Candace Owens Goes After Beyoncé Over Kamala Harris Endorsement Allegations

BY Edwin Lamptey November 24, 2024 7:11 AM EDT

Candace Owens has decided not to back down easily after being slammed by Tina Knowles for alleging that Beyonce was paid $10 million to endorse Kamala Harris.

Per previous reports, Beyoncé officially permitted Vice President, Kamala Harris, to use her song “Freedom” for her 2024 presidential campaign.

Harris not only used the song at her campaign rallies but even used the track in her campaign videos.

Then on October 25, 2024, the Kamala Harris campaign held a rally in Houston, Texas, Beyoncé’s hometown. At the rally, the musician was joined by her Destiny’s Child groupmate, Kelly Rowland, and her mother, Tina Knowles. 

When the rally came to an end, now President-elect, Donald Trump, who won the election officially on November 6, trashed Kamala Harris’ event with Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Tina Knowles; and then a week ago, Candace Owens slammed the women on her self-titled show.

Owens claimed: “Beyoncé allegedly got paid $10 million for that pathetic little endorsement of Kamala Harris. What was it 3 minutes? $10 million for 3 minutes of her life?”

She then added, “Beyoncé wasn’t the only one who allegedly got paid in a major way. One such person is Meghan Thee Stallion. One-half of the ‘WAP’ duo with Cardi B. She was one of the first people to perform for Kamala Harris and shows reportedly paid $5 million. She got paid to shake her booty.”

Candace Owens continued to claim she “wanted all the smoke” with Beyoncé and her Bey Hive (Bey’s fanbase). Firing back at the claims about Bey allegedly being paid $10 million to endorse Kamala Harris was her mom, Tina Knowles. On Saturday (November 16), Knowles took to Instagram with a screenshot showing Owens’ video being flagged for “false information” on Instagram and she unloaded the clip in her caption.

Owens then recapped her back-and-forth with Tina Knowles on Instagram and then fired back. Continuing to come for Beyoncé, Candace Owens now claims that people find her and her husband to be “annoying now.” She claimed that the couple, especially Beyoncé has been inauthentic and that what worked for them 10 years ago is no longer going to win over the people.

Owens said, “Beyoncé doe not remember what it means to be authentic anymore because she’s been playing the role of a queen for so long and she’s grown so accustomed to simply visiting the commonwealth every four years.”
