As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for politics and a knack for navigating the complexities of celebrity dynamics, I find myself intrigued by the latest developments between Katy Perry and Elon Musk. While their friendship has always been an interesting blend of creativity and tech-driven innovation, it seems that this year’s US elections have introduced a new layer of tension.


On the eve of Election Day in the United States (Tuesday), Katy Perry appears to have ended her friendship with Elon Musk.

On Monday, the well-known pop artist, who is 40 years old, announced that she plans to appear at Kamala Harris’ rally in Pennsylvania, despite the fact that Elon is publicly backing Donald Trump, Harris’ rival.

Perry also shared a video to Instagram with Harris where she called the politician a ‘KatyCat.’ 

On Monday, Oprah, Lady Gaga, Jazmine Sullivan, and The Roots are set to appear at the rally. Given that Pennsylvania is a crucial swing state, Kamala’s team is keen on demonstrating a strong lineup of celebrities just a day before the election.

In 2016, Perry wasn’t new to backing political figures – she performed her hit songs “Roar” at the Democratic National Convention and “Firework” during Joe Biden’s inauguration.

Katy’s friend Musk has been strongly supporting Trump.

However, there are allegations that he disseminated deceptive statements regarding the election through his social media network, with these claims reportedly garnering billions of views based on data analysis from an organization specializing in monitoring misinformation.

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, who supported former U.S. President Donald Trump back in July, is the head honcho of both Tesla and SpaceX corporations.

He has given more than $118 million to a pro-Trump super PAC.

Previous week, CNN challenged Elon Musk’s claim that unregistered immigrants are casting significant votes for Democratic parties in American elections.

Elon Musk is allegedly misrepresenting facts by suggesting, without concrete evidence, that Democrats are covertly transporting millions of undocumented immigrants to the U.S., ostensibly to allow them to vote for Kamala Harris during the 2024 election.

It is a far-right conspiracy theory.

The 2024 US presidential election campaign has been a particularly volatile one.

According to AP, heightened security measures are being put in place ahead of the election on Tuesday, due to worries about potential civil disturbances, electoral fraud, or threats towards poll workers.

In response to potential threats, the states of Oregon, Washington, and Nevada have mobilized their National Guards, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has established a central command center for surveillance, and security measures have been reinforced at approximately 100,000 voting locations across the nation.

Since 2020, a total of nineteen U.S. states, including crucial swing states like Arizona, Michigan, and Nevada, have passed legislation aimed at strengthening their election security, as reported by the National Conference of State Legislatures.

As Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump remain tied in the final stages of the contest, officials are working diligently to allay the concerns of anxious voters by ensuring the safety of their votes. Simultaneously, they are reinforcing the physical security measures for elections nationwide.

As a die-hard enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that Runbeck Election Services, the go-to for secure election tech solutions, has made an exciting move! They confirmed to AFP on Monday that they’ve placed an order for approximately 1,000 panic buttons. These lifesavers will be distributed among their esteemed clients, which encompass election facilities and the dedicated workers who keep our democratic process running smoothly.

These compact gadgets, which can be worn like a necklace (lanyard) or carried in your pocket, connect to your mobile phone. In an emergency situation, they can contact the relevant authorities such as law enforcement agencies for help.

As an ardent supporter, I’m excited to share that election officials in the seven key battleground states are assuring a sense of trust in conducting a reliable and fair election process.

In Georgia, voting is straightforward and difficult to manipulate. Our security measures are robust, and our citizens are prepared, as stated by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger during a press conference on Monday.

Fringe activists might bring some ‘extra drama’ to the proceedings, he said.
