If someone calls Democratic presidential contender Kamala Harris a brat, it might not be an insult.
As endorsements of the vice president in the 2024 presidential race flooded in on Sunday, she also received high praise from pop star Charli XCX.
“kamala IS brat,” the British singer and songwriter said in a post to X that quickly went viral.
By midday Monday, Harris’ campaign had run with the meme
. The banner on its X page said “kamala hq” with a neon green background and lower-case letters, similar to the cover of Charli XCX’s album “Brat,” which debuted at No. 3 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart last month and has led some in Gen Z to deem 2024 “brat summer.”
Similar graphics appeared on the Harris campaign’s Instagram account, which is full of memes that have taken off with younger audiences.
