Pop star expresses concern over the outcome of the 2024 presidential race.

Janet Jackson has raised concerns about the potential aftermath of the 2024 US presidential election, predicting turmoil regardless of who wins. With the election scheduled for November 5, the race is set between former President Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

In an interview with The Guardian, Jackson, 58, shared her doubts about the election outcome. When asked whether the US is ready for a female president, should Harris win, she expressed uncertainty. “I honestly don’t want to answer that because I really don’t know,” she said. “I think either way it goes, it will lead to mayhem.”

Regarding the peaceful transition of power, Jackson was equally sceptical. “I think there might be mayhem. Either way it goes, but we’ll have to see,” she added.

Jackson’s comments come amid a wave of celebrity endorsements and calls for voter participation. Artists like Stevie Nicks and Jamie Lee Curtis have been vocal in encouraging people to vote. Others, such as Taylor Swift and Charli XCX, have publicly endorsed Harris.

At a recent iHeart Radio Music Festival, Hayley Williams of Paramore also spoke out, condemning conservative agendas that target minority groups, and urging Americans to confront Trump’s policies at the polls.

In 2016, Trump’s “nasty woman” remark aimed at Hillary Clinton inadvertently boosted Jackson’s 1986 hit “Nasty.”
