Megan Thee Stallion got a lot of push back from Republicans and online critics for her performance at Kamala Harris’ recent rally in Atlanta – but it’s not fazing her.
In her first trip to the city and the state of Georgia since beginning her election campaign, Harris brought out the A-list rap star in front of an estimated crowd of 10,000 supporters on Tuesday (July 30).

Meg was the first special guest of the evening, taking the stage in a cropped Democrat blue suit before saying to the crowd: “Lets get this done, hotties. Hotties for Harris!” She then performed a medley of hits including “Girls in the Hood,” “Mamushi,” “Body”, and “Savage,” complete with backup dancers and plenty of booty-shaking.
Of course this led to discussion of her “twerking” online and hate being lobbed her way for it, but Meg still stands firm in her stance.

“They was fake mad that I was popping it for Kamala,” Megan told the crowd at Lollapalooza 2024 on Thursday (August 1). “I don’t think they heard what she said. Kamala said she wants a ceasefire. Kamala said she supports women’s rights. Kamala said she’s tired of these high ass gas prices.”
After promising a good show for the attendees, Meg concluded her speech with, “Hotties For Harris!”

During the same Harris rally, Atlanta’s own Quavo came out to give a speech in support of the VP and her position on gun violence.
“One of the issues I care about is resolving the gun violence issue,” he said. “You can’t understand the struggles of gun violence if you’re not in the field or in the heart of it. So one thing I learned about working with Vice President Harris is she always stands on business.
“From inviting me to the White House last year to discuss these solutions, to passing the biggest gun safety laws today. So it’s only right in the birthplace of the culture, it’s also the same place to launch the first African American woman to run for president. Yeah, we changing the culture again!”
Quavo ended his brief speech by quoting his late nephew and Migos groupmate TakeOff, who was shot and killed in 2022: “So if you’ve never voted before, make sure you get out and vote right now because it’s the real one. And in the words of my brother TakeOff, let me get a Kamala!”

Current polling expects Trump to take Georgia, though the margin has narrowed since Joe Biden stepped down and was replaced by Harris, who is more popular with young and Black voters.
