BREAKING: Kennedy Center demands $1 million from musician Chuck Redd. Redd cancelled his Christmas Eve performance after the venue was renamed the Trump Kennedy Center.

Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell accuses Redd of a "political stunt." Grenell claims the cancellation cost the non-profit institution considerably.

Trump replaced the Kennedy Center's board members with allies. The new board then voted to make Trump chairman.

Redd has not yet responded to the demand for payment. The Kennedy Center cites poor ticket sales as a contributing factor to the financial loss.

This is a developing story.
