Move over, Taylor Swift: There’s a new “childless cat lady” endorsement for Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign from “Delaware’s most famous person.”
Wilmington native and actress Aubrey Plaza posted a photo of herself on Instagram Wednesday morning with the caption “HARRIS 🇺🇸 WALZ” and tagged Harris’ campaign page.
Plaza used a photo of herself from 2014 with the late Grumpy Cat in her lap.
Grumpy Cat (real name Tardar Sauce) was an internet celebrity cat from the 2010s known for her permanently frowny face. It was a nod to Swift’s instantly viral endorsement from Tuesday night, which featured a pic from her Time magazine photo shoot of her with her cat, Benjamin Button. Plaza voiced the part of Grumpy Cat in a Christmas special the pair filmed together in 2014.
It’s the latest in a monthslong pattern of Harris supporters who are cat owners embracing what was meant to be a slight from former President Donald Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, calling Harris a “childless cat lady.”
Plaza is hailed as a hometown hero in Delaware, often praising her time with the Wilmington Drama League and Delaware Theatre Company as formative. She attended Ursuline Academy, an all-girls Catholic school, and later went to improv school in Philadelphia.
She’s also the namesake of “The Aubrey Plaza Plaza,” an unofficial name for the pedestal that held a now-removed Christopher Columbus statue. The site has its own Google Maps page.
In 2018, Plaza was named the biggest star from the second-smallest state, according to 750 Delaware News Journal readers. She outranked President Joe Biden, and the rivalry of sorts has become a running joke between the pair. Biden made a guest appearance on Saturday Night Live last year when Plaza hosted the show.
144I love that this is how I learned Biden is from Delaware.
22Biden was well known back in his Senate days for commuting from Delaware to DC on Amtrak.

Thank you for posting this.

She is my favorite actress, so this is pleasant to see. If you haven't seen her work in Legion, I strongly recommend it. Worth watching for her performance alone - genius level.
40Man I wish Marvel wouldn't pretend that show never existed. It's so fucking good, absolute mind fuck. And given the connection to X-Men, they could easily fold it in or at least make a one-off film or something.
Edit: this might be a spoiler for Legion (and Deadpool 3 I guess), so be warned... But seeing as Deadpool 3 had Professor X's
daughtertwin sister, they could easily bring in his son. I wonder if they made a conscious choice not to make Legion the antagonist in that movie just in case they want to use the character again for something else?22Yeah, I normally avoid and hate all the superhero stuff, because it's generally all the same. Legion was not though. Legion was different and we'll executed. I wish we could see more like it.

Legion is my favorite show, period. She's phenomenal in it.

Love to see it
14Likin her more everyday
5If you like raunchy comedies and Audrey Plaza, watch "Dirty Grandpa" (not Bad Grandpa, that stars Knoxville). Audrey is gold in it, and the movie is hilarious from beginning to end.
5This the same shill in the wood pulp drinking ads going against sustainable alternatives to Milk?
Yeah… if she had any morals she would have come out in support of Biden before Kamala ran.
But no. You can only support democracy when it’s marketable instead of seeing the real threat to democracy that trump is.
-17People are still screaming SUPPORT BIDEN even after the senile old fuck dropped out because he is a senile old fuck.
0the actual threat to democracy is saying you either vote for the corpse or you get full on fascism.
instead, for once, they listened to the people. pretty fucking democratic, ironically not very usual for the democratic party.

God, I love Aubrey so much. If she were to want kids I would be willing to provide them, and if she owns cats I would feed them and take them to the veterinarian if required.
-19Go home, Elon. You’re stoned.

Don't forget she's a zionist
-45I just read the letter she signed. I honestly didn't see anything egregious.
Hamas is bad.
Palestine is good.
Hostages need to be freed.
Israel and Palestine need to both be free and live in peace.What am I supposed to be upset about?
31That some people don't support the displacement genocide of Palestine or Israel.
