He specifically mentioned payments of $11 million to Beyoncé, $2 million to Oprah Winfrey, and $500,000 to Reverend Al Sharpton, questioning the legality of such transactions. Trump criticized the actions, stating that Beyoncé did not perform, Oprah did little, and referred to Sharpton as a 'third rate Con Man.'
