Midterm elections are underway in the US and several celebrities have already shared on which candidate they are supporting this year. From Harry Styles to Chris Pratt to Cher to Selena Gomez to Katy Perry, - celebs have chosen their candidates and extended their support on social media.

On Sunday, Chris Pratt backed billionaire Rick Caruso in the Los Angeles race for mayor.

Caruso was previously registered as a Republican. He is facing Congresswoman Karen Bass in Tuesday's midterms. Bass is in her sixth term representing the 37th Congressional District following re-election in November 2020. Bass and Caruso are running to replace termed-out mayor Eric Garcetti.

Rob Schneider took to Twitter on Monday to endorse Arizona Republican candidate Kari Lake.

"My family left California & moved to the free state of Arizona because individual liberties were trampled in the guise of liberalism which was just disguised authoritarianism," his tweet said. "The lives of Americans have been made more difficult under these Dem run states. I’m voting for Kari Lake," Schneider concluded.

Comedian and TV host Jimmy Kimmel, who has been a democrat supporter, stated on Friday that he was supporting Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez Masto in her tight re-election bid against Republican candidate Adam Laxalt.

"Georgia voters: I am campaigning for Stacey Abrams for Governor! We’ve seen how hard Stacey has worked for ALL Georgians," Legend tweet read. "So now, let’s make history on November 08. VOTE!"

Legend also voiced his support for Ohio Senate candidate Tim Ryan. Ryan took to Twitter last month to share a video of Legend asking people to vote for the politician.

Cher is endorsing not one but two political candidates in the upcoming midterm elections. Cher endorsed Kathy Hochul for governor of New York and Catherine Cortez Masto for Senate.

"In this election, what happens in Vegas won't stay in Vegas," Cher said in her video. It will affect the entire country," she said in her endorsement video for Cortez Masto.
