Their endorsement came on National Voter Registration Day, as campaigns and celebrities have tried to promote iwillvote.com and other sites to register, particularly among young and first-time voters.

Eilish endorsed Joe Biden in 2020 and appeared at the Democratic National Convention.

Last week, superstar Taylor Swift endorsed Harris minutes after the Harris-Donald Trump debate, leading to an uptick in voter registration. Tom Bonier, senior adviser to data firm Target Smart, wrote on X that there was a four- to five-times increase in registration in the days afterward. Swift also had directed followers to a voter registration site, and also urged registration during an appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards.
