Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez is set to deliver remarks at Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign rally in Las Vegas on Thursday evening. This appearance by Lopez follows a recent controversial incident involving comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who faced backlash for making derogatory remarks about Puerto Rico during a campaign rally for former President Donald Trump in New York.
Lopez, who has been vocal about her Puerto Rican heritage, took to her Instagram profile to express her disapproval of Hinchcliffe's comments. She posted multiple messages in support of Puerto Rico and encouraged her followers to participate in the upcoming Election Day.
In one of her posts, Lopez urged her followers to make their voices heard by voting on November 5th. She emphasized her connection to both the United States and Puerto Rico, stating, “LET’S GET LOUD. Make your voice heard in ONE WEEK. VOTE Nov 5th. Born in the USA. Puerto Rico.”
By speaking out against the offensive remarks made by Hinchcliffe, Lopez is using her platform to advocate for the Puerto Rican community and promote civic engagement. Her participation in Vice President Harris’s campaign rally underscores her commitment to raising awareness about important social and political issues.
