‘Not the own you think it is’: Singer who campaigned for Kamala tells fans to watch ‘Idiocracy’

Star power did very little to boost Vice President Kamala Harris, but it appears that celebrities did not learn their lesson at the ballot box.

Singer Katy Perry, born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, was among those who openly supported Harris, even performing at a rally ahead of Election Day.

Needless to say, this invited some pretty vicious mockery from X users:

You don’t realize you’re contributing to it?

It reminds me of the last 4 years.

I voted for Trump in Pennsylvania.

Funny how you don’t realize this actually applies to your side of the aisle. Or how about watch Don’t look up. Accurately describes the left to a tee.

It’s funny because I’ve actually referenced Idiocracy so many times when talking about you people electing a senile guy with a cackling word salad VP who then somehow runs for POTUS with a man who stuffs tampons in boys’ restrooms lol. You wanna see Idiocracy? Look in the mirror.
