Rapper Cardi B took the stage at a rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to endorse Kamala Harris and bring her voice to the campaign. But the moment took an unexpected twist when Cardi’s teleprompter reportedly malfunctioned, leaving her without her prepared speech.
In the brief pause, Cardi kept her composure, joking with the crowd and filling the gap with a bit of humour. “I am a little nervous guys, I’m a little nervous,” she said with a laugh.
Then, looking for her manager, she called, “Hold on guys, I need Patience over here. Patience, where are you?” Trying to keep the crowd engaged, she added, “Hold on guys, how are you guys doing tonight? Are we ready to make history?” Finally, her manager, Patience Foster, rushed on stage, handing her a phone with the script.
The incident quickly gained attention on social media , with some users poking fun at the mix-up. One X user remarked, “Rapper Cardi B’s teleprompter broke when she took the stage at Kamala Harris rally in Wisconsin and Cardi had to wait in front of a live audience for over a minute until a stranger brought her a cell phone with a script. This tells you everything you need to know.” Another wrote, “LMAO Cardi B's teleprompter was broken and she had no idea what to do for over a minute until someone ran on the stage to give her a phone to read off. Holy embarrassing.”
Despite the mishap, Cardi continued with her endorsement reading her speech through a phone, praising Harris and slamming Trump ’s record on women’s rights. “Kamala Harris joining the race changed my mind completely,” she said, explaining that she hadn’t initially planned to vote until Harris’s campaign inspired her.
Describing Trump as a “bully,” Cardi highlighted her own values, stating, “I can’t stand a bully, but just like Kamala, I always stand up to one.” She criticised Trump’s promises to “protect” women, claiming, “If his definition of protection is making sure our daughters have fewer rights than our mothers, then I don’t want it.”
Throughout her speech, Cardi expressed confidence in Harris’s plans to address rising costs, healthcare, affordable housing, and middle-class tax cuts. “I believe her when she says under her, buying eggs and milk won’t break the bank because she’s going to pass a ban on price gouging,” she stated, emphasising Harris’s focus on economic relief for everyday Americans.
Republicans were quick to mock Cardi’s reliance on her phone during the speech, with one user on X saying, “Cardi B is just straight up reading a script off her phone at the Kamala rally lmao.”
Still, the rapper’s endorsement underscored the impact of celebrity voices in a high-stakes election, with Cardi urging supporters to “turn out and turn up” on election day.
