President Joe Biden is set to join former President Barack Obama at a star-studded Hollywood fundraiser next month, along with George Clooney and Julia Roberts.

The fundraiser comes after the Biden campaign reportedly raised $26 million at another star-studded fundraiser in New York in March, which the campaign said was a single event. announced that it had set a fundraising record.
Biden has repeatedly trailed former President Trump in polls, but his main advantage is cash fundraising and he could be overtaken if certain trends continue. According to NBC News:
Biden’s campaign raised $43.8 million that month and ended March with $85.5 million in cash on hand, according to the latest filings with the Federal Election Commission. That’s nearly triple what the Trump campaign earned during the same period. The Biden campaign’s finances, factoring in the Democratic National Committee, are nearly twice as large as President Trump and the Republican National Committee: $131 million versus $67 million.
Team Biden’s strong march was fueled by a fundraiser by the three presidents at Radio City Music Hall. But President Trump quickly hit back with his own expensive affair in Palm Beach, Florida, in early April. His campaign said the event raised $50.5 million, some of which will likely be reflected in the next FEC filing.
Mr. Biden, an increasingly unpopular president, relies heavily on celebrity support rather than grassroots support. As the Associated Press recently highlighted, Biden raised $26 million in fundraising events last month with the help of star-studded talent.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York was the first to stand up, to the excitement of about 5,000 supporters. Celebrities also lined up to advocate for Biden. Lizzo belted out her hit song “About Dumb Time,” and host Mindy Kaling joked that she was happy to be in the same room as “a bunch of rich people” and said they’d “raise taxes.” He added that he was very happy to be supporting a president who has made such a commitment. ”

The fundraiser had different tiers of access depending on donor generosity. Other celebrities in attendance include Queen Latifah, Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo, and Lea Michele. Tickets were sold for as low as $225.
