GoFundMe Set to Help Loose Ends Singer Jane Eugene – She’s Facing Deportation After 26-Year Visa Overstay
Jane Eugene Detained by ICE, Faces Possible U.S. Deportation
*British R&B legend Jane Eugene, lead singer of Loose Ends, is in danger of being deported from the United States. She was reportedly detained by ICE after overstaying a visa that expired 26 years ago.
The news first broke on May 13, 2025, when EURweb reported that Eugene was being held in an ICE detention facility near the Canadian border. She has since been transferred to a facility in Kentucky.
Supporters Rally Behind Jane Eugene With Legal Fund
A GoFundMe has been launched to help cover Jane’s legal fees, medical needs, and possible bail. The campaign urges fans and supporters to donate, describing her as a pillar of the music world and community.
The organizers say Jane’s health is rapidly deteriorating behind bars. She’s unable to work or earn income, making outside support critical to her survival and legal defense.
Immigration Law Could Offer a Path to Stay
Jane may qualify for protection under Section 245(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. This allows certain undocumented immigrants who applied for a green card before 2001 to adjust their status—even with a visa overstay.
Jane Eugene’s Legacy in Music and Community
Jane Eugene rose to fame as the voice behind Loose Ends hits like “Hangin’ on a String” and “Slow Down.” Her influence shaped genres like neo-soul, house, and hip-hop over the decades.
Off stage, she’s known for mentoring young artists and supporting underserved communities. Supporters say she’s more than a singer—she’s a healer, activist, and role model.
GoFundMe Urges Fans to Be Jane’s Lifeline
Jane’s GoFundMe page describes the conditions in ICE custody as “extremely challenging.” The fundraiser says every dollar will go directly to her legal defense and basic living needs.
“Jane’s music has been the soundtrack for many lives—now let’s be her lifeline,” the campaign states. Supporters are asked to stand for compassion, community, and fair treatment.
Community Voices Call for Justice and Compassion
Jane’s case has struck a chord with fans, musicians, and immigration advocates alike. Many are calling her detention a tragedy for someone who’s contributed so much to American culture.
Though the courts are backed up and her timeline is unclear, her supporters remain hopeful. With legal help and enough funding, Jane could still avoid deportation and remain in the country she calls home.
According to her team, Jane is “grandfathered” in under this provision and wants to fight deportation using every legal remedy available. If she is deported, she could be banned from returning to the U.S. for 10 years.
