US Presidential Election: Stars Show Their Candidate Preferences
US Presidential Election: Stars Show Their Candidate Preferences
(France 2)
In the United States, Oprah Winfrey has given her support to the Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Like her, several stars have spoken out in favor of the vice-president.
Kamala Harris, in prime time, fell into the arms of the woman who was long considered the most powerful woman in America, Oprah Winfrey. For the occasion, the latter brought together a galaxy of Hollywood stars: actress Julia Roberts, singer Jennifer Lopez, and actress Meryl Streep.
These endorsements are in addition to those of superstar Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, who has agreed to have one of her songs used in campaign rallies and advertisements. Donald Trump, for his part, seems to have fewer endorsements from showbiz: singer Kid Rock, or wrestler Hulk Hogan, who is very famous in the United States. The candidate has also rallied one of the princes of Latin music, Nicky Jam.
The presence of stars at his side does not guarantee victory, however. In 2016, big names supported Hillary Clinton, which did not prevent Donald Trump from winning the election.
