Katy Perry Takes a Stand for Hillary With Dramatic Flair
Katy Perry has made no vague reference to who she supports in this current election cycle. The pop singer held a free concert in Philadelphia as part of Hillary Clinton’s “Get Out the Vote” concert series.
While fans and political supporters enjoyed the performance and messages from other notables including Shonda Rhimes, Madeline Albright, and Debra Messing, as reported on CBS Philly, Perry made sure no one would forget the event with her statement cape, emblazoned with the words “I’m with Madame President.”
The presidential candidate introduced Perry with the words, “Let’s prove ‘Love Trumps Hate,’” and the 32-year-old singer strutted out onstage accompanied by Janet Jackson’s “Nasty.”
This isn’t the first time Perry has worn her political statements on her sleeve, or other parts of her body. She’s been a longtime Democratic supporter and worn customized outfits and accessories for Clinton. In 2015, Perry took over Clinton’s Instagram account and posted a few customized fashion statements including a set of nails:

She’s also sported a customized dress with the Hillary Clinton campaign logo:

In 2012, Perry provided President Obama with similar treatment with a ballot dress.
At this point, we have little doubt whom the pop star will be voting for on Tuesday.
