Kamala Harris: The VP with Hollywood Clout

In a move straight out of Tinseltown, Vice President Kamala Harris has bagged some serious star power for her 2024 presidential bid. An open letter signed by 88 bigwigs from the business and entertainment world throws their support behind VP Harris, giving her campaign a major boost in the early stages. In the letter, these luminaries touted Ms. Harris' 'proven leadership', 'commitment to serving the American people', and 'vision for America's future'.

The signatories include actors like Natalie Portman, Eva Longoria, and John Legend; producers such as Shonda Rhimes and J.J. Abrams; and high-profile executives from tech giants. This Hollywood endorsement is a major coup for Harris, who has faced criticism and low approval ratings throughout her tenure as VP. It signals that the entertainment industry sees her as a viable alternative to President Biden in 2024 should he decide not to run again.
