While the country's famous athletes and musicians rarely comment on political issues and even more rarely offer electoral advice (does anyone know the political affiliations of Roger Federer or Lara Gout-Behrami?), the situation in the United States Completely different. Public recommendations are almost commonplace.

Stars and rising stars have been publicly supporting their favorite candidates for weeks, with some even actively campaigning for them. The most recent example is popular podcaster Joe Rogan, who sided with Donald Trump.

All news about the US election:

What follows is a (non-exhaustive) overview of prominent people who have publicly supported one side or another.

50 Cent Cover Photo Notes: The American rapper's past comments have sparked rumors that he supports Donald Trump. Days ago, Curtis Jackson, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, made it clear he would not support either candidate. Republicans recently offered him $3 million to attend a Donald Trump event at Madison Square Garden. He rejected this out of hand. He is afraid of politics. If you get involved, there's going to be an immediate backlash. 50 Cent recently said on a podcast that he doesn't want to be a part of this culture.

Team Harris

Kamala Harris is particularly at the forefront of Hollywood and the music industry. And it's clear.

Perhaps the most influential supporter: Taylor Swift.Image: trapezoid

However, we're not sure her political stance will convince her fans:

  • Luis Fonsi
  • bad bunny
  • Scarlett Johansson
  • Robert Downey Jr.
  • chris evans
  • Mark Ruffalo
  • Madonna
  • Cardi B

How Latin superstar Bad Bunny found his way into the Harris (or anti-Trump) camp:

  • Nicky Jam (originally supported Trump, but switched to Harris camp after Puerto Rico comments)
  • Arnold Schwarzenegger
  • don omar
  • munford & sons
  • slim Shady
  • Megan Thee Stallion
  • Ricky Martin
  • Cher
  • mark antony
  • Lizzo
  • usher

Arnold Schwarzenegger's defense of Harris, the Republican governor, caused a stir:

  • bruce springsteen
  • Stevie Wonder
  • Neil Young
  • beyonce

Aaron Sorkin, author of “The West Wing,” has inspired many politicians with his series of novels. But he himself doesn’t think highly of populists.

Harris also has support from the sports community. Especially basketball stars are supporting her.

Economics and media (and others)

The impression that Trump might be more popular with big business because of his political agenda could be misleading. At least among the names known to the public, Harris has at least as many supporters as Trump supporters.

  • bill gates
  • Mark Cuban
  • Laurene Powell Jobs
  • Michael Bloomberg
  • Sheryl Sandberg
  • John Fish
  • Reed Hastings
  • Christy Walton
  • Melina French Gates
  • Sean Parker
  • Oprah Winfrey
  • Anna Wintour

When it comes to sports, however, Trump can easily hold up against Harris. “Republican” is particularly popular with martial artists and football players.

  • Dana White

  • mike tyson
  • Don King
  • Danica Patrick
  • Le'Veon Bell
  • Lawrence Taylor

Economics and Media (and others)
