The pop star made her announcement in an Instagram post signed as "Childless Cat Lady" - a reference to comments by Trump's running mate JD Vance.

Her post, breaking her silence on the 2024 vote, explained: "I'm voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them."

Swift, who also backed Democratic President Joe Biden in 2020, went on to call Harris a "steady-handed, gifted leader".

She added: "I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos."
