Lady Gaga and John Legend are set to lend their star power to the closing days of Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.

The singers will be out on the road with the Democrat candidate and running mate Kamala Harris for events in the crucial battleground state of Pennsylvania.

Lady Gaga will join the Democratic nominee and Dr Jill Biden when they campaign at several events in Pittsburgh on Monday.

Mr Biden will do a drive-in event with the African-American community in the city before attending an Election Night Eve event, where Lady Gaga will appear.

The singer took to Twitter to say she was excited to go to Pittsburgh, where she visited her grandmother as a youngster.

Pennsylvania has emerged as one of the most important of the battleground states, with Mr Biden holding a narrow lead in polling ahead of election day.

John Legend will join Mr Biden’s running mate, Kamala Harris, and her husband Doug Emhoff in Philadelphia.

The musician voted and campaigned for Senator Elizabeth Warren during the Democratic primaries, but has thrown his weight behind Mr Biden’s campaign since.
