Fresh off a flight from Paris, Halle Bailey gave an unforgettable performance, showcasing her unwavering support for Kamala Harris. "Some might hate, and they wait on your fall, they don’t know there’s a grace for it all," the Grammy-nominated musician reflected on the honor in a heartfelt social media post.

She added, "Omg omg pinch me, I came straight off the plane from Paris to sing for our beautiful vice president @kamalaharris. Thank you for inviting me, it was an honor to sing today." 

The fundraiser, which saw addresses from stars like Sterling K Brown and Keegan-Michael Key, was nothing short of a success, as it managed to pull in more than $28 million, further elevating Harris' campaign efforts as she gears up for the election.

Halle Bailey's 'Angel' is a love letter to Black women

Halle Bailey's debut single 'Angel', which was released on August 4, 2023, is inspired by her struggles with racism and online negativity during her rise to stardom. 

"I was still getting used to being in a bigger limelight, learning how to keep my head up and ignore any negative things people were saying about me as part of a racist backlash," explained 'The Little Mermaid' star to Cosmopolitan, as per Rap

The 24-year-old added, "It was really a love letter to myself and to all of the other Black girls and women in the world who have felt like they don’t belong, overwhelmed by so many different opinions about who they are, what they should be, where they should fit in."
