Just 11 days before the US presidential election, pop superstar Beyoncé attended a rally in Houston supporting Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Beyoncé took the stage at the rally in her hometown of Houston and said she was not here as a celebrity but as a mother.
“I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother, a mother who cares deeply about her children and the future of all our children,” Beyoncé said. Introduced by mother Tina Knowles. She was joined on stage by former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland. Beyoncé told the audience: “It’s time for us to sing a new song. A song that began 248 years ago. “Old voices expressing decline, dissent and despair no longer resonate. “
“Our time is up,” he said. “It’s time for America to sing a new song. Our voices sing a chorus of unity.” Beyoncé later invited Kamala Harris to the stage.
Beyoncé’s appearance at a Kamala Harris rally ended months of speculation about whether the pop icon would support the Democratic candidate. Beyoncé reportedly allowed Harris’ campaign to use her song “Freedom.” The song, which features themes of black female empowerment, has become an anthem for Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign. The 2016 song was also included in Harris’ first campaign.
