The presidential elections in the USA are approaching rapidly, and Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have practically equal chances of winning. Unsurprisingly, both political camps seek support from renowned personalities whose presence at their rallies could help garner a few votes. Now, Jennifer Lopez has given her support to the former.

Lopez, impeccably styled, appeared at Harris's rally in Nevada, encouraging voters to cast their votes for her. The ladies exchanged courtesies on stage, and the star addressed the crowd. She did not hold back from making critical comments about Kamala's main opponent, who recently made shocking remarks about Puerto Ricans at his rally.
It wasn't just Puerto Ricans who were offended that day, it was every Latino in this country,' she said, referring to MAGA-aligned comic Tony Hinchcliffe calling the U.S. territory a 'floating island of garbage.' 'It was humanity and anyone of decent character. I am Puerto Rican. 'And yes I was born here and we are Americans,' Lopez said to cheers. 'You can't even spell American without Rican - she emphasised.
Let us remind you that Lopez is referring to the controversial statement made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who, at Trump's rally in New York, called Puerto Rico a "floating island of rubbish". This sparked so much emotion that even Trump's staff distanced themselves from those words. The actress appealed to voters to choose someone who would unite rather than divide.
Whether you're from Castle Hill in the Bronx or Sunrise Manor in East Las Vegas, we all want a world where our kids feel safe and free and valued by their president - she spoke to the gathered crowd. I am a mother, I am a sister, I am an actor and an entertainer,' she proclaimed. 'And I like Hollywood endings. And I like when the good guy, or in this case, the good girl, wins. And with an understanding of our past and a faith in our future, I will be casting my ballot for Kamala Harris for president of the United States.
