Cardi B Is ‘So Nervous’ About Election Day, While Rihanna Jokes About Sneaking Into Polls With Son’s Passport
After what has felt like the longest election season in American history, Cardi B is sweating the results already. The “Bongos” rapper took to X just after midnight on election day (Nov. 5) to share her anxiety about the too-close-to-call battle between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and twice impeached former President Donald Trump.
“I don’t know why I’m nervous for tomorrow,” tweeted Cardi, who appeared at a Harris rally last Friday in Milwaukee where she gave a passionate endorsement of the candidate vying to be the nation’s first female President while slamming convicted felon Trump’s stance on women’s rights. Cardi said in her post that she was so twisted up in knots about Tuesday’s vote that, “I feel like I’m running for president.”
Meanwhile, Rihanna — who was born in Barbados and is not a U.S. citizen eligible to vote — posted her own pointed message to fans about what’s at stake on Tuesday. “When protecting p—ies and firing p—ies can happen all in one vote #votecauseicant #TanSuitSeason,” the singer wrote alongside a pensive video of her staring out a window while wearing sunglasses. The comment appeared to be a reference to Harris’ vow to protect women’s rights to make choices about their own bodies in the wake of the repeal of Roe v Wade under Trump’s watch thanks to his appointment of three conservative Supreme Court judges.
Rihanna also had jokes, captioning her clip, “POV: me trying to sneak into the polls with my son’s passport #votecauseicant” Rihanna and partner Harlem native A$AP Rocky have two young sons together.
The stars are among the many A-listers who have lined up behind Harris in her bid to deny convicted felon Trump a second term in the former reality star’s third White House run. At the Milwaukee event, Cardi made it clear why she’s on team Harris. “I take seriously the call to show up, to speak out, and to share a message that’s been on my heart for a while now,” she said. “Like Kamala Harris, I’ve been the underdog, underestimated, and had my success belittled. Women have to work ten times harder and still face questions about how we achieved success. I can’t stand a bully, but just like Kamala, I always stand up to one.”
Harris made her closing argument in Pennsylvania on on Monday night at an event that also featured Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin and the Roots on a night when music stars stumped for her in swing states across the country. At the same time, Trump made his final pitch in Michigan as well during a two-hour speech in which he called former Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a “b–ch,” once again obsessed about his crowd sizes — while lying about the attendance at Harris’ rallies — as his running mate, JD Vance, referred to Harris as “trash” at an event in Atlanta.
