After Kamala Harris was accused of using a Bluetooth device to cheat during her debate with Donald Trump, a company that manufactures earrings similar to what she wore has responded.
Â
In order to help her throughout the ninety-minute debate with Republican opponent Donald Trump on Tuesday night, Harris—who has previously stated that Bluetooth headphones present a “security risk”—was accused of donning earbuds concealed as pearl earrings.
Critics argued the gold pearl loops which Harris, 59, has worn before and are believed to be from Tiffany’s, are actually a pair of smart audio earrings manufactured by German start-up company NOVA due to their uncanny similarities.
The managing director of Icebach Sound, a company that manufactures NOVA, Malte Iversen, claims he is unwilling to confirm or deny whether the earrings are his.
‘We do not know whether Mrs Harris wore one of our products. The resemblance is striking and while our product was not specifically developed for the use at presidential debates, it is nonetheless suited for it,’ Iversen said in a statement.
Afterwards, he made light of Harris’ rival by suggesting that Trump give him a chance to settle the score.
‘To ensure a level playing field for both candidates, we are currently developing a male version and will soon be able to offer it to the Trump campaign. The choice of colour is a bit challenging though, as orange does not go well with a lot of colours,’ Iversen told Just the News.
For the first time, Harris and Trump engaged in a contentious discussion on Tuesday, September 10. Throughout the competition, the vice president teased the Republican candidate by criticising his economic policies, refusing to accept his defeat in the 2020 race, and even his actions at rallies.
