Beyoncé made a notable appearance at Vice President Kamala Harris’s rally in Houston on October 24, 2024, where she endorsed Harris’s presidential bid. Speaking to an audience of around 30,000 people at the Shell Energy Stadium, Beyoncé emphasized her support for Harris, particularly around issues like abortion rights. In her speech, she shared that she was there “as a mother,” rather than as a celebrity, underscoring her concern for the future her children will inherit. She rallied the crowd with a call to “sing a new song,” reflecting her belief in unity and progress.
This endorsement adds weight to Harris’s campaign, especially since Beyoncé is a highly influential figure in Texas, her home state. Beyoncé’s song “Freedom” has also become Harris’s unofficial campaign anthem, played during several of her appearances.
