Pop star Beyonce is expected to appear with Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris at her Houston rally Friday night. A source who spoke with NBC News said that Beyonce, who is from Houston, is also expected to perform at the event. Donald Trump will also be in Texas to appear on Joe Rogan's podcast.
People familiar with the planning told the Washington Post that Beyonce will appear along with her mother, Tina Knowles, and country music icon Willie Nelson. Harris has frequently used Beyonce’s song "Freedom" as her walk-on music at rallies. At the Democratic National Convention, rumors spread that Beyonce would appear and perform, though that never came to fruition and an appearance was never planned.
Beyonce put out a country music album earlier in 2024, with former First Lady Michelle Obama calling "Cowboy Carter" a call to vote.
