Dozens of stars backed Harris’s campaign and yet she lost. Is the era of celebrity endorsements over?

Focus on A-list talent such as Swift and Beyonce may have reinforced an out-of-touch vision, or maybe celebrity support holds no political power

The names read like a who's who of A-list talent about to walk a red carpet or attend Vanity Fair's famous post-Oscar party. Oprah Winfrey, Megan Thee Stallion, George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bruce Springsteen and many, many more.

These are just some of the bold-face name celebrities who backed Kamala Harris's failed run for the White House, making it one of the most star-studded political campaigns in US history. Even the world's biggest current star - singer Taylor Swift - got behind Harris.
