It was a high-energy scene at Kamala Harris’ rally in Atlanta on Saturday, October 19, with none other than Usher and Lizzo hyping up the crowd. Usher even hit the stage, belting out “We Ready” by Archie Eversole, but it seems the internet wasn’t quite ready for him. Why? Well, his ties to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who’s facing serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges, have fans fuming.

Holy smokes, it couldn’t be more obvious! All the celebrities who partied with P. Diddy are suddenly activated to speak at Kamala’s rallies, terrified that if Trump wins, their secrets will be exposed.

Usher’s show of support gets messy
Usher didn’t hold back his support for Harris, telling the crowd, “I’m supporting Kamala because she fights for everyone’s rights and freedom… She has a vision for our country that includes everyone.” He went on about her plans to uplift small businesses and improve community health. But the drama hit when, during the rally, someone in the crowd yelled, “We love you, Usher!” He shot back, “I love you more, but I love Kamala Harris even more. I want her to be our next president.”

Indicating the internet rage, clips of Usher’s rally performance started circling online, and let’s just say, people weren’t feeling the love. One user on X (formerly Twitter) slammed him saying, “Kamala is so cooked she’s campaigning with Diddy Freak Off people. Usher, passing out herpes for whoever wants them.” Yikes. Another went all in with, “@Usher didn’t you sell a kid to your boy P. Diddy? Why should America vote to bail you out of the inevitable ending of you in jail? You’re just as sick as Diddy.”
Lizzo claps back in detroit
Earlier in the day, Harris teamed up with Lizzo in Detroit, where Lizzo didn’t miss a beat responding to Trump’s diss about the city. She clapped back with, “They say if Kamala wins, the whole country will be like Detroit. Proud like Detroit. Resilient like Detroit. Put some respect on Detroit’s name!”
Looks like Harris has star power behind her, but for Usher, his Diddy connection might just be too much for some to handle. The Diddy drama is far from over, and Usher’s taking some serious heat for standing by Harris. Guess the internet never forgets!
