Kamala Harris pulled out all the stops Thursday night, welcoming Jennifer Lopez to her Nevada rally in a not-so-subtle bid to boost her celebrity fan base against Trump.

As reported by TMZ, Lopez, the pop star and actress, wasted no time slamming Trump’s recent Madison Square Garden event, painting it as a full-on assault on Puerto Ricans and Latinos everywhere. But, really, what’s another Hollywood elite taking shots at Trump?

Appearing at Harris’s rally, Lopez took the stage to enthusiastic applause, delivering a fiery rant about Trump and his so-called divisive rhetoric.

She wasn’t pleased with Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, where comedian Tony Hinchcliffe threw a crude jab at Puerto Rico, calling it a “floating island of garbage.” This, according to Lopez, was an unforgivable insult to her heritage—though she was born and raised in New York City.

And if that wasn’t enough, she went on to declare, “I am a mother. I am a sister. I am an actor and an entertainer. And I like Hollywood endings. I like when the good guy, and in this case, the good girl wins.”

Of course, J Lo’s appearance wasn’t just about Latino pride; it was about rounding up votes for Harris by tapping into that well of Hollywood influence.

Harris has already attracted a who’s-who of Tinseltown to back her campaign, including the likes of Beyoncé, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, John Legend, LeBron James, Scarlett Johansson, Cardi B, Robert Downey Jr., Katy Perry, and Mark Ruffalo.

Hollywood often steps into the political spotlight, sharing its views with the public. Here’s how some users on X responded to this latest endorsement:

For Harris, Lopez’s endorsement is another tool to boost her standing among Latino voters. It’s not a bad strategy if the end goal is to tap into the celebrity-driven hype machine, but will it actually resonate with the average American? Harris and her team certainly seem to think so. After all, it’s not like they have much else to fall back on.

With election day around the corner, expect more A-listers to come out swinging, all backing Kamala and hammering Trump at every opportunity. Whether these celebrity shout-outs have any sway remains to be seen, but one thing’s clear: the Harris camp is betting big on Hollywood’s ability to pull in the votes.
