GloRilla has endorsed Kamala Harris for president, citing four key reasons behind her decision.
The Memphis rapper posted a video on Instagram on Monday (October 28) urging her followers to vote for Harris in next month’s presidential election.
Soundtracked by her recently released “I LUV U” collaboration with T-Pain, the clip outlined Glo’s political stance as she lip-synced to the song.
The four reasons were: “A woman’s right to choose!,” “Protect the LGBTQIA+ community,” “Funding for Public Education” and “$15/hr minimum wage.” She ended the video with the message: “Vote Kamala Harris For President!”
Glo is just the latest big name to throw her support behind the Kamala Harris-Tim Walz ticket.
Last week, Beyoncé appeared at a rally in her hometown of Houston to lend her support to Harris’ presidential campaign.
Joined by her former Destiny’s Child groupmate Kelly Rowland, Queen Bey graced the stage at Houston’s Shell Energy Stadium and gave a short speech praising Harris, who later joined her on the podium.
“I’m not here as a celebrity, I’m not here as a politician; I’m here as a mother,” she said. “A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world where we’re not divided.
“It’s time for America to sing a new song. Our voices sing a chorus of unity. They sing a song of dignity and opportunity. Are y’all ready to add your voice to the new American song?”
Earlier that week, Eminem made a similar appearance at Harris’ rally in his native Detroit.
At the event, the rap legend gave a brief speech endorsing the Democrat before introducing former president Barack Obama to the stage.
“I’m here tonight for a couple of important reasons,” Em began. “As most of you know, the city of Detroit and the whole state of Michigan mean a lot to me. Going into this election, the spotlight is on us more than ever and I think it’s important to use your voice, so I’m encouraging everybody to get out and vote, please.”
He continued: “I also think that people shouldn’t be afraid to express their opinions, and I don’t think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution or what people will do if you make your opinion known.
“I think Vice President Harris supports a future for this country where these freedoms and many others will be protected and upheld.”
The presidential election takes place on November 5, with Harris going up against Republican Donald Trump in her bid to become the first female president of the United States.

David Lee Roth made an unexpected appearance at the Stagecoach Festival on Saturday evening, stepping onto the stage with Teddy Swims to perform “Jump,” the iconic 1984 hit by Van Halen.
During his Stagecoach set, Swims welcomed Roth after running through his recent single “Mr. Know It All” along with “Some Things I’ll Never Know,” both taken from his debut studio album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1), which arrived in September 2023.
This moment marked the third straight festival where the two have shared the stage. Swims previously invited Roth out during recent sets at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, where he introduced him as “David Lee Roth from the best band of all time, Van Halen,” before they kicked into “Jump” together.
The latest performance unfolded during a chaotic night at Stagecoach, as strong winds earlier in the evening led to a temporary evacuation of the grounds and forced several changes to the schedule, including removing artists such as Journey and Riley Green from the lineup.
The evacuation came after powerful gusts swept through the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, the site of the festival. An “emergency evacuation” notice appeared on screens across the venue, urging attendees to “move quickly and calmly to the nearest exit,” while alerts sent through the festival’s official app instructed people to clear the area.
The interruption impacted several stages, with the Mane Stage sitting between sets when the evacuation alert was issued. Wind conditions had been intensifying throughout the day, with stronger gusts arriving in the evening as part of a regional wind advisory.
Even with the disruption, Swims’ set ultimately continued, and Roth’s surprise appearance stood out as one of the biggest highlights of the night as fans returned once the festival resumed.
Stagecoach, one of the largest country music festivals in the United States, takes place every year at the same location as the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and regularly draws tens of thousands of fans.
