Hillary Clinton just got support from, arguably, the biggest megastar in the world: Beyonc?.
At a fundraiser in Manhattan, numerous celebrities showed up to support presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The event was hosted by music mogul L.A. Reid. Other celebs in attendance include Sharon Osbourne and ?Meghan Trainor.
The support of Beyonc??could be huge, as you would have to live under a rock to not understand the power and influence that Mrs. Carter has. She is especially huge in the women?and black communities, two huge groups Clinton will count on for support in her aspirations for the White House.
The Clinton team is obviously shoving this support in everyone’s face AND I LOVE IT! The Hillary Clinton twitter account tweeted:
Say you’ll Bey on Team #Hillary2016, too: http://t.co/X1Jyv1CdKw pic.twitter.com/qRVZCONXig

Beyonc? and husband, rap legend Jay Z, have been involved in many socially active things throughout their career. Both helped President Obama in his efforts for re-election and we all remember Beyonce’s amazing performances at both of Obama’s inaugurations.
This fundraiser was one of three, which together are estimated to bring in over $1 million. Hillary will have to keep pace in the fundraising game if she wants to keep a leg up on the competition. Republicans always raise money and getting help from Hollywood is a huge advantage for Democrats in recent years.
Beyonc? clearly has a hugely recognizable name and gigantic fan base, so it will be interesting to see how the Clinton campaign actually utilizes this megastar in the months and year leading up to the 2016 Presidential election.
