breakup of her life. "On election night I was sitting at a table with my agent, who is also one of my very best friends, and we were truly praying . . . It was just like watching a horror show," she said. "I went to sleep, and since that night, I wake up every morning and it's like when you break up with somebody who has really broken your heart. You wake up and for a second you're just you, and then you go, 'Oh, the person I love more than anything has just broken my heart, and I'm devastated and I'm broken and I have nothing. I'm lost.' That's how I feel every morning. I wake up and I go, 'Wait a second. Donald Trump is the president. It's not a bad dream. It really happened.' It's like being dumped by a lover and also being stuck in a nightmare."
