Singer Beyoncé is expected to join Vice President Kamala Harris during a rally in Houston, Texas, on Friday. Harris is set to head to Texas to hold a rally focusing on the state's abortion laws in light of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in 2022. Sources have confirmed that Beyoncé, a Houston native, will be present at the event, as reported on Thursday morning.
While Beyoncé has not officially endorsed Harris for president in this election cycle, her song 'Freedom' has become synonymous with Harris' campaign events, often played as her walk-up song before addressing supporters.
During the Democratic National Convention in August, there was speculation that Beyoncé would perform on the final night of the event. However, she did not end up performing or attending the DNC.
Despite not endorsing Harris for the current election, Beyoncé has a history of supporting Democratic candidates. She notably sang the national anthem at former President Barack Obama's second inauguration in 2013.
In July, Beyoncé's mother publicly endorsed Harris after President Biden withdrew from the race amid concerns about his mental acuity and age. Tina Knowles took to Instagram to express her support for Harris, praising Biden for prioritizing the country's best interests over personal ambitions.
The upcoming rally in Texas is expected to draw attention to the state's abortion laws and the broader political landscape. Beyoncé's presence alongside Vice President Harris is likely to generate significant interest and support for the cause they are championing.
