Trump claimed Beyonc\u00e9 was paid around $11 million to appear at a rally without performing, causing the crowd to boo. He also alleged that Rev. Al Sharpton and Oprah Winfrey received $600,000 and $3 million respectively, calling the payments illegal endorsements.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"516\" data-end=\"933\">Harris\u2019 campaign strongly denied the accusations. A spokesperson refuted the viral rumor about Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s alleged $10 million payout, stating that she participated as a concerned mother, not a paid celebrity. Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s media company received only about $165,000, while Oprah\u2019s Harpo Productions and Sharpton\u2019s organization were paid significantly less than Trump claimed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"935\" data-end=\"1192\">Trump\u2019s accusations have not been backed by any evidence or official investigation. News outlets, including <em data-start=\"1043\" data-end=\"1053\">Newsweek<\/em>, have reported the claims as unsubstantiated. FEC records do not support Trump\u2019s assertion that the payments were criminal or misreported.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1194\" data-end=\"1434\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Despite the political uproar, no legal action has been taken, and no official agency has accused Harris or the celebrities of wrongdoing. As of now, Trump\u2019s dramatic claims remain unverified and contradicted by public campaign finance data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent Truth Social post,
