After Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish and Katy Perry, this is another popular pop star who speaks out in favor of Kamala Harris. The Democratic candidate for President of the United States received the support of the very popular singer Lizzo on Saturday, while Usher will also appear alongside the candidate at a rally in Atlanta later in the evening.
In an accelerating pace of meetings, the Democrat delivered a lightning six-minute speech in Detroit, calling on voters to vote. This Saturday marks the opening of early voting operations in this metropolis of the Great Lakes region. Donald Trump “spends all his time talking about himself,” said the candidate. “He’s not talking about workers, he’s not talking about you.”
A few moments earlier, Lizzo had preceded her on stage. “Is America ready for its first female president?” asked the 36-year-old Detroit-born flautist and rapper. “I only have one thing to say: it’s really time!” “, she added, using the title of her famous hit “About damn time”.
Known for her adherence to “body positivity” and her involvement in the defense of LGBT+ rights, the singer is also targeted by accusations of harassment by some of her dancers and employees. Her career is no less impressive with several appearances in the American Billboard and collaborations with Cardi B and Ariana Grande. His rap title Truth Hurts was ranked among the 500 best music of all time by Rolling Stones magazine in 2021. In 2019, it was also the first solo single by a black singer to reach number one on the Billboard chart since Diamond by Rihanna released in 2012.
