Full List of Celebrities Endorsing Donald Trump: Kid Rock, Mel Gibson and More
While Vice President Kamala Harris leads in endorsements from a range of entertainment figures, former President Donald Trump continues to also secure the backing of celebrities in Hollywood and beyond as Election Day draws closer.
Celebrities endorsing Trump: Who is on the list?
Elon Musk
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has been vocal about his support for Trump’s 2024 campaign. Musk, who donated over $75 million to a Trump-aligned PAC, has made appearances at multiple rallies this year.
At a recent event in Pennsylvania, Musk told rallygoers, “This is no ordinary election. President Trump must win to preserve the Constitution.”
Zachary Levi
Actor Zachary Levi, known for his roles in Shazam! and Chuck, surprised many when he endorsed Trump after his initial candidate, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., left the race.
During a Trump rally in Michigan, Levi stated, “We’re here to make sure that we are going to take back this country. President Trump is the man that can get us there.”
Lil Pump
Rapper Lil Pump, a notable Trump supporter since the 2020 election, has continued his public endorsement of Trump in the 2024 race.
Hulk Hogan
Former WWE star Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea) joined Trump on stage during a rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Known for his iconic entrances, Hogan made a patriotic display by waving an American flag while his theme song “Real American” played.
Hogan also made an appearance at July’s Republican National Convention.
Harrison Butker
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, a conservative Catholic, endorsed Trump in October on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle. “I think Donald Trump is the most pro-life president,” Butker said.
His advocacy for anti-abortion policies aligns with Trump’s recent campaign promises on issues important to his conservative base.
Dana White
UFC President Dana White has maintained a public alliance with Trump, appearing at the RNC in July to voice his support.
Lil Wayne
Rapper Lil Wayne, who received a presidential pardon from Trump in 2021, has voiced his appreciation and continued support for Trump.
“I want to thank President Trump for recognizing that I have so much more to give to my family, my art, and my community,” Wayne said on X (then Twitter) the day after President Joe Biden’s inauguration.
Kodak Black
Like Lil Wayne, rapper Kodak Black was pardoned by Trump in 2021 and has since endorsed Trump for 2024. At a September concert, Kodak encouraged his fans to “vote for Trump.”
Jim Caviezel
Known for toles in Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, and 2023’s Sound of Freedom, Jim Caviezel has also backed Trump.
During an appearance on Steve Bannon’s The War Room in May, the 55-year-old compared Trump to the biblical figure King David. He believes the real estate magnate has been “selected by God,” describing him as “pretty great.”
“Donald Trump, people talk about how private he is about his faith,” he told Bannon. “He’s getting it done for our Lord and savior.”
Joe Exotic
Convicted Tiger King star Joe Exotic officially suspended his own presidential run in August to endorse Trump.
“He has been my man for years,” he wrote on X. “Harris will get us all killed if Biden doesn’t sooner.”
Mel Gibson
Actor and filmmaker Mel Gibson has made strong statements in his endorsement of Trump. “She’s got the IQ of a fence post,” he said at an airport in reference to Harris.
When asked by a cameraman in a clip shared by TMZ if he would vote for Trump, Gibson replied, “That’s a pretty a good guess.”
Dr. Phil
Television personality Phil McGraw endorsed Trump publicly at the Madison Square Garden rally, saying that the former president was “tough as an old boot.”
Danica Patrick
Former race car driver Danica Patrick publicly announced that she cast her first-ever vote for Trump.
“I made a rule for myself that if I didn’t vote I could not have an opinion about the outcome, because I didn’t earn that right,” she wrote on Instagram. “Not this time. I voted for @realdonaldtrump and I can’t wait to have him make America great again!”
Rob Schneider
Comedian Rob Schneider, a longtime critic of “cancel culture,” reiterated his support for Trump on October 28.
“I PROUDLY SUPPORT DONALD J TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT,” he wrote.
Brett Favre
NFL Hall of Famer Brett Favre recently campaigned with Trump in Wisconsin.
He also appeared in a Trump campaign ad, where he said: “We need a strong leader, and I believe Donald Trump is the right choice to protect our families and restore world peace.”
Where Is Donald Trump Today?
Trump is doing two rallies in major swing states today, with one in North Carolina and one in Wisconsin later in the day. Combined, these states have 26 Electoral College votes, which could be the difference in November.
Vance is in Pennsylvania, also a swing state, following in Trump’s footsteps.
