\n\tAs part of his closing argument to voters on Monday (Nov. 4), former President Donald Trump<\/a> took yet another shot at Beyonc\u00e9<\/a> for the R&B superstar\u2019s support of rival Kamala Harris<\/a>. While the current Vice President was headlining a star-studded event in Philadelphia with the likes of Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin and hometown heroes the Roots, Trump once again hit out at a recent appearance by Queen Bey<\/a> at a Harris rally in the singer\u2019s hometown of Houston.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cEveryone\u2019s expecting a couple of songs, and there were no songs,\u201d Trump, 78, claimed about the Oct. 25 event where the 32-time Grammy winner appeared with her Destiny\u2019s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland to urge Texans to support the Harris\/Walz ticket on election day (Nov. 5). \u201cThere was no happiness. It\u2019s just like, \u2018give me my check. I want to get out of here,’\u201d Trump claimed about Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the rally last month, the singer joyfully voiced her backing for Harris, saying, \u201cWe 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. A woman who\u2019s been pushing for what this country really needs right now: unity. It\u2019s impossible not to feel the energy in this room, the positivity, the community, the humanity. We are at the precipice of an incredible shift. The brink of history.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tShe added, \u201cI\u2019m not here as a celebrity. I\u2019m not here as a politician. I\u2019m here as a mother. 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\u2019re not divided. Our past, our present, our future merge to meet us here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to boosting Harris in Houston, Beyonc\u00e9 gave the campaign direct approval<\/a> to use her 2016 song \u201cFreedom\u201d as its campaign song. Bey\u2019s camp later sent a cease-and-desist<\/a> to the Trump campaign for featuring \u201cFreedom\u201d in a social media campaign video from a spokesperson; that video was later taken down in the latest example of a musician asking Trump to stop using their music<\/a> for his campaign.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Monday in the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania, Trump also brushed off the lack of star power at his recent events in comparison to the many A-list actors and musicians who\u2019ve lined up behind the Vice President, adding, \u201cJust to bring it back into seriousness, we don\u2019t need a star because we have policy.\u201d His event was warmed up by former Democrat U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, conservative commentator Megyn Kelly \u2014 whom Trump insulted with a crude, sexist remark about menstruation after she moderated a 2015 presidential debate \u2014 and the son of late baseball legend Robert Clemente Jr.<\/p>\n

\n\tThough he has repeatedly said celebrity support doesn\u2019t matter, Trump\u2019s campaign has welcomed endorsements<\/a> by country singers Jason Aldean and Billy Ray Cyrus, as well as Amber Rose, former reality star Savannah Chrisley, Caitlyn Jenner, Kid Rock, Dr. Phil, Elon Musk, Kanye West, Joe Rogan and Lil Pump.<\/p>\n

\n\tHe has seemed particularly peeved by Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s support for Harris, whose campaign has rolled up a galaxy of A-list supporters over the past few months, including Taylor Swift, Cardi B, Eminem, Scarlett Johansson, Ricky Martin, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Bad Bunny, Harrison Ford, Cher, Usher, Olivia Rodrigo, Madonna, Kesha, Billie Eilish, Bruce Springsteen, Charli XCX and many more.<\/p>\n

\n\tA week after Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s Houston speech, Trump took to the stage in Green Bay, WI dressed as a garbage man, where he again stressed that he didn\u2019t need help from celebrities. \u201cFour nights ago they got Beyonc\u00e9\u2026 uhhhh Beyonc\u00e9,\u201d he said, pausing while audience appeared to boo the singer<\/a>. \u201cThey got Beyonc\u00e9,\u201d he repeated. \u201cWe don\u2019t need Beyonc\u00e9, we don\u2019t need anybody\u2026 all you got is me, and I don\u2019t have a guitar.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Harris campaign never announced that Beyonc\u00e9 was expected to sing in Houston and at the Green Bay event, though Trump added, \u201cLadies and gentlemen, they said Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s coming to sing and she came but she didn\u2019t sing. And then Kamala came on as Beyonc\u00e9 was leaving without singing even one song and they booed the hell out of both of them\u201d; there is no evidence to support Trump\u2019s claim that the 30,000-plus Harris supporters booed Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s appearance.<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to pollsters, Trump and Harris are in a neck-and-neck race, with most predicting that results may not be finalized as soon as voting ends on Tuesday night. If you are not sure where your polling place is, click here<\/a> to find out.<\/p>\n
