Kamala Harris continues to attract star power to her campaign trails, with recent appearances from Stevie Wonder, Usher, and Lizzo

On Saturday (Oct. 19), Usher joined Harris at a rally in Atlanta, while Lizzo rallied alongside her in Detroit. These events were part of Harris' efforts to energize voters in key swing states ahead of Election Day.

In his home state for his “Past, Present, and Future” tour, Usher took a break to speak at the Lakewood Amphitheatre. Addressing a lively crowd, the R&B icon said, “Normally, I’m up here to entertain, but today for something far more significant for Atlanta and all of Georgia.” He praised Harris for fighting for everyone’s rights and urged the audience to vote, saying, “We can make a difference in this election, Georgia. Let’s vote for a future, ladies and gentlemen.”

Meanwhile, in Detroit, Lizzo called Michigan "the swing state of all swing states" and emphasized the importance of every vote. At the rally, she playfully referenced her 2022 hit song, saying, "If you ask me if America is ready for its first woman president, I only have one thing to say: ‘It’s about d**n time!’”

Harris capped off her time in Georgia attending two church events to celebrate her 60th birthday. At Divine Faith Ministries International in Jonesboro, Stevie Wonder took the stage to perform and encourage attendees to head to the polls. The legendary singer aimed at political plans targeting Black communities, urging voters to be vigilant. Before leaving, he serenaded the vice president with “Happy Birthday,” a moment she called a "bucket list experience," saying, "I am truly blessed."
