TikToker Blaire Allison has clarified that she does not support Kamala Harris after appearing at the vice president's town hall with Oprah Winfrey last week.

A TikToker clarified that she does not support Kamala Harris after appearing at the vice president’s town hall with Oprah Winfrey last week.

Last week, at Winfrey’s town hall with Harris in Michigan, a video of Blaire Allison discussing the high cost of living was shown.

“I don’t understand how people can afford to live in these times,” Blaire said in the clip shown at Thursday’s event, which Blaire originally posted in November 2023.

But the right-wing influencer has now shared that she does not support Harris and did not give permission for her video to be used in the campaign broadcast.

“So I got my four seconds of fame on the Oprah Winfrey show and out of all the people who could have been her guests, let me show you who it was,” Braise, a Donald Trump supporter, said in a new TikTok clip while pointing to an image of Harris during the town hall.

Blaire then imitated Harris’ gestures, mocking the Democrat, and added: “To my Americans: let me make something perfectly clear, okay? I do not support Harris for president.

‘I want you to take the burden off of who’s been in the White House for the last three and a half years. OK?’

“As I stand here today, on this stage, standing on this stage today, the day after yesterday, I just want you to know, okay, my position and my stance today is that I do not support Harris for president.”

Blaire’s video calling out Harris has been viewed more than 300,000 times on TikTok and more than two million times on X.

In a follow-up TikTok, Blaire said she had “no idea” her video would play during Winfrey’s conversation with the Democratic presidential nominee.

“I’ve made it very clear that I do not support Kamala Harris at all,” the right-wing influencer said.

“I would like to see rules requiring national television shows to get permission before using a creator’s content. Or at the very least, they should notify the creator before airing it on national television.”

Winfrey recreated her popular talk show for one night only last week to campaign for Harris’ White House bid.

Harris sought a boost with persuadable and less motivated voters as she went on a livestream to focus on her plans to cut costs for the middle class, restore the national right to abortion and address gun violence.

The event, billed as “Unite for America,” sought to harness the same energy of Winfrey’s long-running talk show, which boosted best-seller lists and allowed celebrities to share their softer sides and ordinary people to share stories of struggle and inspiration.

It was a who’s who of Hollywood’s biggest stars, including Bryan Cranston, Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, Jennifer Lopez, Tracee Ellis Ross, Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep, who joined in over Zoom.

The event comes as Harris is working to continue sharing her biography and governing philosophy with voters during her abbreviated presidential campaign, with early voting already underway in some states.

Winfrey ended by calling on “all decent people, all caring people” to back Harris, saying of Trump: “We are better than this.”
