(Reuters) -Beyonce will perform on the final night of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Thursday, entertainment website TMZ reported, citing multiple sources.
Vice President Kamala Harris will accept the Democratic Party nomination, which is also scheduled for Thursday.
Her campaign has declined to comment on any special guests.
Harris has adopted Beyonce’s “Freedom” as her campaign rally song, and took the stage in Chicago on Monday to the tune, increasing speculation that Beyonce would perform.
Beyonce has reportedly given Harris permission to use the song. She has previously backed, Democrats, including U.S. President Joe Biden in the last election.
In a post ahead of the November 2020 presidential election, Beyonce posted a photo of herself on Instagram wearing a Biden-Harris face mask and encouraged her millions of followers to vote. “Come thru, Texas! #VOTE,” she wrote.
Country band The Chicks will perform the National Anthem at the convention, organizers said earlier. The Chicks performed with Beyonce at the 2016 Country Music Awards.
