Villa was a relatively unknown singer until last year's Grammys.
The singer donned a Make America Great Again dress to the event, which vasty increased her social following and caused controversy across the USA.

Taking to Twitter, Villa said: 'To all survivors of #sexualassault its NOT your fault. It never was, it never will be.'
'You are not to blame, they are. It doesnt matter if you were covered up or showing skin, drinking water or gin, if your famous or unknown.'
