Megan Thee Stallion opened for Kamala Harris’ Atlanta campaign, and Quavo shows up for the VP. Keep watching to see what they had to say!

Narrator:
Megan Thee Stallion kicked off Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign event in Atlanta, getting the crowd hyped. She even shared some backstage fun with the VP.

But she wasn’t the only one getting the crowd hyped. They showed off their excitement, singing along to Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us.”

Another musician showed up for Kamala. Quavo, who lost his nephew and Migos partner Takeoff to gun violence, helped introduce Harris to the crowd of 10,000 people. 

Quavo:
You can’t understand the struggles of gun violence if you’re not in the field and in the heart of it. So one thing I learned about Vice President Harris is that she always stands on business. 

Narrator:
And then it came time for the VP to address the crowd, een fitting in a mention of the Atlanta native in her speech. 

Kamala Harris: 
Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been talking a big game about securing our border but he does not walk the walk. Or as my friend Quavo would say, he does not walk it like he talks it.

Other matchups include Dua Lipa versus Peso Pluma, Justin Bieber versus Gracie Abrams, and Lana Del Rey is going head to head with last year’s winners, SB19.

As Simone Biles and other gymnasts compete at the Paris Olympics, they’re bringing the heat with their routines and music choices. From Stray Kids to Taylor Swift, these girls have it going on. Keep watching to see more of their musical selections!

Katie Cao:
We all know Simone Biles is the GOAT, and when you’re the GOAT, you’ve gotta have the appropriate floor music. And Taylor Swift’s “…Ready for It?” is just one of the many pop songs you can hear at this year’s Olympics. Jordan Chiles, also of Team USA, has a medley of Queen Bey’s tracks in her floor music, with a little Destiny’s Child for good measure. Rebeca Andrade of Brazil is a Beyoncé fan as well, tumbling to Bee’s classic “Countdown.” Her teammate Jade Barbosa brought some Britney to Paris with “… Baby One More Time” music and “Oops (I Did It Again)” choreo.

And since it’s a global competition, you’d expect some global hits. Mexico’s Alexa Moreno is a true STAY, tumbling to a medley of STRAY KIDS hits. Good luck to all the women competing in Paris.
