Jessica Alba was bashed by fans for posting an awkward video of Kamala Harris speaking to her about the power of Latina small businesses — while she stood beside her in a matching pant suit, looking uncomfortable.
Many of Alba’s 20.6 million Instagram followers slammed the post, which garnered over 12,000 comments, for being “super creepy,” a “train wreck” and a “desperate move.”
“I feel so sorry, Jessica has lost her mind,” one wrote of the actress, who has a net worth of $100 million.
“Cringe doesn’t even touch how painfully embarrassing this is,” another added.
“I thought this was an SNL skit,” another quipped of the clip, which was jointly posted to Harris’ Instagram page.
In the video, Harris — who has 18.5 million Instagram followers — starts off by saying, “First of all, Latina small businesses are the fastest growing in the country,” to which Alba replies, “Yes they are, yes they are,” and snaps her fingers in the air.
“But included in that is that we don’t lack for people who have ambition and have aspirations and dreams and an idea that is a great idea and work ethic,” the presidential candidate continues, and Alba just shakes her head in agreement. “But not everybody has access to the capital.”
Alba responds, “So true.”
Others pointed out that Alba, 43, looked “uncomfortable.”
“This is soo desperate and Jessica Alba standing there looking lost doesn’t help,” one commenter observed.
Some said they would not only unfollow Alba, a California native of Mexican heritage, but would stop supporting her baby and beauty company, Honest Co.
“Been following you for years, but finally unfollowed, enjoy your paycheck,” one said.
“Never buying Honest products again because of your support for this woman and the damage she has done to our country,” another said.
Harris was criticized in some comments for not detailing her plan to support small businesses.
“Again she says she’s going to help small businesses but has failed to explain how,” one said.
“How will you get the small businesses funding or capital? How?” another asked.
“So she speaks to a millionaire actress instead of a real Latina small business owner who started from nothing,” added another.
The vice president, a California native of Jamaican and Indian heritage, was also roasted for her monologue about Latina women.
“Is she Latina now,” one quipped, while another added, “Soon she will be Japanese.”
Some also detected another one of Harris’ ever-changing accents.
“There she goes changing her voice to have a fake accent. Stop it Scamala,” one said.
Instagrammers also poked fun at their clothes, with comments like, “Did they get their matching pant suits at JC Penny?”
