After the 2024 presidential election resulted in Donald Trump winning, Madonna turned to cake to ease her sorrows, showcasing a “f–k Trump” cake on her Instagram Story. The circular cake was decorated with buttercream in orange, yellow, and brown, with maraschino cherries as well. In a selfie, Madonna expressed her disbelief at a convicted felon, rapist, and bigot being chosen to lead the country due to economic reasons.
Madonna recently showed support for Vice President Kamala Harris on her Instagram, endorsing her for president. She praised Harris as an intelligent, compassionate, and well-spoken leader who stands for justice and equal rights for all people. The singer also endorsed Harris during the 2020 election when she was running for vice president alongside President Joe Biden. Madonna joins a long list of female singers who have supported Harris, including Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Stevie Nicks, and Cardi B.
Many celebrities voiced their dissatisfaction and concerns about Trump’s win in the election. Actress Christina Applegate urged her followers to unfollow her if they voted against female rights or disability rights, calling the situation unreal. Sophia Bush expressed her heartbreak over the election result, while Selena Gomez shared that her heart was heavy in reaction to the news. The online reaction to Trump’s win was met with disappointment and concern from numerous celebrities across different industries.
On the other hand, some celebrities openly endorsed then-President-elect Donald Trump, including Joe Rogan, Caitlyn Jenner, and Jake Paul. Despite this support, Trump’s win led to a widespread outcry from many in the celebrity community. Vice President Kamala Harris conceded the presidency to Trump and privately congratulated him, affirming that the current administration would engage in a peaceful transfer of power. The aftermath of the election showcased a divided reaction among celebrities and the public regarding the election results and the future of the country.
