Ariana Grande Applauds Megan Thee Stallion for Encouraging People to Vote for Kamala Harris

Ariana Grande and Megan Thee Stallion may have collaborated on “34+35,” but their stance on whether people should vote in the upcoming election is as simple as 1+1.

Shortly after the “WAP” rapper opened up to Billboard in her September cover story about the importance of acting on one’s American civic duty — especially in a presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump — Grande shared her onetime collaborator’s remarks on Instagram Stories. “I adore @theestallion,” the pop star wrote, tagging Meg.

The “We Can’t Be Friends” singer also shared a link to her Headcount page, reminding fans, “register here please.”

Both Grande and the Houston Hottie have been vocal in their support of Harris since she took over President Joe Biden’s place on the Democratic ticket. While the Wicked actress has advocated for the cause on social media, Meg performed at the VP’s rally in Atlanta and sang the politician’s praises during her headlining set at Lollapalooza.

The “Mamushi” artist went on to stress her support of Harris while speaking to Billboard, adding that she thinks it’s “irresponsible” to abstain from voting in an election with such high stakes. “I don’t like it when I see people saying, ‘I’m not voting. F— it,’” Meg said, one of the quotes Grande shared on her Story. “You’re going to complain about what you don’t like, but you’re not going to help the cause?”

“If you don’t like what Trump has going on, why even aid in him being the president again?” she added in the interview. “To be alive in a lifetime where a Black woman or a woman at all could be the president, I feel so blessed. This is what the future is about.”

The two women’s show of solidarity comes over three years after Ari tapped Meg and Doja Cat for the remix of her NSFW Positions single “34+35,” which went on to peak at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both Grande and Ms. Stallion dropped new albums in 2024, with the former’s Eternal Sunshine topping the Billboard 200 and the latter’s Megan reaching No. 3 on the chart.
