The vast Hollywood machinery of corporate executives, publicists, celebrity influencers, and entertainment “journalists” is being mobilized to help Kamala Harris win in November, with a special focus on targeting minority women, according to multiple reports.
While she faces stubborn unpopularity with general voters, Kamala Harris is regarded as the “second coming” by many Hollywood elites who have adored her since her days in California politics. Now, the vice president is leveraging her contacts in the entertainment industry not just to raise money, but to engineer hype and astroturf a cultural groundswell that she hopes will propel her into The White House.
“We’re all so excited to do whatever we can to support Vice President Harris in her historic request,” George Clooney said in a statement to The Hill.
“Every woman that I know at Disney is over the moon right now,” one unnamed industry insider claimed to The Wrap. “It feels like an exciting moment.”
