Kamala Harris is on a mission to become the first female president of the United States in the upcoming US presidential election. 

Her bid has resulted in high-profile black Hollywood endorsements.

The list of high-profile supporters exploded after Joe Biden dropped out of the White House race in late July and put his full weight behind his vice president.

The support and endorsement seem to have increased in the weeks leading to the election

Dozens of singers, actors, and high-profile artistes such as Eminem, Attica Locke, Mickey Guyton, Omarosa Manigault Newman, Stevie Wonder, and more have attended and performed at Harris’ rallies, while other high-profile names have spoken directly or indirectly against former President Trump and his running mate, J.D. Vance. 

Let’s take a look at some of the biggest names in Hollywood to have thrown their support behind the Harris-Walz presidential bid.
