WASHINGTON, DC: The Vice President's office released a video on June 18, showcasing Kamala Harris' interaction with the 'Queer Eye' cast and crew during a special Pride Month event, celebrating the show's 20th anniversary.

Vice President Harris was mistakenly referred to as "Madam President" in a video caption during her meeting with the cast of the Netflix show.

Near the end of the clip, which was tweeted by Harris’ official X account, one of the cast members addressed her as “Madam Vice President,” but the caption read “Madam President” instead. 

“The cast of @QueerEye joined me at the White House to discuss the hard-fought progress the LGBTQI+ community has made in the past 20 years,” Harris proudly posted on X. “Thank you for a meaningful conversation, for giving my office your stamp of approval, and for being fabulous,” she added.



 

It was unclear whether the error in closed-captioning was manual or software-generated. The video was uploaded without correction by Harris, 59. 

The video shows Jonathan Van Ness, who uses they, he, and she pronouns, with a beard and clad in a long, form-fitting, tie-dye dress, eagerly knocking on the door of the office at the White House Executive Office Building, and expressing excitement in a high-pitched manner upon Harris opening the door.

The New York Post reported that Joe Biden has mistakenly called Harris "president" at least eight times during his presidency, with the most recent incident occurring last month at a joint news conference with Kenyan President William Ruto.

Internet calls Kamala Harris a 'constant source embarrassment' 

Facebook users slammed Kamala Harris over the embarrassing error in the White House video. One user said, "She's a constant source of embarrassment."

Another user mocked saying, "How sweet. She fits right in with that crowd."

The third commentator said, "This is the kind of garbage she's busy promoting."

"She's completely unlikable and has no redeeming qualities," one wrote.

A person claimed in the comments section, "Such FRAUDS and PHONIES. Can’t get any more fake. TRUMP/2024."
