TAYLOR Swift has endorsed Kamala Harris minutes after the vice president’s fiery debate with Donald Trump.
The Eras superstar, 34, who has a track record of voting blue, backed Harris and Tim Walz’s ticket and took a dig at JD Vance by signing off her endorsement as “Taylor Swift Childless Cat Lady.”

Swift’s stamp of approval came minutes after Harris and Trump’s high-stakes debate on Tuesday evening.
“Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight. If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most,” Swift shared with her over 280 million followers on Instagram.
“As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country.”
The Cruel Summer singer addressed the fake AI posts circulating online and even reposted by Trump, which claimed she was backing the former president’s campaign.
“Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site,” she wrote.
“It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation.
“It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.
“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election.”
Swift made her case for Harris, saying the vice president stands up for the causes and rights she believes while adding that Walz fights for LGBTQ+, IVF, and women’s rights.
“I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” she continued.
“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 calm and not chaos.
“I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ privileges, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.
“I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make.
“I also want to say, especially to first time voters: Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered! I also find it’s much easier to vote early.
“I’ll link where to register and find early voting dates and info in my story,” Swift concluded and signed off her post, “With love and hope, Taylor Swift Childless Cat Lady.”
Throughout the years, Swift, who voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 election, has publicly vocalized her political views.
The pop megastar uses her high-profile celebrity status and large social media influence to encourage millions of her followers to go and vote.
However, despite Swift’s mass following among Gen Z and millennials, a new survey conducted by The U.S. Sun showed the pop star’s endorsement will have little effect on the election this year.
A whopping 61 percent of those surveyed said that Swift’s endorsement would have absolutely no impact on voters in November.
An additional 19 percent affirmed the singer’s celebrity support would have “not much of an impact,” according to an exclusive survey on voters’ habits for The U.S. Sun by Talker Research.
Only 20 percent of those surveyed agreed a Swift endorsement would impact their voting decision.
