"That Beyonce endorsement bout to be sent in 16 carriages" — Fans react as Kamala Harris walks out to Freedom by Beyoncé

All eyes have been on Vice President Kamala Harris since President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race and endorsed her to take his position as the Democratic nominee. On Monday, July 22, 2024, Harris appeared for a campaign staff meeting in Wilmington, Delaware, walking to Beyoncé’s hit song Freedom, leaving the internet in a frenzy.

In a video going viral, Kamala Harris can be seen gleaming and walking towards a podium, where she is greeted by her husband, Douglas Emhoff. The Billboard 200 chart-topping song, which also featured Kendrick Lamar, was heard in the background.

Netizens were surprised to hear Beyoncé’s song playing and began wondering whether she had publicly endorsed Kamala Harris yet (which she had not at the time of writing this article). Nonetheless, internet users took to social media to express excitement over the viral moment. Comments online read:

Beyoncé‘s mother, Tina Knowles, endorsed Kamala Harris for the 2024 US presidential election

Although Beyoncé, the queen of the BeyHive, has not endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, her mother, Tina Knowles, has publicly expressed her support. Knowles took to Instagram to share a picture of herself with Harris. She wrote in the caption:

“New, Youthful, Sharp , , energy !!!! You asked for it and our President Biden did what was best for the country ! Putting personal Ego , power and fame aside . That is the definition of a great leader, . Thank you, President Biden for your service and your leadership . Go Vice President Kamala Harris for President. Let's Go ❤️❤️❤️❤️ #kamala2024”

Harris had attended Beyoncé’s Landover FedEx Field show last August with her husband. The picture Knowles shared appears to be from the same event. It was reported that the musician gifted the two tickets valued at $1655.92.

At the Delaware meeting, Harris offered her supporters a sense of how she plans on defeating Trump. She then addressed issues like abortion and how she looks forward to shaping the economy.
