 Our pain matters': Jennifer Lopez endorses Harris at Las Vegas rally


Jennifer Lopez boosted the slew of Hollywood celebrity endorsements putting their support behind Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential bid in the final days before the November 5 election.


Warming up the audience before welcoming the Democratic presidential hopeful, the American singer-actress stepped out for Harris' North Las Vegas rally as part of the "When We Vote We Win" series. 

As one of the most influential Latin entertainers, the barrier-breaking artist's Nevada guest appearance on October 31 comes hot on the heels of MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's questionable description of Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage" at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally in New York.


Like Beyonce, Lopez chose not to flaunt her pipes with a show-stopping performance. With iconic Mexican rock band Mana taking over those entertaining responsibilities, the “Let's Get Loud” songbird emotionally delivered an empowering speech about why it was pertinent for “us to show up” for Harris.


Directly referencing the Kill Tony podcast host's Trump rally opening remarks, JLo said, “I promised myself I wouldn't get emotional, but you know what, we should be emotional. We should be upset. We should be scared and outraged. We should — our pain matters. We matter.” 

While reminding everyone of their vote's significance, she previously said of Trump, “At Madison Square Garden, he reminded us who he is and how he really feels."

“It wasn't just Puerto Ricans who were offended that day. It was every Latino in this country, it was humanity, and anyone of decent character.” The “Marry Me” actress made her passionate case by chiding Trump and labelling him as someone who “has consistently worked to divide us.”


Moreover, Lopez proudly asserted her identity as an American woman while announcing herself as the daughter of Guadalupe Rodríguez and David Lopez, a “proud daughter and son of Puerto Rico.” Before closing her speech and making way for Kamala Harris' address, “The Mother” actress firmly established that she would be casting her vote in favour of the Dems nominee for this November election.

“I am Puerto Rican, and yes I was born here, and we are Americans. I am a mother. I am a sister. I am an actress, and I like Hollywood endings, and I like it when the good guy, or in this case the good girl, wins. And with an understanding of our past and our faith in our future, I will be casting my ballot for Kamala Harris for president of the United States,” Lopez declared.


The majority of the singer's 15-minute remarks were dedicated to likening her background and origin story to that of the vice president. “When I started in TV and film, I could get roles playing the maid or the loud mouth Latina, but I knew I have more to offer,” she added. “And I think there are a lot of people in this country who feel the same way, who know that they are capable of more, and we all just want a chance to prove it. And elections are about choosing leaders who support that, not one who stands in the way.”


JLo isn't the only one with star power to cite Hinchcliffe's comments while placing her faith in Kamala Harris. Numerous celebrities of Latin American descent, including Bad Bunny, Ricky Martin, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Rita Moreno have since defended Puerto Rico, while others like Nicky Jam were catalysed to renounce the Trump train. 

Reversing Trump's “enemy within” commentary, Lopez firmly cautioned the crowd, “I’m a lover. I am not a fighter. I am not here to trash anyone or bring them down. I know what that can feel like, and I wouldn’t do it to my worst enemy, or even when facing the biggest adversary I think America has internally ever had. But over Kamala Harris’ entire career, she has proven to us who she is.”

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
