Trump's Explosive Claim: Celebrities Paid to Endorse Harris?

Trump Accuses Celebrities of Illegal Campaign Contributions. Former President Donald Trump has leveled serious accusations against several prominent celebrities, alleging they received illegal payments for endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that Beyoncé was paid \$11 million to briefly appear at a Harris event and offer a full-throated endorsement. He also named Oprah Winfrey, Taylor Swift, and Bruce Springsteen, suggesting they too received undisclosed payments. Trump's post calls it an "illegal election scam." The musicians' union has responded, defending the artists' right to political expression. However, the claims lack independent verification and raise questions about the potential for misuse of funds in political campaigns. The veracity of Trump's allegations remains unconfirmed and requires further investigation.
