She has already made history as the first Black and Asian woman to be selected as Vice
President of the USA. But Kamala Harris has taken another step forward and will now compete for her
country's leadership spot. When we fight, we win. Many stars quickly rallied to publicly support
Harris. From Drew Barrymore and Cardi B to George Clooney and Mark Hamill, we've gathered the celebs
who've shown their approval of the VP's candidacy. Kamala is just so certainly our girl.
Get ready to learn the details. When Joe Biden finally decided not to run for another term,
he backed his favorite, Kamala Harris, as the Democratic Party's nominee. And guess what?
The response from Hollywood has been overwhelming. Just hours after the news,
celebs rushed to show their support. Barbara Streisand, Rosie O'Donnell, Cher,
Jamie Lee Curtis. All these big names are with Harris. Let's go win this. Follow, share, hype.
Kamala Harris, we have your back. This list also includes Octavia Spencer,
Mandy Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Jeff Bridges, and many others.
I'm white, I'm a dude, and I'm for Harris. I'm excited, man. A woman president, man.
How exciting.

When she wins, we win.
This actress advocates for more public endorsements to shape the future of the country.
Sometimes when you find your voice, you gotta use it to make a difference,
because one voice can speak volumes for many.
Within an hour of Biden endorsing Harris, Ariana Grande re-shared the news on her Instagram story
and urged her fans to register to vote. Demi Lovato also jumped in to show her support right
away. The singer encouraged her fans to donate to the Democratic Party. And get this — within
just one day, Harris raised over $50 million, a number that quickly soared past $200 million.
A few days after Kamala confirmed her candidacy, there was a public Zoom call with 164,000 people,
featuring actress Connie Britton, author Glennon Doyle,
athletes Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird, and singer Pink.
I'm so inspired. We can do this. We can fight. We can get our asses kicked. We can get in the ring.
Beyoncé immediately gave the green light for Harris to use her track,
Freedom, on the 2024 campaign trail. Just three days later, the Democratic frontrunner
featured the song in her first video and later played it at a rally in Milwaukee.
God bless you.
While Queen Bey has yet to make a public statement,
her mom has been very supportive of Kamala on social media.
Tina Knowles first shared a photo of herself with the presidential candidate.
Go Vice President Kamala Harris for president. Let's go.
And then began posting archived videos comparing Harris to fellow candidate Donald Trump.
Another celebrity who supported Kamala on social media
is Lizzo. She fiercely defended the former prosecutor from criticism.
For everyone saying that Kamala Harris didn't do anything when she was VP,
please, for $5,000, do not use Google. Tell me what any vice president has
ever done during their term that was notable that you noticed.
Meanwhile, Cardi B backed Harris even before Biden withdrew his candidacy.
Early this summer, she went live on Instagram and told her followers,
I feel like it was very selfish of Biden to continue to run for president.
They should have passed the torch to Kamala. Like, this was the perfect moment for her,
for a Black woman to run for president.
It seems like the celebrity is now excited about this development.
So is Olivia Rodrigo, who reposted the clip on her Instagram page.
We'll stop Donald Trump's extreme abortion bans because
we trust women to make decisions about their own body.
The pop star has always been a strong advocate for reproductive rights and access to abortion.
Another singer, Katy Perry, shared stories of Kamala's 2023 speech
and added her new single, Woman's World, to them.
You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?
By the way, Kamala's coconut tree story went viral among young people.
In fact, she was quoting her mom.
She would say to us, I don't know what's wrong with you young people.
You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?
You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.
You might have noticed that Harris often shares stories from her life.
It actually works to her advantage.
Her quotes spread across social media in all kinds of content.
You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?
Dance.
Well, Harris' laugh also went viral on TikTok.
Even Trump has mentioned it in his speeches.
Kamala, I call her laughing Kamala. You ever watch her laugh? She's crazy.
You know, you can tell a lot by her laugh. No, she's crazy. She's nuts.
Probably one of the most talked-about stories involves Charli XCX.
The celebrity tweeted,
"'Kamala is brat,' and it literally blew up online."
Apparently, it was a reference to the singer's hit new album,
Brat. While the word might have a negative connotation for some,
for Gen Z, it's definitely a compliment to describe someone particularly sassy.
The Harris team responded immediately and creatively.
They went full brat by changing the campaign account's color to lime green on X,
matching Charli's hit record.
It's already being said that Kamala is attracting a younger audience this way,
which is crucial since Biden had struggled with that.
Another big plus for Kamala, according to experts,
is her frequent appearances on various shows.
Americans want to see politicians be real, actual, normal human beings.
I think that's why these interviews resonate.
For instance, she recently visited Jimmy Kimmel and had a candid chat with Drew Barrymore in April.
By the way, during that appearance, the actress seemed to hint, perhaps not so subtly,
that she'd like to see Harris as president.
I keep thinking in my head that we all need a mom. I've been thinking that we
really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now. But in our country,
we need you to be Momala of the country.
Why Momala? That's what Kamala's stepkids call her.
A few years ago, the presidential candidate also appeared on several cooking shows,
including one hosted by actress Mindy Kaling.
All the Indian spices, and he put them in the Taster's Choice jars,
and this is exactly what my mother would do.
Recently, this video has become a hot topic of discussion, and here's why.
Trump posted a snippet showing Kaling and Harris making masala dosa together.
In the clip, they discuss their South Indian heritage.
Vice President has Indian and Jamaican roots.
By sharing this, the former president attempted to justify his recent claims that Harris just
happened to be Black.
She was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn, and she went,
she became a Black person.
Even more celebrities sided with Kamala after the Trump aide's statement.
We're talking about this resurfaced 2021 quote from vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance.
We're effectively run in this country by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are
miserable at their own lives, and it's just a basic fact.
You look at Kamala Harris.
As known, Harris doesn't have any kids of her own.
Vance's harsh comments sparked outrage.
Jennifer Aniston, in particular, condemned him.
All I can say is, Mr. Vance,
I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day.
In her emotional speech, Lady Gaga also urged fans not to vote for Trump,
saying he belittles women for no reason.
Now is your chance to vote against Donald Trump,
a man who believes his fame gives him the right to grab one of your daughters,
or sisters, or mothers, or wives by any part of their bodies.
But it's not just the female stars rallying for a woman president.
Ardent Trump critic John Legend also, as expected,
publicly voiced his support for Kamala.
Additionally, the singer stated that he was ready to assist her in any way.
I like to use my position as a singer, as an artist, to mobilize people for political change.
In late July, prominent figures joined a Zoom call titled
White Dudes for Harris.
Notable men, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Mark Hamill, and Sean Astin,
allied for backing a female presidential contender.
Also, quick observation, they have Kid Rock, Kevin Sorbo, and a Dolphin aficionado,
and we have the Hulk, Samwise Gamgee, Luke Skywalker, and Mayor Pete just on this Zoom.
That's pretty damn cool.
During that conversation, they raised about $4 million for the Harris campaign.
Another interesting example involves George Clooney.
The actor previously wrote a column urging Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 race.
He reached this conclusion after hosting a fundraiser for the president
alongside Julia Roberts and Barack Obama.
It's devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago
was not the Joe big f— deal Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020.
He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.
George Clooney was pivotal in getting to the point where Biden decided to drop out.
What George Clooney was saying, basically, was, we need to recast you.
When Joe finally decided to step down, Clooney did not hold back his positive emotions.
President Biden has shown what true leadership is. He's saving democracy once again.
We're all so excited to do whatever we can to support Vice President Harris in her historic quest.
The events unfolding now are indeed historic,
and more and more celebrities are taking Kamala Harris' side.
Now the fans are eagerly waiting to hear what Taylor Swift has to say about it.
After all, whether she's for or against,
the opinion of the world's most popular singer could change the entire picture.
I need to be on the right side of history.
And what's your opinion on Kamala Harris? With so much public support,
do you think she has a chance of winning? Let us know in the comments.
