Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani appeared during PinkPantheress<\/a>\u2019 Brooklyn show just days before the mayoral election.<\/p>\n

The left-wing candidate will be on the ballot on November 4 to be the new Mayor of New York City, in the contest to replace the outgoing Democrat Eric Adams, and just 10 days before the election, he popped up at the PinkPantheress concert to urge people to get out their vote.<\/p>\n

On Friday night (October 24), the singer and musician kicked off her \u2018An Evening With PinkPantheress\u2019 North American tour with a show at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, and during a performance of \u2018True Romance\u2019 from her 2023 debut album \u2018Heaven Knows<\/a>\u2019, the video backdrop behind her had a surprise for fans.<\/p>\n

A pair of hands appeared on the screen, with \u201cOur Time Has Come\u201d and \u201cVote Nov. 4\u201d written on the two palms. As the camera pulled back, it revealed Mamdani, who was greeted with loud cheers from the crowd.<\/p>\n

Mamdani also popped up during Lucy Dacus\u2019 show at All Things Go in New York last month<\/a>. \u201cThis is what our city should feel like,\u201d he told the crowd. \u201cIt should be a city where trans New Yorkers are cherished, a city where our queer neighbours are celebrated, and a city where each and every New Yorker can be the fullest version of themselves. And it has to be a city that all of us can afford.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for PinkPantheress, her latest studio album was \u2018Fancy That<\/a>\u2019, which was released in May and later nominated for this year\u2019s Mercury Prize<\/a>. The album\u00a0scored a four-star review from\u00a0NME<\/a>, with Kyann-Sian Williams writing: \u201cWith \u2018Fancy That\u2019, PinkPantheress is kicking down the door to her next chapter \u2013 one that promises to be more adventurous than ever. She\u2019s no longer content with being the elusive girl behind the screen, proving she can shapeshift, push boundaries and still keep us hooked \u2013 all in under 20 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n

The star-studded remix album \u2018Fancy Some More?\u2019 arrived this month, featuring the likes of SEVENTEEN<\/a>,\u00a0JADE<\/a>,\u00a0Kylie Minogue<\/a>,\u00a0Sugababes<\/a> and\u00a0Zara Larsson<\/a>. NME awarded that one three stars<\/a>, noting: \u201c\u2019Fancy Some More?\u2019 is ambitious and kaleidoscopic, packed with heavyweight collaborators and wildly inventive reinterpretations, but it rarely recaptures the tight, unruly charm of \u2018Fancy That\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last month,\u00a0NME\u00a0attended PinkPantheress\u2019 show at the O2 Academy Brixton and\u00a0rated the gig four stars<\/a>: \u201cBy the end, when the cast bowed and hugged onstage, the night felt less like a polished pop spectacle and more like a madcap show-and-tell with a superstar host. It may not have reinvented the live experience, but it proved PinkPantheress\u2019 real gift: she knows how to turn a massive venue into something intimate, funny and unhinged.\u201d<\/p>\n
