Celebrities Who Are Endorsing Kamala Harris For President
Earlier this year, President Joe Biden officially dropped out of the upcoming election, paving the way for Vice President Kamala Harris to join the race. While much of Hollywood had hesitated to endorse Biden in his run for a second term, Harris' decision to step up marked a turning point for democrats around the nation. Over the course of the past few months, numerous celebrities have shown their support for Harris by publicly giving her their official enforcement, offering financial contributions and attending rallies. In fact, many stars even stepped out for the Democratic National Convention, taking the stage and giving performances. While not all celebs have spoken out just yet, a large majority are giving their support to Harris. Here are just a few of the celebrities who have endorsed Kamala Harris… 1. Taylor Swift Taylor Swift has spoken about her political opinions in the past so fans had long been waiting for her to endorse a presidential candidate. While she had remained quiet, her likeness was used to falsely endorse Trump using AI. Following the first debate, Taylor knew she had to speak out and finally gave her official endorsement to Harris -- referring to herself as a “Childless Cat Lady.” “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Taylor wrote in her Instagram post. “I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos.” She added, “I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.” 2. Billie Eilish & Finneas Billie Eilish and her musical partner and brother Finneas recently endorsed Harris on National Voter Registration Day. In an Instagram video, they urged fans to vote against “extremists” and “the dangerous Project 2025 agenda” in order to fight for “our freedoms” and “our future.” “We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy,” Billie said in their video. “Vote like your life depends on it because it does.” 3. George Clooney George Clooney has long been a supporter of Harris, especially after attending a political fundraiser in June 2024 when President Biden was still running. The following month, he published an op-ed expressing concern about Biden’s campaign, explaining that he was “not the Joe ‘big f--king deal’ Biden of 2010” any longer and needed to drop out of the race. When Biden made the choice to step back, George enthusiastically showed his support for Harris’ decision to run. “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,” he said in a statement. 4. John Legend In July 2024, John Legend officially endorsed Harris after commending President Biden for all of his accomplishments in the White House. He wrote that while Biden had made great strides during his time as president, he was “grateful for the grace and patriotism” in his decision to step down. “I’m so ready to work to help unite the pro-democracy coalition to reject Trump’s authoritarian, oppressive Project 2025 and elect Kamala Harris as our President,” John Legend wrote in a statement. “She’s ready for this fight and I’m excited to help her in any way I can.” 5. Ariana Grande Ariana Grande made her political alignments known just hours after Biden shared his endorsement for Harris. She re-shared the post on her Instagram story and then included a link to Headcount’s website, encouraging fans to register to vote. 6. Beyoncé Beyoncé quietly showed her support for Harris when she allowed her song “Freedom” to be used in one of the presidential candidate’s first campaign videos. In the vid, Harris could be seen visiting her campaign office for the first time on July 22, 2024. CNN later confirmed that Beyoncé and her team, who are typically very strict with music clearances, had given permission for Harris to use the song. 7. Olivia Rodrigo Olivia Rodrigo offered her endorsement to Harris in July 2024 when she shared a video of the current vice president giving an empowered speech. In the clip, Harris discussed restoring reproductive rights should she win the presidency. Olivia’s support makes sense, considering she launched her own global initiative, Fund 4 Good, in order to champion girls’ education and reproductive rights. 8. Lizzo Lizzo was an early supporter of Harris’ campaign for the presidency, sharing a video where she condemned people who thought Harris hadn’t accomplished anything in the White House thus far. The

“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,” she said in an Instagram video.

“In the name of democracy, @JoeBiden did a brave and bold thing. I’m tremendously grateful for his years of service - and I am awed by his selfless leadership,” Kerry wrote. “Make no mistake. Our fight now remains EXACTLY the same. We must do everything we can to prevent another Trump presidency and an authoritarian government. @KamalaHarris can and will win this! I believe in her and I believe in us. Let’s gooooooooooooo!”

“Let’s just say Donald Trump is a successful businessman, which I don’t think he is, is it because he’s been an honest businessman, or is it because he’s a conman?” Joseph said. “I think that’s really, really obvious. This guy is a conman, of course he is. Look at his past business careers -- he’s consistently screwed over his customers, his tenants, his employees. Look at his past presidency, where his signature program was cutting taxes for rich people. Conman.”

21. Pink
Pink has always been incredibly liberal so it’s no surprise she supports Harris in her run for president. She even took the stage during the Democratic National Convention to perform her song “What About Us” alongside her young daughter.
“I’m so inspired. We can do this, we can fight, we can get our asses kicked, we can get in the ring,” Pink said during the White Women: Answer The Call rally. “We are in this … and I’m just really grateful that us women are going to have a voice, and we’ve always made our voices heard, and now it’s time to just get extra loud. Let’s go. Let’s get loud.”

We are family though disparate in nature, we truly want and DESERVE those inalienable rights we’ve been fighting for all these years. we can’t go back. We won’t go back!”
