HOUSTON – There’s a new viral TikTok trend that has all stemmed from former President Donald Trump’s comments about Vice President Kamala Harris’ rally in Houston, which featured Beyonce Knowles and Kelly Rowland.

On Friday night hours after leaving Austin for a rally and a few hours after Kamala appeared on stage with Grammy-award-winner Beyonce, Trump took the stage at his rally in Michigan, repeatedly mocking Kamala.

“Kamala is at a dance party with Beyoncé,” he told the Michigan crowd.

Those comments sparked a viral trend on social media, where users started posting their experience at the rally to Trump’s sound.

More than 30,000 people were inside the Shell Energy Stadium Friday. The vice president’s team said it was their largest campaign event to date.

Several celebrities were also in attendance aside from Beyonce, including Kelly Rowland, Jessica Alba, Willie Nelson and Beyonce’s mother, Tina Knowles.

During her speech, Kamala focused on the medical fallout from the state’s strict abortion ban and put the blame squarely on Former President Donald Trump.

“Texas has a law now that offers a cash bounty for turning in someone who merely helped a friend or a family member get the care they need. In Texas, the law provides prison for life for healthcare providers for doing what they believe is in the best interest of their patients. In some counties in Texas, they have passed travel bans to prevent women from going to other states to receive care.”

Harris’s speech was just short of thirty minutes, and she ended it with this message:

“So, let’s remember Texas, your vote is your voice, and your voice is your power. So today I ask you, are you ready to make your voices heard? Do we trust women? Do we believe in reproductive freedom? Do we believe in the promise of America and are we ready to fight for it? And when we fight, we win.”
