Beyonce appears in Texas to rally for Kamala.

Beyonce has made a rare political appearance, as she hugged Kamala Harris at a presidential campaign rally, telling voters: “We need to sing a new song.”

While she did not perform – unlike in 2016 when she sang at a rally for Hillary Clinton in Cleveland – the US singer said she appeared in her capacity not as a celebrity, but “as a mother”.

 Beyonce spoke as Ms Harris warned that her Republican rival for the White House wants women’s rights to be further eroded.

“I’m not here as a celebrity, I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother,” Beyonce told the crowd in Houston, Texas, as she endorsed the US vice president.

“A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world where we’re not divided.”

“Imagine our daughters growing up seeing what’s possible with no ceilings, no limitations,” the US singer continued. “We must vote, and we need you.”

Houston is Beyonce’s hometown, and Ms Harris’s presidential campaign has taken on Beyonce’s song Freedom, a track from her 2016 album Lemonade, as its anthem, first using the music in July. Beyonce was joined onstage by her Destiny’s Child bandmate, Kelly Rowland, and introduced Democratic candidate Ms Harris as the “next president of the United States”.

A few days ago, Eminem also appeared at Kamala Harris’ rally with the former US president, Barrack Obama.
