Cardi B faced an awkward teleprompter mishap at Kamala Harris&#8216; rally on Friday, and was forced to read her endorsement of the vice president from her phone.
The outspoken rapper was telling the packed crowd in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, that she &#8216;wasn&#8217;t going to vote&#8217; until the Vice-President entered the race against &#8216;bully&#8217; Trump.
The Grammy-winner then stopped in her tracks when the teleprompter suddenly had technical glitch.
For around a minute she stood on stage wondering how to respond as the audience cheered.

A member of staff then had to frantically run to give her a phone, so should could finish the remarks in the battleground state.
Both candidates held rallies within seven miles of each other last night in the Milwaukee area as part of a fevered final push for votes in swing-state Wisconsin&#8217;s largest county.
Milwaukee is home to the most Democratic votes in Wisconsin, but its conservative suburbs are where most Republicans live and are a critical area for Trump as he tries to reclaim the state he narrowly won in 2016 and lost in 2020.

Cardi B has endorsed Kamala Harris for President saying in her speech in Wisconsin that &#8216;women have to work 10 times harder
One reason for his defeat was a drop in support in those Milwaukee suburbs and an increase in Democratic votes in the city.
&#8216;I wasn&#8217;t gonna vote this year,&#8217; she said, before adding that Ms Harris taking over as the Democratic nominee changed her mind.
&#8216;She&#8217;s passionate, compassionate&#8230; and most of all she is not delusional,&#8217; she said.
She referred to Donald Trump as a &#8216;bully&#8217;.
&#8216;He said he&#8217;s gonna protect women whether they like it or not,&#8217; she says.
&#8216;If his definition of protection is not the freedom of choice&#8230; then I don&#8217;t want it. I&#8217;m not giving Donald Trump a second chance.&#8217;
Democrats know they must turn out voters in Milwaukee, also home to the state&#8217;s largest Black population, to counter Trump&#8217;s support in the suburbs and rural areas. Harris is hoping to replicate, and exceed, turnout from 2020 in the city, which voted 79 percent for Biden that year.

Cardi B speaks during a campaign rally for Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris at the Wisconsin State Fair
The musician dressed in white took the stage in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and immediately paused as the crowd cheered wildly.
&#8216;One second guys. One second!&#8217; she began as the crowd cheered her on.
She removed her white gloves and tried to begin speaking, but ultimately paused again after the teleprompter screen went blank.
&#8216;OK. So I don&#8217;t take lightly the call,&#8217; she began, before pausing. &#8216;I&#8217;m sorry guys, I&#8217;m a little nervous. I&#8217;m a little nervous guys, I&#8217;ve been waiting for this moment this whole life, my whole life.&#8217;
&#8216;I need patience over here, patience where are you girl?&#8217; she shouted. &#8216;I need patience over here!&#8217;
&#8216;Are we ready to make history?&#8217; she asked repeatedly.
Four of the past six presidential elections in Wisconsin have been decided by less than a point, or fewer than 23,000 votes.
It was absentee votes from Milwaukee, which typically are reported early in the morning after Election Day, that tipped Wisconsin for President Joe Biden in 2020.
After about 90 seconds of stalling, finally an aide rushed on stage to give her a phone with what looked like her prepared remarks on the screen.
&#8216;Now I took my time writing my speech, so I wanted to make sure I delivered it right,&#8217; she said.
Cardi B quickly regained confidence and read off her speech from the phone.
