Vice President Kamala Harris has been making quite the splash lately, with her recent livestream hosted by none other than Oprah Winfrey stirring up buzz across the internet. As Harris works to secure her spot in the White House, she’s got Hollywood’s A-listers backing her up.
Kamala Harris is no stranger to the spotlight, but this event was one for the books. Oprah’s high-profile production brought out the big names and the big guns as the VP addressed everything from abortion rights to gun control. Joining her was another beloved celebrity, Meryl Streep.
Meryl Streep’s Presidential Oops Moment
At this star-studded event, Meryl Streep joined in the livestream of ‘Unite for America‘ to offer her support. Giggling as she greeted Kamala Harris with, “Hello, President Harris,” the room lit up with laughter.
While it seemed like an offhand remark, Streep quickly followed up with. “From my mouth to God’s ear,” she said. It felt like the seasoned actress knew exactly what she was doing. After all, who’s better at playing out a perfectly timed “oops” moment than Meryl Streep herself?
Now, here’s where things get even more interesting. Harris, without missing a beat, responded to the moment with her usual poise. Instead of deflecting, Harris embraced the casual slip with a smile. Whether intentional or not, Streep’s greeting certainly had social media buzzing.

But it wasn’t all fun and games at this event. Winfrey’s livestream was packed with tear-jerking stories and sobering moments. Winfrey pulled in heartbreaking stories, like Shanette, whose daughter, Amber Nicole Thurman, died after a preventable abortion-related complication.
The emotional moment had the audience, both in-studio and online, in tears, as Shanette fought through her pain to share her daughter’s story. “I want you all to know that Amber was not a statistic,” Shanette said. “She was loved by a family, a strong family.“

Harris, deeply moved, responded with heartfelt sympathy, saying, “I’m just so sorry.” She highlighted how cases like Amber’s, tied directly to the controversial Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, are preventable tragedies.
The Democratic nominee didn’t hold back, putting the blame on her political rival, former President Donald Trump, for stacking the Supreme Court with anti-abortion judges. Streep’s casual president comment might have stolen the show for a moment, but the emotional weight of the night remained firmly in the stories shared.
