Billie Eilish and Finneas have officially endorsed Kamala Harris for president over Donald Trump. In a joint video post on Instagram, the Grammy and Oscar-winning duo celebrated National Voter Registration Day by encouraging their followers to register, vote early, and to vote for the Kamala Harris-Tim Walz ticket.
“We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet, and our democracy,” Eilish said.
Finneas added, “We can’t let extremists control our lives, our freedoms, and our future. The only way to stop them and the dangerous Project 2025 agenda is to vote and elect Kamala Harris.”
“Vote like your life depends on it because it does,” Eilish concluded.
Eilish and Finneas are the latest music stars to throw their weight behind Harris in recent weeks. Perhaps the biggest celebrity endorsement for the Harris campaign came from Taylor Swift, who released a statement in support of Harris shortly after the first presidential debate between Harris and Donald Trump. Swift noted that Harris “fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader, and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calmness instead of chaos.”
Hillary Clinton recently gave an interview supporting celebrity endorsements during elections as fanbases need motivation to vote. Clinton said that Swift specifically “brings an unusual impact to an endorsement.”
“Her fanbase is so intense and incredibly influenced by her,” Clinton explained. “She’s a singer who charts her own course of life which they relate to as their own lives but she’s also someone who stood up against someone who groped her and fought back for her music when she thought it was taken illegitimately from her. She has demonstrated resilience in taking control over her own life that sends a strong message. I’m a huge admirer; I think [her endorsement] has real impact.”
