Kamala Harris signs on with Hollywood talent agency

Former Vice President Harris is making one of her first post-2024 White House bid moves, signing with Creative Artists Agency (CAA).
The talent agency will represent Harris "in all areas, focusing on speaking engagements and publishing," CAA said in a Tuesday statement.
"CAA will work closely with Harris on her post-White House initiatives, creating strategic opportunities that expand her platform in support of the issues she has championed throughout her decades-long career in public service," the Los Angeles-based company said.
It's not the first time Harris has turned to CAA -- the entertainment firm represented her when she was California's senator, before becoming vice president.
Former President Biden is also represented by CAA, with an announcement earlier this month that the ex-commander-in-chief had signed with the agency. CAA also represents former President Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama.
While Harris has offered few hints about her plans since losing November's election to President Trump, she would be the Democratic front-runner for governor of California if she jumped into the state's 2026 race, according to a survey released last week by Emerson College Polling/Inside California Politics/The Hill.
The 60-year-old former VP brushed off questions about a potential gubernatorial bid earlier this month, saying, "I have been home for two weeks and three days."
"My plans are to be in touch with my community, to be in touch with the leaders and figure out what I can do to support them,” she said after visiting areas in California impacted by devastating wildfires.
