July 23rd 2024.
There is a small but vocal group of celebrities who have made their support for former President Donald Trump very clear. It's no secret that in the world of modern Republicans, the term "Hollywood elite" is often used as an insult. This is perhaps due to the fact that President Joe Biden has had overwhelming support from a long list of A-list celebrities such as Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Taylor Swift, and Jennifer Lawrence.
However, with the recent news of incumbent President Trump withdrawing from the 2024 race and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the new Democratic candidate, there has been a noticeable shift in the celebrity endorsements. A long list of A-listers have publicly stated their support for the VP, including Barbara Streisand, Spike Lee, Mark Hamill, Jamie Lee Curtis, Cardi B, Charli XCX, Lil Nas X, Kerry Washington, Mark Ruffalo, and Shonda Rhimes.
On the other hand, the list of famous supporters for Republican candidate Donald Trump is much smaller and less well-known. Despite this, former President Trump has managed to gather a ragtag group of semi-famous faces to his cause, many of whom spoke or appeared at the recent Republican National Convention.
Let's take a look at some of the celebrities who have publicly endorsed former President Trump in the 2024 US presidential election.
First up, we have Dana White, the president of Ultimate Fighting Championship, who threw his support behind Trump at the RNC in Milwaukee last Thursday. White and Trump have been friends since 2001.
Wrestling icon and actor Hulk Hogan also made an appearance at the Republican National Convention, where he spoke in support of Trump. He boldly declared, "What happened last week...when they took a shot at my hero...they tried to kill the greatest president of the United States. Enough was enough." He also used his famous catchphrase to praise Trump's toughness, saying, "Well, let me tell you something, brother, Donald Trump is the toughest of them all."
Model and rapper Amber Rose also took the stage at the RNC to publicly endorse former President Trump. She told the crowd that she considers Republicans to be her "people" because they accept everyone, regardless of race, sexuality, or gender.
Influencer Bryce Hall, known for his massive following on TikTok, also publicly supported Trump on social media after the failed assassination attempt against the former President. He even donated money to Trump's campaign, along with other Republican candidates and organizations. He boldly declared, "This is my president," alongside a photo of Trump.
Another longtime Trump devotee is the musician Kid Rock, who most recently performed at the RNC. In an interview with Rolling Stone, he explained his vocal support for Trump, saying, "When I doubled down on it, I knew that could be a career-ender. But I was betting that there were a lot of like-minded people out there...You think I like Trump because he's a nice guy? I'm not electing the deacon of a church. That motherf***er likes to win. He likes to cheat in his f***ing golf game. I want that guy on my team."
Comedian and actress Roseanne Barr has been a vocal supporter of Trump for years, even appearing at rallies and conventions. During an appearance on the Real America's Voice network, she described Trump as a "dad bear" who protects his own. She has sparked controversy with her outspoken opinions in recent years, including her statement on a podcast with Donald Trump Jr. that "part of classism is racism" and her belief that "the Jews and the Blacks who vote Democrat" are "severely mind controlled."
Rapper 50 Cent also made headlines when he seemingly endorsed Trump by putting his face on the cover of his iconic album at a recent show. This isn't the first time 50 Cent has shown his support for Trump, as he previously endorsed him in the 2016 election.
Former Atomic Kitten singer and reality star Kerry Katona has also made it clear that she is a Trump supporter. In her column for OK!, she expressed her disbelief at the recent assassination attempt against Trump and said, "I don't agree with everything he says but I do like him for the most part...I think he's much better than Joe Biden." She even went as far as to tweet at Trump, offering him advice and asking if he'd be up for a chat.
As the 2024 US presidential election approaches, it will be interesting to see which celebrities will continue to show their support for the candidates. But one thing is for sure, the list of famous faces endorsing Trump is far shorter than those supporting Biden. It just goes to show that even in the world of celebrity endorsements, there are clear differences in opinions and beliefs.
