Former U.S. Vice President and 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and husband Doug Emhoff took in some Broadway shows for Valentine's Day weekend. Entering the Majestic Theatre to see six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald in Gypsy February 16, Harris and Emhoff got the performance's first standing ovation, with her fellow audience members chanting "Ka-ma-la" until the musical's iconic overture began.

Harris and Emhoff also saw Louis Armstrong biomusical A Wonderful World, catching the February 15 performance at Studio 54. See the couple's backstage visit at that musical below, thanks to a Facebook post from book writer Aurin Squire.
