Singer Beyonce and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, headlined a rally and concert in support of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in Cleveland on Friday night.Â
In a brief speech (video above), Beyonce talked about the importance of electing the nation’s first woman president, noting that less than 100 years ago, women didn’t have the right to vote.Â

Jay-Z, meanwhile, called GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump “divisive” and “not an evolved soul.”
“He cannot be my president,” Jay-Z said. “He cannot be our president. Once you divide us, you weaken us. We are stronger together.”
Meanwhile, with singer Katy Perry set to headline a concert for Clinton in Philadelphia on Saturday night, the Democratic nominee released a campaign ad featuring Perry’s hit song, “Roar.”Â
At a rally in Hershey, Pennsylvania on Friday night, Trump responded to Clinton’s star power by suggesting that he doesn’t need celebrities because he has “great ideas and great vision for our country.”
