Stevie Wonder has endorsed Kamala Harris in her bid to become the next US president.

Harris, who is currently serving as vice president under Joe Biden, is running against Republican candidate Donald Trump, with voting set to take place on 5 November. Wonder, the legendary musician behind hits such as “Superstition” and “Sir Duke”, recorded a video with filmmaker Spike Lee in which he throws his support behind Harris.

In a clip shared to X/Twitter by Harris’s team, Wonder can be seen speaking about his relationship with Harris. “I was excited about Kamala years before people knew who she was,” the 74-year-old musician says. “I’m very happy for the future. I’m very happy because I know and believe that she will be the next president of these United States.

“Not to make you guys feel bad, but it takes a woman,” he adds. “But not just any woman, a wonderful woman. And she has done the work consistently.”

1. I kinda thought he already had after he played at the DNC.

But Elton John did play at one of Rush Limbaugh's weddings so I guess you can't take anything for granted. Thanks, Stevie!
