PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA: In the aftermath of the presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, a peculiar claim has emerged, fueled by a faction of the GOP nominee's supporters.

They allege that Harris's elegant pearl earrings were not just accessories, but rather sophisticated Nova H1 wireless earphones disguised as jewelry to give her an advantage during the debate, as per WIRED.

Trump supporters claim Kamala Harris was using 'earphone earrings' during debate

As political commentators continue to analyze the high-stakes debate hosted by ABC News on Tuesday, September 10, certain MAGA supporters are fixated on an unusual theory regarding Harris' earrings.

The theory began circulating when an X (formerly Twitter) user posted side-by-side images of Harris from the debate and a promotional image of the Nova H1 earphones, which are marketed as "the first and only wireless earphones embedded in a pair of pearl earrings," pointing out their similarities.



 

The post, which read, "BUSTED! SHE’S WEARING EARPHONE EARRINGS," quickly gained traction.

The Nova H1 wireless earphones, for context, are a relatively new gadget that combines style with technology. According to its Kickstarter campaign, the clip-on earphones use patented "directional sound technology" to help the sound travel from the earlobe to the ear canal avoiding sound leakage." 

Each "audio earring" includes two tiny high-end microphones for "crystal clear phone calls."  

Nevertheless, it does not appear that the clip-on audio earrings are currently available for purchase anywhere, as pointed out by the community note on the viral X post. It also added that the earrings worn by Harris during the debate are from Tiffany & Co

Harris’s affinity for pearls is well known, and she has often sported pearl jewelry throughout her political career. Pearls have a special significance for Harris, as they are a symbol of her sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha (AKA).

As a member of the country’s first historically African American sorority, the Democratic presidential nominee has proudly showcased pearls during important events, symbolizing both her personal style and her connection to Alpha Kappa Alpha's legacy.

Conspiracy theory about Kamala Harris' earrings goes viral

The Internet, never one to shy away from a conspiracy theory, quickly latched onto the claim, turning it into a viral discussion.

One remarked, "Did harris use the Nova H1 Audio Earings? Wild if true," and another said, "When you look at photos and videos of Harris from the debate. Pay attention to her left earrings! Nova Audio H1 Bluetooth Earings!"

"Harris was coached from somewhere. Her earings are SMART WEARABLE headphones," claimed a person, while someone else sarcastically wrote, "I wonder if Harris was wearing Nova H1 audio earings because she is a music fan?"

An individual stated, "Kamala Harris and her leftist group thought we wouldn't notice the earphone embedded earings she was putting on during the debate with Trump. She was clearly being fed lines."

One more declared, "Cheater Harris. Earings that talk." "The NOVA H1 microphone earings Kamala Harris wore for the Presidential Debate against Trump The earings Kamala wore for the debate seem to he slightly modified," remarked another person.
