All the Musicians Supporting Kamala Harris in the 2024 Presidential Election

The Evanescence singer made her support for Harris clear in a video posted to Instagram on Oct. 29. “I will proudly be voting for Kamala Harris for President of the United States,” she tells viewers. “There’s so much at stake this year, from reproductive rights to responsible gun legislation we desperately need, to democracy itself — our right to have a voice in this place. We need an advocate, someone who will listen to us and represent us with honor and integrity. I believe Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will help take our country forward.”

Within an hour of Biden posting his endorsement of Harris, Ariana Grande reshared it on her Instagram Story, and encouraged fans to register to vote by including a link to Headcount’s website.

The Puerto Rican superstar shared his support for VP Harris in a series of Instagram Stories Oct. 27. He reposted a video of the Democratic candidate speaking about what’s at stake for Puerto Rican voters as well as the territory itself. In the video, Harris notes, “I will never forget what Donald Trump did and didn’t do when Puerto Rico needed a caring and competent leader. He abandoned the island, tried to block aid after back-to-back devastating hurricanes and offered nothing more than paper towels and insults.”

Barbra Streisand tweeted a fierce defense of the Biden-Harris administration before stating her endorsement of Harris for 2024. “Trump is a pathological liar who lies as easily as he breathes,” she wrote. “Kamala Harris will continue Joe Biden’s work and will be a great president.”

Queen Bey subtly endorsed Harris by clearing the use of her song “Freedom” during the politician’s first official visit to her campaign headquarters on July 22, 2024. CNN confirmed that the superstar was quick to give her approval, giving the green light to use the track for her campaign just hours before Harris walked out.

Three days later, the Democratic front-runner used the song in her first campaign video.

Then, just a week and a half before Election Day, Beyoncé stood beside Vice President Harris and former Destiny’s Child co-star Kelly Rowland to voice her unequivocal support for the Harris-Walz campaign. “It’s time to sing a new song. A song that began 248 years ago,” she said during Harris’ Oct. 25 Houston rally. “Our moment is right now. It’s time for America to sing a new song. Our voices sing a song of unity. They sing a song of dignity and opportunity. Are y’all ready to add your voice to the new American song? Because I am. So let’s do this. Ladies and gentlemen, let’s give a big, loud Texas welcome to the next president of the United States, Vice President Kamala Harris.”

On National Voter Registration Day 2024, Billie Eilish and Finneas urged fans to vote for Harris to win against “extremists” and “the dangerous Project 2025 agenda.”

“We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy,” the “Bad Guy” singer says. “Vote like your life depends on it,” Eilish adds in the clip. “Because it does.”

The Grateful Dead rocker took to Instagram on Monday (Oct. 28) to share a photo of himself wearing a Dead-inspired Harris-Walz 2024 shirt, alongside a snap of Walz holding the tee and another with his wife, Natascha Münter, holding up a Harris sign. “Well, OK, I guess it all depends on your worldview; you can see your place in the world as something to defend from those who might want to take some or all of it from you—or you can see it as a grand adventure, a place to make dreams come to fruition for yourself and for others,” he wrote in the caption.

“There is, of course, an in-between place—but the more you lean toward the grand adventure side, the clearer the choice becomes,” he continued. “More good comes from focusing on building a world where disparities aren’t so pronounced that they cause friction and reducing the inequalities that create barriers. With these things in mind, I’ve done my research and come to the clear conclusion that I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and @TimWalz this time around.”

As first reported by Billboard on Aug. 7, Bon Iver signed on to perform at Harris’ campaign-trail stop in Eau Claire, Wisc., where the two-time Grammy-winning band was founded.

Bruce Springsteen took to social media on Thursday (Oct. 3) to officially announce that in the upcoming presidential election, he will be voting for the Kamala Harris and Tim Walz ticket. See his post via Instagram here.

As she’d be quick to remind you, Cardi B was for Harris well before Biden even dropped out. In June, she told followers on a livestream, “I feel like it was very selfish of Biden … to continue to run for President,”

“They should’ve passed the torch to Kamala,” she added at the time. “This was the perfect moment for her.”

Following Biden’s withdrawal, the rapper boasted on Instagram: “STOP PLAYING WIT ME!!!! been told y’all Kamala should’ve been the 2024 candidate. Y’all be trying to play the Bronx education, baby this what I do!!!”

After staunchly standing by Biden up until he announced the end of his candidacy, Carole King was quick to voice support for Harris. “Right person. Right time,” she wrote, sharing a past photo of her posing with the new Democratic front-runner.

In August, King also 34,000 Taylor Swift fans on a Swifties for Kamala virtual call, where she encouraged voters to volunteer for the campaign and sang a snippet of “Shake It Off.”

Charli XCX got involved by simply tweeting “kamala IS brat,” catalyzing one of the Harris campaign’s first online initiatives: opening a Harris HQ page on X and making its banner image a spoof of the British pop star’s Brat album cover.

The iconic musician shared her endorsement of Harris in a video on Oct. 18. “I have followed Kamala Harris since she was my U.S. senator,” the singer said of the VP, who represented California in the senate. “She fought for me then and she is fighting for all of us now. That’s why I’m proudly voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. I know they will fight to protect our rights, and I’m so grateful to be able to make my voice count this year. I hope you will too.”

Demi Lovato reposted Biden’s endorsement of Harris on Instagram Stories and wrote, “Let’s do this!!” before sharing a photo she previously snapped with the VP. The singer-actress later showed off a mirror selfie on Nov. 3 in which she pointed to the “I Voted” sticker on her Kamala Harris T-shirt on Instagram Stories.

The reggaeton superstar, who was born in Puerto Rico, shared his support for the VP in an Instagram post Oct. 29. “Puerto Rico is my homeland and my identity, and today more than ever, I raise my island’s flag with pride,” he began his message, which was written in Spanish. “With only one week until the election, let’s make sure our voices are heard loud and clear. This is why I’m supporting Kamala Harris. I trust she represents the respect and change our communities need and I believe she can pave a new path forward — one that uplifts, empowers and prioritizes dignity for all. It’s time to turn the page. We are not going back.”

His message also referred to the racist comment Tony Hinchcliffe made during Donald Trump’s rally on Oct. 27, when the comedian called the U.S. territory a “floating island of garbage.” Added the singer, “Words have weight, and as a community, we cannot tolerate language that seeks to devalue us. Latinos, both on and off our native lands, deserve respect and fair representation.”

The Oscar-winning rapper — who has long been vocal about his opposition to Donald Trump — introduced former president Barack Obama at the Harris-Walz rally held in Detroit on Oct. 22. “I … think that people shouldn’t be afraid to express their opinions, and I don’t think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution or what people will do if you make your opinion known,” said Eminem. “I think that VP Harris supports a future for this country where these freedoms and many others will be protected and upheld.”

Watch his speech.

After learning that the twice impeached former president had used their hit “My Hero” during the Republican nominee’s Aug. 23 rally in Arizona, the band confirmed on X that they had not given him permission to do so. “Foo Fighters were not asked permission, and if they were, they would not have granted it,” a spokesperson also told Billboard of the unauthorized usage. What’s more, the rep added, “appropriate actions are being taken” against the campaign.

But that wasn’t all. The spokesperson added to Billboard that any royalties earned as a result of the Trump campaign’s use of “My Hero” would be donated to the Harris-Walz campaign.

In an Oct. 28 Instagram video, the rapper reminded fans to go cast their ballots shared four reasons why people should cast their vote for the VP. Among them? “A woman’s right to choose and “protect the LGBTQIA+ community.”

Watch her TikTok below:

The singer-songwriter is set for the Harris-Walz rally in Madison, Wisc., on Oct. 30. In sharing the news of her appearance, the artist shared a poster for the event and captioned it on Instagram, “HEY WISCONSIN! See you Wednesday @kamalaharris @thenational @aarondessner @marcusmumford @mumfordandsons @remiwolf 💙LET’S GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The musician headed to the polls on Halloween and shared that he had cast his ballot for Harris. “i loved voting for kamala today,” he tweeted.

Weeks after commending Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 race, Isbell also said yes to performing at the DNC.

James Taylor also stepped up to the plate to perform at the DNC in support of the Harris-Walz ticket in August, though his planned Monday night performance ended up being cut for time. He addressed being bumped from the lineup in a statement shared on X the following day.

“It became clear as the evening unfolded, that there wouldn’t be time for our ‘You’ve Got a Friend’ with cello and voices,” Taylor wrote in part. “Maybe the organizers couldn’t anticipate the wild response from the floor of the United Center… Anyway, sorry to disappoint. But a great and inspiration, quintessentially American moment. We were honored to be there.”

J. Lo made her support for the VP even louder in a series of Instagram Stories on Oct. 27 after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating pile of garbage” while speaking at Trump’s campaign event at New York City’s Madison Square Garden that day. In addition to sharing a video of Harris speaking about what’s at stake for Puerto Rican voters, the singer-actress shared the Harris-Walz campaign’s policy on rebuilding the U.S. territory’s economy, tagging the sitting VP as well as the campaign.

The rapper and producer set the record straight in a lengthy Instagram reel on Aug. 24. “Let’s be clear: I am with Kamala Harris. Let’s be clear,” he told viewers after some believed he had been critical of the Democratic presidential nominee.

“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 message shared to Instagram following Biden’s endorsement of his VP. “She’s ready for this fight and I’m excited to help her in any way I can.”

Later, the singer-songwriter performed Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy” with Sheila E. at the DNC.

The rocker endorsed the VP in an Oct. 11 Instagram post featuring “The People’s House,” Bon Jovi’s collab with The War and Treaty. “The truth matters. And the truth is on election day I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and @TimWalz because I believe in the power of we, not of me,” he wrote. “I’ve written a song reminding us that out of many, we are still one.”

Katy Perry indicated her support for Harris by resharing a fan edit of the politician paired with the singer’s 2024 single “Woman’s World” on her Story. Then on Nov. 3, the Harris-Walz campaign announced that the singer would be performing at the Pittsburgh rally. The following day, the musician shared a video to her social media accounts, showing herself with the VP. “Hi guys! I’m with my favorite senator,” she says as Harris smiles behind her. “This is Kamala Harris, she’s gonna be … well,” the singer says with a raised eyebrow before the politician chimes in, “I’m just a fan!”

The Destiny’s Child member appeared alongside Bey at Harris’ Houston rally on Oct. 25. “When I was a little girl and I pledged allegiance to the United States of America, that meant something to me — that flag meant something to me,” she said during her impassioned speech. “And today, that means grabbing that pen, and casting my vote — as I already did two days ago — for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”

In a brief interview on her way into LAX, Kesha slammed JD Vance over his 2021 comments calling Democrats “childless cat ladies,” which resurfaced after Trump appointed the Ohio senator his 2024 running mate.

“F–k that man,” she said in the video obtained by TMZ, noting that she’s “absolutely” supporting Harris. “We ride.”

The Harris-Walz campaign announced on Nov. 3 that Mother Monster would be appearing at the Philadelphia rally on Election Day eve. Gaga herself also shared a video posted to her social media accounts, telling fans, “It’s time to get ready to vote! I’ll see you guys in Pennsylvania!” Written over the video was “Harris [U.S. flag emoji] Walz 2024!!”

Lance Bass made his allegiance clear when he appeared in one of Harris’ first TikTok videos. “Hey Kamala, what are we gonna say to Donald Trump in November?” he asks the VP in the clip, to which she responds with an *NSYNC lyric: “Bye, bye, bye!”

Lil Jon made a surprise appearance at night 2 of the DNC on Aug. 20 to help share the Georgia delegates’ votes for Harris in during roll call. “Ladies and gentlemen, we are here tonight to officially nominate Kamala Harris for president,” he yelled upon entering the arena to his and DJ Snake’s 2013 hit “Turn Down for What.” “Fire up that loud, another round of shots/ DNC, turn down for what!”

“Ur seat is ready madam president,” Lil Nas X tweeted on the day of Biden’s campaign end. “lock in lil bro! @KamalaHarris”

In a blistering letter posted on Instagram, Sept. 11, one day after the presidential debate, Ronstadt slammed Trump and JD Vance. “I don’t just deplore his toxic politics, his hatred of women, immigrants and people of color, his criminality, dishonesty and ignorance — although there’s that,” she wrote in part, noting that she considers his border policies a “humanitarian catastrophe.” “Trump first ran for President warning about rapists coming in from Mexico. I’m worried about keeping the rapist out of the White House.”

But she wasn’t done there. In the post — which included a photo of herself with her cat — the musician slammed the Republican VP nominee as well while endorsing Harris-Walz in the post script. “I raised two adopted children in Tucson as a single mom. They are both grown and living in their own houses. I live with a cat. Am I half a childless cat lady because I’m unmarried and didn’t give birth to my kids?” she asked, referring to his viral comments about Democrats in 2021. “Call me what you want, but this cat lady will be voting proudly in November for @kamalaharris and @timwalz.”

After Tony Hinchcliffe made a racist comment about Puerto Rico being a “floating island of garbage” during Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden, the musician-filmmaker spoke out. “There are people for whom this is fine, it’s just a bad joke, lighten up. For many of us, this ‘joke’ is a reminder of how bad it was under Trump, how he treated our people in our moment of need,” he wrote in a social media post on Oct. 28. “How you vote is between you and your conscience. I’m too cynical to believe any hearts and minds are changing at this late stage of the race. I just hope that enough of us don’t want to go backwards, to tip back into this existence. I am voting for VP Kamala Harris. If you are eligible to vote, please vote.”

Lizzo was one of the first to voice support for Harris following Biden’s departure from the race, posting a video on Instagram defending 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,” she said in the clip.

“The vice president’s job is to take a back seat and support while the president does everything that’s forward-facing,” the hitmaker added. “Let’s all be for real and say our quiet parts out loud, because the discourse is tired.”

The Puerto Rican singer shared a video on his Instagram Stories of Kamala Harris talking about the U.S. territory being home to some of the “most talented, innovative and ambitious people in our nation” and how she sees and would invest in that strength. Shortly after posting the clip, he shared a text message on IG Stories blasting comedian Tony Hinchcliffe saying during Trump’s Oct. 27 rally that Puerto Rico was a “floating island of garbage.”

“I understand comedy, I’m a big fan of it. I love roasts … BUT….this is far from comedy. Not now, not against my island, my people. Hell nah!” he wrote, noting that he respects different views, but that racism should not be acceptable. “It’s been abundantly clear that these people have no respect for us and yet they want our vote. Oh yeah, and I purposely wrote this in English cause yes, we’re American too.” He ended his message with a reminder to go vote.

The Queen of Pop made no secret about who she was voting for in the 2024 presidential election. In a Halloween carousel shared on Instagram, Madonna noted that she had recently enjoyed Paris, ending her message with, “V.O.T.E. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 @kamalaharris For. President!!!!”

During Vice President Harris’ rally in Ann Arbor, Mich., singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers took to the stage to perform a number of her biggest hits for the crowd (including “Light On” and “Different Kind of World”). Throughout her performance, Rogers made it clear that she would be casting her ballot for Harris, and urged the audience to do the same. “I have to face the reality of what’s happening in the next eight days. To tell you the complete truth, it’s terrifying,” she told the crowd. “These are such wild and unprecedented times, and the energy feels so high, and the future feels so uncertain and I don’t always know what to do with that feeling. But there is something to me that is greater than fear — and that’s action. All of you being here today, right now, and voting. Voting is the key to the future.”

Maren Morris has long been vocal about her liberal viewpoints, and on the third day of the DNC, she fully embraced the Harris-Walz campaign by performing her protest song, “Better Than We Found It,” on the United Center stage Aug. 21.

The Puerto Rican artist shared his support for the sitting VP in an ad launched on Oct. 18.

“This election goes way beyond political parties. Let’s remember what the United States represents and stands for: UNITED,” he said. “That’s why I support Kamala Harris for president.”

In addition to supporting the Democratic candidate, the singer also slammed former president Trump. “I remember what he did and said about Puerto Rico, about our people. I remember after Hurricane Maria devastated our island, Trump blocked billions in relief while thousands died. I remember when our families lacked clean water and electricity, Trump threw paper towels and called Puerto Rico ‘dirty and poor,’” he said. “I was not surprised. Because I also remember he launched his campaign by calling Latinos ‘criminals’ and ‘rapists.’ He told us what he’ll do. He’ll separate children from their families, and threaten to use the Army to do it.”

Maxwell showed his support for Harris by tweeting a photo of them — his arm around her shoulder, both of them beaming — and simply writing, “congratulations to @vp -@kamalaharris.”

Megan Thee Stallion contributed not just her endorsement, but also her talent to Harris’ campaign by signing on to perform at the politician’s July 30 rally in Atlanta.

While there, she also filmed a TikTok with Harris backstage.

Mickey Guyton proved her support for Harris by signing on to perform at the Democratic National Convention in August.

Moby made his support of Harris known by tweeting, “I am so excited at the idea of racist misogynistic Trump losing to a black woman.”

The National’s Instagram account shared news of Dessner and Berninger’s participation at the Oct. 30 Harris-Walz rally in Madison, Wisc.

The rocker, who has previously been clear he’s no fan of Trump’s, shared his endorsement of the VP in a post on his Website on Oct. 11. “She is an honest forthright truth teller who is experienced in the White House, free from ambiguity or evasiveness, who goes straight to the point,” he wrote. “Clear headed, young enough to hold the office for a couple of bright future terms, Kamala Harris is a good person who is unafraid to take on criminals and uphold the law of the USA. She’s my candidate for the future of this country.”

After Doug Emhoff, who is married to Harris, used New Radicals’ “You Get What You Give” as his “walk on song” at the Democratic National Convention, Gregg Alexander penned a letter — which Billboard exclusively shared — endorsing the Democratic ticket and announcing that the rock band would be releasing its first music in 25 years “to support the fight for freedom.”

That music turned out to be a song called “Lost Stars” and a cover of Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dance Floor,” which Alexander co-wrote. “The time is clearly NOW for all to jump in and use whatever influence for the greater good and endorse the candidate who doesn’t weirdly’ (love that Coach Walz!) advocate taking away women’s rights and everyone’s freedoms,” he added in his letter.

Though he’s mostly known for his acting, Nick Offerman went the musical route when voicing his support for Harris. The Parks and Recreation alum put together a parody song taking jabs at Trump while praising the Democratic nominee, featuring lyrics like, “Kamala’s got momentum, and that lady she’s no quitter/ Plus, she never hid nuclear secrets in the Mar-a-Lago s–tter.”

Olivia Rodrigo shared her support for Harris — specifically her stance on abortion — by reposting a video of the politician emphasizing the importance of reproductive healthcare in a campaign speech on the singer’s Instagram Story. The pop star, who’s been a vocal advocate for abortion access, added four hands-raised emojis to the clip.

As exclusively confirmed by Billboard, Patti Labelle joined in on the DNC fun by agreeing to perform on the second day of the 2024 convention. Just a couple months prior, she embraced the Biden-Harris administration by performing at the White House’s Juneteenth concert. 

After supporting Harris’ campaign with posts on social media, Pink joined the brigade of musicians contributing performances to the 2024 DNC. Hers was set for the final day (Aug. 22), when the current VP accepts the Democratic presidential nomination.

Quavo proudly backed Harris by speaking at her campaign’s first rally, which took place in Atlanta. “If you’ve never voted before, make sure you get out and vote right now, ’cause this the real one,” he told the crowd before paying tribute to his late nephew and Migos bandmate. “And in the words of my brother Takeoff, let me get a ‘Kamala!’”

Hours after Biden dropped out, Questlove posted a photo of him meeting Harris and wrote, “Absolute. 100 percent. Unequivocal Support.”

“Do not cut off the nose to spite the face,” he continued in a passionate message about the importance of voting. “I know it’s exhausting. I know it’s inconvenient———but y’all need to get some FIGHT in you. This drowning in self pity, throwing in the towel, giving up, talking/posting/IG-ing from the sidelines is not the energy needed.”

The singer-songwriter shared Gracie Abram’s Instagram post about participating in the Oct. 30 rally in Madison, Wisc., via her own Instagram stories.

The Grammy winner shared the same video of Harris speaking about what’s at stake for Puerto Rico that J. Lo did, as well as a clip of Tony Hinchcliffe calling the territory a “floating island of garbage” at Trump’s Oct. 27 rally, with the musician captioning the video with “This is what they think of us” in Spanish. Martin also shared the Hinchcliffe video in his grid, but shared in a Story with a screenshot of the post in his grid with the message, “They are shadow banning this post. Its not coming out of my feed.”

Talk about a plot twist. One year after the rapper said on the This Past Weekend podcast that the U.S. needed Trump back in the White House, she tweeted on Nov. 1 that she had actually cast her ballot for the sitting VP this time around. “I just voted!!! Don’t tell us what to do with our coochies!! #Kamala4President” she tweeted along with two photos of “I Voted” stickers on her behind.

Shortly after Swift shared her endorsement, Stevie Nicks followed suit. “As my friend @taylorswift so eloquently stated, now is the time to research and choose the candidate that speaks to you and your beliefs,” she wrote on Instagram, sharing a photo with her pup and signing off, “Childless Dog Lady.”

Stevie Wonder made a moving speech in favor of Harris on the third day of the DNC before performing “Higher Ground” from his 1973 album, Innervisions. “This is a moment to tell your children where you were and what you did,” he told the crowd. “When we stand between history’s pain and tomorrows promises we must choose courage complacency.”

Immediately after the Sept. 10 presidential debate between Harris and Trump, Swift shared what fans had been waiting for — her endorsement of the VP. “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” the pop superstar wrote in part in an 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.”

Her message of support arrived alongside a photo of herself with her cat Benjamin Button, a not-so-subtle nod to Republican VP nominee JD Vance’s previous viral 2021 statement criticizing notable Democrats as “a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.”

Beyoncé’s mom Tina Knowles sang Harris’ praises after Biden’s endorsement, sharing a photo of the two women on Instagram. “New, Youthful, Sharp,” the mogul wrote. “Go Vice President Kamala Harris for President. Let’s Go ❤️❤️❤️❤️ #kamala2024”

Will.i.am not only endorsed Kamala Harris, he wrote a song about it. On Nov. 3, the musician dropped a tune called “Yes She Can,” a reworking of his 2008 track supporting Barack Obama. “So register and vote for your life/ Do it for your daughters and your sons and your wife,” he sings on the track. “If you a woman then vote for your rights/ And don’t let them take away your rights/ We could be better than we ever been/ We about to have a woman president.”
