US election: The celebrities backing Donald Trump or Kamala Harris
Can the influence of celebrities sway voters when it comes to the US election?
With many of the biggest music and movie stars in the world backing her, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris will certainly be hoping so.
Democrats have long enjoyed a celebrity advantage, which has only grown during Republican Donald Trump's rise in politics. However, as Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign showed, star power is not always enough.
According to a recent YouGov poll, about one in 10 Americans (11%) say a celebrity has ever caused them to reconsider their stance on a political issue, while 7% say they have supported a political candidate because of a celebrity endorsement.
As the 2024 US presidential election approaches, here are the stars backing each of the two candidates - starting with Ms Harris.
The Avengers
In a clip shared by Hulk star Mark Ruffalo on social media, the Avengers assembled to show their support for Ms Harris.
Black Widow actress Scarlett Johansson, Captain America star Chris Evans, and Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr all feature in the video, along with Don Cheadle and British star Paul Bettany.
Ruffalo cited climate change, education and women's reproductive rights among the issues voters should consider.
"We're back," he captioned the post. "Let's #AssembleForDemocracy. In the #ElectionEndgame, every vote counts."
Taylor Swift
The pop mega star confirmed her support for Ms Harris in September, posting a picture of herself holding her cat Benjamin Button - a reference to Mr Trump's running mate JD Vance's "childless cat lady" comments.
Swift told her 283 million followers: "I'm voting for Kamala Harris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos."
In response, Mr Trump said Swift would "probably pay a price" for her comments.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
The action movie star is a former Republican governor of California.
However, he has said he is voting for the Democrats this time, saying: "I will always be an American before I am a Republican."
In a lengthy post on social media, Schwarzenegger said he did not "like either party right now" and that he does not "really do endorsements", but felt he had to speak out.
He went on to harshly criticise Mr Trump for rejecting the results of the 2020 presidential vote, saying this was as "un-American as it gets".
He ended by saying the country needs to "close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won't do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger."
Jennifer Lopez
The actress and singer spoke out during a Democratic rally in Las Vegas, criticising comments made during a Trump rally about Puerto Rico being a "floating island of garbage".
"You can't even spell American without Rican," she responded.
Lopez told supporters she was "an American woman" and a "proud daughter and son of Puerto Rico".
Madonna
Pop royalty Madonna revealed she returned home to the US following a trip to Paris to vote for Ms Harris.
Alongside a selection of photos of her time in the French capital, the singer, 66, posted on social media: "Paris was so fun! It was hard to leave, but I had to come home to VOTE Kamala Harris for president!!!!"
Beyonce
Beyonce appeared at a Democratic rally in Houston, Texas, in October, telling voters: "We need to sing a new song."
The star said she was not attending the event as a celebrity, but was there "as a mother".
She added: "A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world where we're not divided."
Charli XCX
Earlier in the year, Ms Harris embraced the social media trend of a "brat summer", inspired by British pop star Charli XCX's latest album, Brat.
It came after the singer-songwriter, whose real name is Charlotte Emma Aitchison, wrote in a post on X: "kamala IS brat".
She later told New York Magazine: "To be on the right side of democracy, the right side of women's rights, is hugely important to me… I'm happy to help to prevent democracy from failing forever."
Brat has now been named word of the year by Collins, which said it inspired a lifestyle "characterised by a confident, independent, and hedonistic attitude".
Bruce Springsteen
Rock icon Bruce Springsteen is also among the stars who have appeared at Democratic rallies.
Performing on stage in Clarkston, Georgia, he used time between his numbers to argue Ms Harris will protect democracy and fight for women's reproductive rights.
"He does not understand this country, its history or what it means to be American," Springsteen said of Mr Trump.
Eminem
The rapper attended a rally in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan, where he introduced Barack Obama.
The former president joked he had "noticed my palms are sweaty" before rapping several lines from the Grammy award-winning artist's hit song Lose Yourself.
Eminem told the crowd Ms Harris "supports a future for this country where these freedoms and many others will be protected and upheld".
Billie Eilish, Jennifer Aniston, Samuel L Jackson, Spike Lee and Cher are also among the stars who have endorsed Ms Harris.
Mr Trump's famous backers might not be as starry, but he has several who hold a deep appeal with his core base of voters.
Here are some of the big names who are supporting the former president.
Elon Musk
The tech billionaire has donated $75m (£58m) to a campaign group he set up to support Mr Trump's presidential bid.
Musk previously supported the Democrats but has become a vocal backer of Mr Trump in recent months, and joined the Republican candidate on stage at a rally in Pennsylvania.
At the event, Musk, who runs Tesla and SpaceX, jumped around on the stage and described the election as a "must-win situation".
Hulk Hogan
The wrestling star is among the celebrities publicly endorsing Mr Trump, appearing at the Republican National Convention in the summer and at a rally in New York last month.
He told "Trumpamaniacs" at Madison Square Garden that he had won heavyweight titles and body-slammed "giants" there, but the energy at the rally was "something like I've never felt", and "the most powerful force in the universe".
The retired wrestler, whose real name is Terry Gene Bollea, has shared several photographs of himself and Mr Trump on social media.
Mel Gibson
Hollywood star Mel Gibson will reportedly be voting for Mr Trump.
According to US entertainment site TMZ, when asked about the election, the actor replied: "I don't think it's going to surprise anyone who I'll vote for."
He said voting for Mr Trump would be "a pretty good guess", and reportedly added: "I know what it'll be like if we let her in and that ain't good. Miserable track record - appalling track record. No policies to speak of. And she's got the IQ of a fence post."
Dennis Quaid
The US actor, known for films including The Parent Trap and The Day After Tomorrow, gave a speech at a Trump rally in Coachella, California, in October.
"It's time to pick a side," he told the crowd. "Are we gonna be a nation that stands for the constitution? Or for Tik-Tok?
"Are we gonna be a nation of law and order? Or wide open borders?"
Jon Voight
Veteran actor Jon Voight, who is Angelina Jolie's father, has long been a supporter of Mr Trump.
In a video shared on social media, he told his followers: "We're now in a time of the darkest plague ever. And our chance, our only chance, is this November."
Voight accused Hollywood peers supporting Ms Harris of "putting out videos trying to brainwash the American people to do the most dangerous vote ever".
Jake Paul
YouTuber and professional boxer Jake Paul has also shared a video message endorsing Mr Trump.
He captioned the clip, "Who I'm supporting for president and why you should too..." but began by saying he had been "nervous, scared" to make it because of potential repercussions for his career.
Encouraging his followers to do their own research and not just listen to "your favourite pop star", he said he had rescinded his right to vote after moving to Puerto Rico for his boxing career - but that he wanted to present his millions of followers "with proper facts, numbers and data to encourage them to vote in the proper direction to quite literally save America".
Things "don't feel right" in the US at the moment, he said, which shows "that we are more divided than ever". He added: "What is the problem? Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years, so if we aren't happy... then who is to blame?"
Kelsey Grammar
The Frasier star - who has reportedly spoken of his support for Mr Trump in the past - was asked about being a Republican in Hollywood in an interview with the New York Times in September.
"For me to be anything else would be a problem," he replied. "I don't go along with a lot of what is preached in Hollywood. I go along with what is preached in Christianity. I go along with do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
"And I believe in all people: I believe in their desires and their lives and their worth. I want to make shows about that. I don't want to hate anybody."
Kid Rock
The musician has appeared at several Trump rallies and has been vocal in his support for the Republican presidential candidate on social media.
In a recent video, he responded to Eminem's support for Ms Harris, saying he had been friends with the rapper for years but he does not agree with his politics.
He credited both Eminem and "people like Taylor Swift for standing up and not being afraid to be vocal", but said his stance is "unequivocally MAGA, because I know in my heart, mind, body and soul that President Trump will make America great again".
