Kamala Harris Joins ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars’ Season Finale In Get-Out-The-Vote Push


There are sure to be lots of fireworks and surprises on the Season 9 finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars tomorrow but guarantee a lot of people did not have a potential Commander-in-chief on their bingo card.

Vice President Kamala Harris shows up at the top of the Paramount+ series season ender to urge viewers to vote in the November election.

“Each day we are seeing our rights and freedoms under attack, including the right of everyone to be who they are, love who they love, openly and with pride, the VP and presumptive Democratic nominee says. “So, as we fight back against these attacks, let’s all remember, no one is alone,” the former District Attorney of San Francisco and longtime LGBTQ+ ally added with Michelle Visage, acclaimed choreographer Jamal Sims, Lance Bass, Leslie Jones, and Cheyenne Jackson by her side.

“We are all in this together, and your vote is your power.”

The pitch was filmed last month before the Vice President moved into the Dems’ pole position with President Joe Biden deciding on July 21 to drop out of the 2024 race and throw his support behind Harris.

As SF DA, Harris personally married Bradley Witherspoon and Raymond Cobane in 2004, long before the Supreme Court recognized marriage equality. In recognition of that and her continued support for the LGBTQ+ community, the California-born VP’s less than a week old POTUS bid received the endorsement on July 24 of over 1,1000 leading members of said community. “Vice President Kamala Harris is a galvanizing trailblazer and has been a champion for LGBTQ+ equality for decades,” Colman Domingo, George Takei, Sophia Bush, Ashlyn Harris, Wilson Cruz, Brian Michael Smith and many others declared in the letter.

Putting that support into donation and organizing action, a nationwide Out for Harris LGBTQ+ Unity call is scheduled for tonight. The call is set to start at 9 pm ET, and you can sign up for it here.

Back at Drag Race All Stars, this season’s two-part Grand Finale will see all the Queens on the stage together for what Paramount+ calls, ‘an unforgettable Variety Extravaganza!” in pursuit of $200,000 with a trio of badges in the mix. Provided by the Palette Fund, the money marks the first time that an All Star win is going directly to a charity of the winner’s choosing.
