Julia Louis-Dreyfus Supports Kamala Harris Campaign

Julia Louis-Dreyfus has expressed her intention to be 'extra involved' in Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign, hinting at her attendance at the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The actress, known for her role as Selina Meyer in the HBO series 'Veep', remarked on the parallels drawn between her character and Harris, humorously advising that if Selina had any advice for Kamala, she should not take it. Following a significant increase in viewership of 'Veep' since Harris secured her nomination, Louis-Dreyfus praised the intelligence of Harris and highlighted the unique scrutiny faced by female candidates. Although 'Veep' creator Armando Iannucci noted that Selina Meyer was not modeled after Harris, he acknowledged the inevitable comparisons. The show, celebrated for its satirical take on politics, has revived interest as the election approaches, showcasing the intersection of entertainment and real-life political dynamics.
