Beyonce’s been making her way around the U.S. on her “Renaissance” world tour in recent weeks. The tour’s been making headlines for fan antics, killer performances and, of course, countless celebrity guests. One special guest in particular who came out to see Bey recently was Kamala Harris. Apparently, the Vice President was able to step out of the office for a moment to share a “fun date night” with her husband, Douglas.
She shared a photo of her and her husband on Twitter/X last night, thanking Beyonce for a great show. Douglas wore a simple black jacket and jeans, while Kamala showed out with a hard-to-miss sequined top. Beyonce performed at DC’s FedEx Field yesterday, and is scheduled to take the stage again tonight (August 6), at the same venue. According to reports, fans were lining up outside the venue hours before the performance, showing off their outfits and even doing a bit of Beyonce karaoke. At this point, it’s unconfirmed whether or not Kamala was part of that swarm.

Other celebrity guests to be spotted on Beyonce’s “Renaissance” tour include Ariana Grande, Lizzo, Future, Paul McCartney, Zendaya, and more. Bey kicked off the North American leg of the tour last month with a performance in Toronto. She wrapped up the European leg at the end of June. This week, she’s scheduled to stop in Charlotte, NC before moving on to more dates in the south, including Atlanta, Tampa, and Miami. The “Renaissance” tour is set to conclude in the beginning of October with a show in Kansa City, MO.
So far on the tour, Beyonce’s been turning heads with her countless fabulous looks. Recently, the pop star stunned a bright, metallic pink leotard. She made a statement with a matching jacket/cape combo, pairing the look with a pair of thigh-high glittery boots and some pink shades. Stay tuned to HNHH for more updates on Beyonce and her “Renaissance” world tour.

President Joe Biden says he plans on seeking reelection in 2024. The 46th President spoke with NBC’s Today Show on Sunday prior to the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House. Biden will have plenty of time to plan his campaign ahead of the election next November. Additionally, Biden says Vice President Kamala Harris is also likely to join him in seeking reelection. Seeking the highest offices in the land is certainly difficult. However, Biden is likely used to it by now. He won the Presidency in 2020 after a campaign impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, he had two successful runs for Vice President with Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012.
Although Biden did not make the announcement official, his 2024 run seems to be all but formality at this point. “I plan on running … but we’re not prepared to announce it yet,” he said. Moreover, the decision to seek reelection was heavily hinted at earlier this year by Biden’s wife. First Lady Jill Biden stated that her husband still had work to do during a speech in February. Meanwhile, Biden’s top advisers are also preparing for the campaign season. One person close to the administration told NBC News that the decision has already been made. “The decision part is over, but he resents the pressure to have to announce what he’s already decided,” the source said.
Moreover, If and when Biden does confirm his run for 2024, it will hardly be surprising. It is extremely rare for first term Presidents to not seek reelection. In fact, only three first-term Presidents have chosen to forego a re-election bid, President Lyndon B. Johnson was the last to do it in 1968. Meanwhile, Biden would enter his 2024 campaign at an uncertain time. Mounting inflation has caused poll numbers to dip. Moreover, polling numbers for former President Donald Trump have increased following Trump’s arrest last week.
However, Joe Biden would be the overwhelming favorite in the Democratic primaries in 2024. Presently, the only other major Democratic figure to announce their campaign is activist and self-help author Marianne Williamson. Therefore, Biden and Trump may very well end up having a rematch of their 2020 election showdown. Biden has seen support from celebrities such as Cardi B, Rihanna and John Legend. We will see if this support can help him to another victory next November.
Though Megan Thee Stallion spent much of early 2023 away from social media and the public eye, the Houston native has been outside with a vengeance lately. Not only did she make her red carpet return at the Vanity Fair Oscars After-Party, but she also announced that her first performance of the year will be taking place in her hometown at the end of March. Clearly, she’s feeling much better now that Tory Lanez has been found guilty of shooting her in the foot several years ago.
Aside from the glamorous parties (one of which found her smoking weed with Seth Rogen) she’s been attending as of late, Thee Stallion also has a few wholesome activities on her calendar. This weekend specifically found the “Big Ole Freak” hitmaker taking a trip across the country to Washington, D.C., where she and Vice President Kamala Harris spent some time together in celebration of Women’s History Month. Megan shared a photo dump from her vacation on Saturday (March 18), revealing some of the fun the two had together.
To begin her carousel, the 28-year-old showed off her outfit for the event, for which she kept it (mostly) conservative. Thee Stallion donned a calf-length black and blue skirt with a matching button-up sweater, which markedly dipped down her chest with a sweetheart neckline to reveal plenty of cleavage. In the second image, she and VP Harris snapped a selfie together. Megan sticks out her tongue to expose perfectly white teeth while the politician grins from ear to ear with excitement over the special moment.
Other photos from the IG post include a better look at the multi-talent’s full fit, including her Birkin bag and kitten heels. Elsewhere, Megan Thee Stallion continued her tradition of showing off her ever-unique nail designs, this time posing her hand beside a latte with “Women’s History Month” carefully written out across the top. According to Daily Mail, the meeting in D.C. was “an opportunity to discuss economic empowerment of women and focused on paid family leave as an investment in the future.” Check out MTS’ wholesome pictures above, and read all about her recent bikini thirst traps here.

Several busloads of migrants were driven and dropped off at Vice President Kamala Harris‘ house on Christmas Eve. They included asylum seekers from Ecuador, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Peru, and Colombia. It’s unclear who sent them there, although Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has taken responsibility for similar actions in the past.
Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network volunteer Amy Fischer discussed the situation with CNN. They said an NGO working at the border in Texas warned them about the bussing before the migrants arrived.
“The DC community has been welcoming buses from Texas anytime they’ve come since April. Christmas Eve and freezing cold weather is no different,” she said. “We are always here welcoming folks with open arms.”
As for the White House’s stance on the move, spokesperson Abdullah Hasan labeled it “cruel” and “dangerous.”
“Governor Abbott abandoned children on the side of the road in below freezing temperatures on Christmas Eve without coordinating with any Federal or local authorities,” Hasan said.
He continued: “As we have repeatedly said, we are willing to work with anyone – Republican or Democrat alike – on real solutions, like the comprehensive immigration reform and border security measures President Biden sent to Congress on his first day in office, but these political games accomplish nothing and only put lives in danger.”
Abbott confirmed he sent buses of migrants to Harris’ residence back in September.
