# US President Donald Trump says he would launch a major investigation into his 2024 election rival Kamala Harris over celebrities who backed her. He says candidates aren’t allowed to pay for endorsements and alleges that’s what Harris did under the guise of paying for entertainment. Harris sought to harness star power from celebrities such as Beyonce and Oprah Winfrey. Winfrey defended a 18-million-rand payment to her production company to cover costs associated with her hosting Harris. Harris’s team denied rumours that she paid megastar Beyonce 180-million-rand to appear at a rally.
