Superstar singer Beyonce took the stage at a rally for Kamala Harris in Houston on Friday night, not to sing but to offer her first public political appearance this election cycle at a crucial moment for the Democratic presidential candidate.
“I’m not here as a star. I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother who cares deeply about the world and her children,” Beyoncé explained.” A world where we have the freedom to control our bodies.”
For Harris, the superstar’s support with a rally in Republican Texas is an important success, with which she aims to restore the momentum lost in recent weeks to her campaign and fly toward Election Day. Trump is also looking for the final sprint.
She then played the song “Freedom” from Beyonce’s 2016 album “Lemonade,” which has since become her campaign anthem, as Harris entered the stage. Beyonce hugged the vice president for a long time before leaving.
