Vice President Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter, Ella Emhoff, proudly embraces her “brat” status.
Ella, the 25-year-old daughter of Harris’ husband, Doug Emhoff, celebrated Harris being labeled “brat” by British singer Charli XCX on her Instagram Story. On Monday, she posted, “charli_xcx gets it” over Charli’s viral tweet from Sunday, which read, “kamala IS brat.”

“charli_xcx gets it,” she wrote on her Instagram Story over a screenshot of Charli XCX calling the vice president “brat.”
Charli released her sixth studio album, “brat,” on Sunday, and it’s quickly become the buzzword of the summer. According to Charli, “brat” describes a girl “who is a little messy, likes to party, and maybe says some dumb things sometimes.” She elaborated in a TikTok video, “She feels herself but maybe also has a breakdown. She parties through it, is very honest, very blunt, a little volatile, and does dumb things.” Overall, “brat” is about owning everything about oneself — including the ugly.
Harris, 59, seems to be welcoming the 31-year-old pop star’s “brat” endorsement. Her official campaign account on X, @KamalaHQ, even changed its banner to match the style of the “brat” album cover, with a blurry and black “brat” written across a lime green background. KamalaHQ’s X banner now reads “kamala hq” in the same blurry style and background.
Fans have also created several fun social media edits, splicing Harris’ speeches with Charli XCX songs. A popular meme includes a quote from May 2023 when Harris recalled her mother asking, “You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?” Fans have added a green hue to videos and photos of Harris as well.
Charli’s “brat” compliment came shortly after President Joe Biden announced his decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race, giving his “full support and endorsement for Kamala” to run as the Democratic nominee.
George Clooney, who critiqued Biden, 81, in an op-ed earlier this month urging him to leave the race, also publicly supported Harris. “President Biden has shown what true leadership is. He’s saving democracy once again,” he said in a statement to CNN on Tuesday. “We’re all so excited to do whatever we can to support Vice President Harris in her historic quest.”
