John Legend Says Daughter Luna Thinks ‘This Is Me’ When She Sees Presidential Hopeful Kamala Harris

John Legend was one of the first major musicians to publicly endorse Kamala Harris for president in 2024, but he’s not the only one in his family supporting the politician.

In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter ahead of his private performance at the Democratic National Convention this week, the “All of Me” singer revealed that his 8-year-old daughter Luna — one of four kids he shares with Chrissy Teigen — sees Harris as a role model. “[Luna] is so excited to see someone who’s Black and Asian like she is, [and] a woman like she is — so she’s looking at [Kamala] like, ‘This is me’ up there,’” he told the outlet.

“For her to see that, of course, is really inspiring, and she’s excited,” he continued. “And she can’t imagine why anyone would vote for Donald Trump, but that’s another issue.”

As mentioned, Legend was quick to voice support for Harris when President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race in July. “I’m so ready to work to help unite the pro-democracy coalition to reject Trump’s authoritarian, oppressive Project 2025 and elect Kamala Harris as our President,” he tweeted at the time. “She’s ready for this fight and I’m excited to help her in any way I can.”

The EGOT winner also praised Biden’s decision to let Harris take the reins while speaking to THR. “I think people were kind of apathetic about voting for two 80-year-olds, and they were ready for some new energy and some new excitement,” he said. “I’m truly grateful to President Biden for making that sacrifice, because the default for any president, especially someone who’s had as successful a first term as he has, is to run for re-election. And he understood that that wasn’t necessarily the best thing for the country, and he did something that was really graceful and patriotic by stepping down and allowing a new generation to step up.”

Legend’s remarks come over a week after he announced plans to release an album full of children’s lullabies titled My Favorite Dream, featuring lead single “L-O-V-E.” On the track he sings alongside Teigen and their oldest two children, Luna and 6-year-old son Miles.

Luna also personally illustrated the single’s cover art, and Legend — who’s also Dad to 1-year-old daughter Esti and 2-month-old Wren — wrote on Instagram that all the album’s songs were “baby tested, baby approved.”

“I’m right in the thick of fatherhood,” he added in a statement about the LP, which is due Aug. 30. “My parents loved to sing around the house, making up bedtime songs for us and songs to motivate and inspire us. And Chrissy and I also love singing to our kids. We make up little jingles and ditties for them all the time. In our home, music is very important to the way we interact and communicate with them.”
