AceShowbiz - Representation matters, as demonstrated by the profound encounter between eight-year-old Luna Teigen Stephens and Vice President Kamala Harris at the White House. Chrissy Teigen, Luna's mother, shared the unforgettable moment on Instagram, highlighting its inspirational impact.
"My heart is still glowing from this moment," Teigen wrote in her caption. "Luna and Harris, both half Asian and half Black, are tangible reminders of the power of representation for young girls."
The meeting not only inspired Luna but also her parents, Chrissy and John Legend. John recently debuted a new tattoo featuring the names of his youngest children, Esti and Wren, alongside Luna and Miles.
Teigen's activism for reproductive rights was further ignited by her own experience with pregnancy loss. She recently visited the Feminist Women's Health Center in Atlanta, witnessing the critical care and support provided despite restrictive laws.
During a Q&A session with Harris, Teigen addressed Luna directly from the stage, urging her to fight for justice and advocate for her rights. "Your body is your own, and nobody can take that away from you," she said.
The Cravings author's admiration for Harris extends beyond her personal connection. In a video clip shared on social media, Teigen's one-year-old daughter, Esti, flawlessly pronounced "Kamala," demonstrating that even toddlers can navigate the nuances of language and pronunciation.
