Celebrities and the Political Landscape

From George Clooney to Eminem, the endorsement of a famous singer, athlete or actor used to be something politicians craved, knowing that a sprinkle of stardust could supercharge their visibility and likeability. But the 2024 US election has upended a variety of conventions analysts once held dear, and the support of a superstar no longer seems to translate to a boost in the polls. In fact, some are saying that Kamala Harris’ campaign might actually have suffered from its proximity to Hollywood.

Did the fawning of actors and musicians make Kamala seem out of touch? Did she just get the wrong people while Trump courted rightwing media darlings? All these questions will be answered by Piers Morgan and his guests; content creator Nerdrotic, Uncensored contributor Esther Krakue, content creator and writer The Critical Drinker, Author of The Case for Cancel Culture Ernest Owens, former senior adviser to Vice President Kamala Harris Mike Nellis and host of Tomi Lahren is Fearless on Outkick Tomi Lahren.
