Beyoncé took the stage to rally support for Kamala Harris on Friday night at a massive rally in Texas as the race for the White House is a dead heat.
‘We are so happy to be standing here on this stage as proud country Texas women supporting and celebrating the one and only Vice President Kamala Harris,’ she said.
The megastar praised Harris and said she is pushing unity while praising the energy and ‘positivity’ in the room.
‘We are are at the precipice of an incredible shift, brink of history,’ Beyoncé said.
Beyoncé said she was not there as a celebrity but as a mother ‘who cares deeply about the world my children and all our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies.’
‘Imagine our daughters growing up seeing what’s possible with no ceilings, no limitations,’ she said.
She also told the roaring crowd to imagine the sacrifices their grandmothers have made ‘so we can witness the strength of a woman standing in her power, reimagining what leadership is.’
Beyoncé addressed everyone stating ‘your vote is one of the most valuable tools, and we need you.’
She said Texas has a role to play and needs to be part of something bigger.
‘It’s time for America to sing a new song,’ she said.
Beyoncé was not the only celebrity to take the stage in Texas. Actress and business woman Jessica Alba also spoke and music legend Willie Nelson performed.
She was also joined on stage by fellow former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland who spoke first.
‘We are grabbing back the pen,’ Rowland said. She revealed she voted for Harris and running mate Tim Walz this week.
‘Houston, you already had a hand in creating destiny,’ Rowland said.
The much-coveted Beyoncé endorsement comes months after Democrats were devastated by her no-show at the Democratic National Convention over the summer.
Harris uses Beyoncé’s ‘Freedom’ as her walk-up song at campaign rallies.
In August, rumors swirled that the Queen B herself would be making an appearance at the convention in Chicago ahead of Harris accepting the nomination.
Her team and the campaign did not dismiss the rumors sparking widespread excitement.
But it did not happen leaving thousands of party members and millions of viewers watching on TV disappointed.
