Watch Influencer Harry Daniels Sing Beyoncé’s ‘Formation’ to an Unsuspecting Kamala Harris

23 July, 2024

It’s been less than a day since President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and subsequently endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, to take his place. Harry Daniels, however, was already on top of doing what he does best — surprise-serenading celebrities.

The influencer took to social media on Monday (July 22) to share a video in which he sees “Ms. VP” Harris in a hallway, and begins singing the opening lines of Beyoncé’s “Formation” to her. “Y’all haters corny with that Illuminati mess / Paparazzi, catch my fly, and my cocky fresh / I’m so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress,” he belts to the Democratic politician, who watched in surprise.

The song choice made sense, as Harris is an outspoken Beyoncé fan, having attended her Renaissance tour last summer and even walked out to the superstar’s “Freedom” during her campaign staff meeting earlier this morning.

“Uh, hi,” Harris tells Daniels while giggling, before being escorted out of the room. “Who is that guy?” the vice president is heard hilariously asking her team before the clip cuts. It’s hardly Daniels’ first time singing to politicians, as he’s previously graced President Biden with a rendition of Lana Del Rey’s “National Anthem” and former President Barack Obama with Halsey’s “New Americana.”

Since Biden’s endorsement of Harris, countless party members, public figures and voters alike provided an outpouring of support for the attorney-turned-politician’s last-minute campaign, which raised more than $50 million in fundraising less than a day after it launched. “On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as President of the United States and for his decades of service to our country,” Harris wrote in a public response to the news. “I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination.”
