Eminem is used to being the main attraction, but he will be the opener at Kamala Harris‘ campaign rally tonight in Detroit…where he will introduce none other than former president Barack Obama.
CNN is reporting that Eminem will be joining the campaign at an absolutely crucial time for Harris’ campaign…with just two weeks until Election Day.
For those waiting for Eminem to start singing, don’t get your hopes up. Em is planning to welcome Obama to her city and share some thoughts on the presidential race.
Polls we currently have Michigan neck and neck between Harris and Trump… so it’s a huge win for Team Harris to have one of the state’s most influential voices encouraging Michiganders to vote for Kamala. Of course, Eminem was notably raised in the Motor City.
Eminem has been a long-time supporter of Kamala Harris. Shortly after the 2020 election, the rapper endorsed the Biden-Harris ticket in a black-and-white campaign ad with Em’s famous “Lose Yourself” playing in the background.
Waiting for your permission to upload Instagram media.
Obama, a known music lover, is also a big fan of Eminem… saying “Lose Yourself” was one of his top 2008 presidential campaign songs.
We’ve seen plenty of celebrities support Harris, but Eminem’s star power gives Harris’ campaign a unique boost in a state she desperately needs to win the election.
To quote Slim Shady… this opportunity comes once in a lifetime.
