In June 2024, Kimmel led a similar Los Angeles event to raise money for then-President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign. Celebrity guests included George Clooney, Julia Roberts and former President Barack Obama, and the event reportedly raised over $30 million.
The event later went viral after a clip showed what appeared to be Obama guiding Biden off a stage. Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race one month later.
Kimmel continued to raise funds for Democrats, lending his name and endorsement to former Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign.
