Taylor Swift sends heartfelt support to Kamala Harris
Taylor Swift, the pop icon and one of the most influential artists of her generation, has once again expressed her support for Kamala Harris. As "The U.S. Sun" reports, Swift, who has openly supported the Democrats for years, sent Harris a gift to lift her spirits at this significant moment for the country.
Swift first publicly supported Harris during the presidential debate, when the Vice President faced Donald Trump. Trump criticised Harris for allegedly relying on popularity rather than political specifics, but Swift did not hesitate to lend her support.
According to an anonymous source close to the star, the artist sent Harris a "huge bouquet of roses" along with a heartfelt message on election day.
Taylor Swift has supported political causes for years
Swift's support for the current government is not new. In 2020, during Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's election campaign, Swift baked cookies decorated with the phrase "Biden Harris 2020" and encouraged her fans to participate in the election.
Soon after, she published an open letter expressing her support for the vice-presidential candidate, signing it humorously as "childless cat lady". In her statement, she emphasised that she considers Harris "a steady-handed, gifted leader" and noted that "we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos."
Kamala Harris supported by other stars
Harris, a key figure in the Democratic Party, enjoys the support of many celebrities. The campaign's final days were filled with election events featuring stars such as Oprah Winfrey and Lady Gaga. At a rally in Pennsylvania, Lady Gaga appeared alongside Harris, and at another event in Houston, Beyoncé spoke and allowed her song "Freedom" to be used during the campaign.
Trump criticises celebrity support for Harris
Conversely, Donald Trump openly criticises the star-studded support for Harris, suggesting that these actions are merely superficial. At a rally in Pittsburgh, he accused Beyoncé of not performing on stage when Harris spoke and commented on the audience's reaction, claiming that the crowd booed the speech, but the media did not show it. Trump spares no words, emphasising that his campaign focuses on politics rather than celebrity glamour, which he deems superficial.
Taylor Swift supports Harris with the country's future in mind
According to a source close to Swift, the singer believes her symbolic gesture could provide Harris with positive energy on this crucial election day.
The source emphasised that Taylor Swift knows how crucial today is for our country and that Kamala needs all the support and love she can get. The whole day is focused on work, but also on the election results, as we are all aware of the tense situation we are in, the speaker added.
