Katy Perry today endorsed Hillary Clinton as her vote for the next President of the United States at the Democratic National Convention. “Both of my parents are pastors. And staunch republicans. I didn’t finish high school and unfortunately I don’t have a formal education” said Perry.

“But I do have an open mind and I have a voice,” she continued. “So I’m asking you to have an open mind and use your voice because on November 8th, you’ll be just as powerful as any NRA lobbyist. You’ll have as much say as any billionaire. Or you can just cancel out your weird cousin’s vote if you like. Because remember it’s not where you come from, it’s what you grow into. So here’s how I’m going to use my voice. I’m going to vote for Hillary Clinton.”

 

The singer then performed her new single Rise and hit Roar to the thousands-strong crowd. But it was perhaps her boyfriend Orlando Bloom in the audience who won the night, proudly filming his girlfriend on stage.
