Taylor Swift has publicly endorsed Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden.
The You Belong With Me singer backed Biden on Twitter, saying that she also spoke to V Magazine about the decision to reveal her political allegiances.
"I spoke to @vmagazine about why I’ll be voting for Joe Biden for president. So apt that it’s come out on the night of the VP debate. Gonna be watching and supporting @KamalaHarris by yelling at the tv a lot. And I also have custom cookies," Swift wrote on Twitter.

“The change we need most is to elect a president who recognizes that people of color deserve to feel safe and represented, that women deserve the right to choose what happens to their bodies, and that the LGBTQIA+ community deserves to be acknowledged and included. Everyone deserves a government that takes global health risks seriously and puts the lives of its people first. The only way we can begin to make things better is to choose leaders who are willing to face these issues and find ways to work through them," Swift told the publication.
"I will proudly vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in this year’s presidential election. Under their leadership, I believe America has a chance to start the healing process it so desperately needs," she added.
This comes after Sarah Silverman, Mark Ruffalo, and a number of other celebrities posed nude in a public service announcement encouraging voter registration.
In a new video released Wednesday by the nonpartisan organization RepresentUs, Silverman, Ruffalo, and other famous names such as Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Tiffany Haddish, Josh Gad, Ryan Bathe, and Sacha Baron Cohen, who appeared in-character as fake Khazakstani ambassador Borat (and remained mercifully clothed).
Take a look at the footage in the video below:

The other celebs bared all in the footage, mostly only appeared in the video from the waist-up.
The nudist video also touched upon the subject of so-called naked ballots, which requires voters in 16 states to insert their mail-in ballots into two separate envelopes in order to be counted.
According to a report by Forbes on the video, the initiative follows a similar recent social media trend, which saw female lawmakers in Pennsylvania last month jokingly pose with mail-in ballots covering their chests.
