John Legend says his 8-year-old daughter feels a special connection to Kamala Harris.

Luna, the eldest child of the Grammy-winning star and Chrissy Teigen, is Black and Asian like Harris. Legend says when Luna looks at the current U.S. vice president, she sees part of herself.

“[Luna] is so excited to see someone who’s Black and Asian like she is, [and] a woman like she is — so she’s looking at [Kamala] like, ‘This is me’ up there,” Legend tells The Hollywood Reporter. “For her to see that, of course, is really inspiring, and she’s excited, and she can’t imagine why anyone would vote for Donald Trump, but that’s another issue.”
