Donald Trump is Shaved | Adult Movies Onlinein quite the political pickle.

Jan. 20 is fast approaching and the president-elect is still having trouble finding celebrities who want to perform at his inauguration.

Well have no fear, Donald -- British singer and X Factoralum, Rebecca Ferguson, has agreed to perform on your big day...as long as you approve her song choice, that is.

On Monday, Ferguson revealed on Twitter that she had been asked to perform at the upcoming presidential event and publicly gave her response.

Rather than flat out deny the invitation like Sir Elton John did, the singer said she would perform, provided she be allowed to sing "Strange Fruit," a famous protest song which came from a Abel Meeropol poem.

Ferguson described the song -- recorded by notable singers like Billie Holiday and Nina Simone -- as a piece of music that "speaks to all the disregarded and down trodden black people in the United States."

She wrote:

"I've been asked and this is my answer. If you allow me to sing "strange fruit" a song that has huge historical importance, a song that was blacklisted in the United States for being too controversial. A song that speaks to all the disregarded and down trodden black people in the United States. A song that is a reminder of how love is the only thing that will conquer all the hatred in this world, then I will graciously accept your invitation and see you in Washington. Best Rebecca X"

Ferguson's somewhat unconventional offer is reminiscent of actor, Alec Baldwin's, who also gave Trump a song suggestion he probably wasn't too pleased about.

Back in December, the SNL actor said he would be happy to sing the classic AC/DC song, "Highway to Hell" at the inauguration.

Though Trump has yet to take Ferguson up on her offer, he has former America's Got Talentcontestant, Jackie Evancho lined up to sing the inauguration's National Anthem, and possible performances by members of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Radio City Rockettes, should they so choose.

If all else fails, perhaps Trump can convince his pal Kanye to drop by.
