Company says Kamala Harris’ debate earrings strikingly similar to its Bluetooth device, offers to make ones for Trump- Kamala Harris’ debate earrings trigger conspiracy theories among Trump supporters - Some conspiracy-minded supporters of former President Donald Trump have claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris got secret — and unfair — help in her Tuesday night debate against the Republican nominee.
The theory goes like this: Harris’ earrings contained a clandestine Bluetooth device that enabled her to be coached by unseen aides during the ABC News forum in Philadelphia, in flagrant violation of the rules set out by the Disney-owned network.One X user dubbed The Maverick Approach, a self-described “alternative news source,” peddled a claim early Wednesday that Harris had been fitted with a pair of smart earrings developed by a German company.
“There’s a major issue with this debate,” they posted. “I told myself she was fed what to say during the debate and my hunch was right. Nova is the world’s first and only wireless earphone earrings.”
However, the NOVA H1 Audio Earrings look very different than the ones that Harris donned during the verbal bout, except for the fact that both include pearls.
The veep’s actual earrings appeared to be a gold version of the Double Pearl Hinged Earrings from Tiffany & Co, which is not known to include electronics in its luxury jewelry.
The clip-on NOVA H1 Audio Earrings sell for about $625 apiece and are able to “project sound from inside the pearl straight into your ear canal,” according to its Kickstarter page, which appears to have been dormant since last year and includes comments suggesting people hadn’t received the product despite chipping in cash.
“These Earrings are fully packed with the latest technology embedded in real pearls to provide you with music, phone calls and digital assistants all day long,” the site added.
In the past, Harris has bashed Bluetooth earpieces as a security threat and has been spotted using wired earbuds on the campaign trail.
Despite the evidence, the theory was amplified in the r/conspiracy Subreddit and widely disseminated on social media.
The Maverick Approach’s post quickly notched nearly 100,000 views before they appeared to concede the hoax.
“I can’t believe how easy it is to troll and get everybody worked up,” The Maverick Approach later wrote on X.
“This is how politicians do it. FYI she was terrible and was terrible all on her own. She didn’t need any help with that! If she did have an earpiece, that’s even worse the fact she had help and still loss [sic].”In both the 2020 and 2016 election cycles, similar theories spread on social media claiming President Biden and Hillary Clinton were using earpieces during their debates against Trump.
Fact-checking websites quickly shot down those bizarre claims.
Wednesday morning, Trump himself suggested that Harris had received advance knowledge of what would be discussed.

00:00While the internet may be saying that it's a conspiracy to think that
00:05The manufacturer doesn't seem to think it's a conspiracy
00:08But as we go, oh, let's go right here to the manufacturers website. And what do they offer? Oh
00:15From the 2024 presidential election you can get your own
00:20Ones that were used in the 20. So the manufacturer themselves is offering what was used in the 2044 presidential election
00:28Special edition
00:30But you're right. It was it's just a conspiracy. Let's go through several interviews. Wow, those look very familiar
00:38And as we go through more and more of her speak up there they are again
00:43Wow
00:44Those look very familiar
00:46She is on TV show gosh, it's almost like we've seen those before it's about a year old
00:51Well in time in which we to be a year ago. Oh look there
00:56There that campaigns though, oh my goodness, she loves these earrings there they are again
01:04Look at that. Oh
01:06My goodness. Oh my goodness looking here at this campaign stop. Oh
01:12Wow, there they are again
01:16Yes
01:18Well, we might have fallen out and hit her head twice. Oh, there they are again
01:23There they are again
01:26Now this was a streaming down in Texas. So that it's very grainy, but sure looks like them
01:35It was lagging on their end when I recorded
01:44She's wearing him here as well
01:50She's wearing him there and she's wearing them here
01:55Virginia looks familiar
01:58She's wearing him there
02:01Good guy looks so familiar
02:04Force to
02:08There we go, we see him again
02:12Found that at the beginning
02:14They're probably just a family heirloom. That must be what it is, right?
02:17They are just some special family heirloom has been coming down prices for basis. They are right
02:24There. Yeah, I love those. Okay, this review was done by
02:31Wi-Fi hi-fi
02:32calm and
02:35It's a review of those earrings right there. They're the art. Do they look familiar? Do they look familiar?
02:46That they even have a pretty liberal looking model for them
02:52Let's read this review
02:54Nova h1 audio earrings are wireless earphones and jewelry in one
02:59The Nova h1 audio rings earrings from Nova products gmbh are an interesting new concept
03:04They are designed to look and be worn like clip-on earrings, but they are actually wireless earbuds
03:10Much like bone conduction headphones that wrap around your neck or the back of your ears without having to be inserted into your ear canals
03:17These earbuds provide sound without physically blocking your ears. They also double as jewelry
03:23Here's a look at how they work or we're gonna skip their video as discussed in the video above they work using
03:29one-directional sound from the pearl
03:31Which comes in a variety of color options to the ear the directional sound technology ensures that only the wearer
03:39Here's the audio without distracting others
03:41Which would be very good if you're on stage or in a crowd or in an interview and since the buds don't actually go in
03:46your ears
03:48You can maintain a level of situational awareness
03:52What you might want hearing ambient noises with that said this also means there's no noise cancellation
03:59Capabilities should you want them?
04:02Each earring weighs about seven grams the same as a standard clip-on earring battery life bubble blah blah. You don't need pierced ears
04:10But the most important question is how do they sound I try to pair on for a short period of time and listen to a
04:16Song playing it's raining men by the weather girls
04:20They were easy to put on though, it's hard to tell how secure they were after wearing for long periods
04:24They can easily be pulled off and potentially fall off the ears
04:28If you were to pull a messenger bag over your head, for example, or put on a shirt
04:33So if you're doing some bedroom activities you want to be very careful which
04:38Rumor has it. That's probably one point in time when
04:43Madam vice president doesn't need instructions in her ears on what to do
04:47Audio wise the sound was very quiet
04:49Even though I was told the volume was set to high with that said it was in a loud and crowded ballroom
04:54So it isn't exactly the best setting to test a product like this now
05:00Does that make sense now? Maybe why they did not want to do?
05:06The taped interview in front of a crowd and why they didn't want to do any of the debates
05:17With an audience and now if you think about this for just a minute
05:22Go watch some of her campaign footage her speeches whenever the crowd is cheering and they're loud all she can do goes
05:33Because I can't hear what they're telling me to tell you and pay attention as well to her cadence when she's on
05:42script
05:44Because it's very
05:48Audio wise the sound is very quiet. Even though I was
05:55She'll only say a few words and then the next set of words
06:00Now you could say that's good verbal pausing for a speech
06:05But if you pay attention to the time in that verbal pause
06:08They're all different pause of time different time, but
06:12Well, the pausing is very different between each
06:18Set of words and
06:22When I'd listen to many of them I find that that time
06:26Seems to closely match
06:29How long it would take to say the next phrase she's going to say
06:36Nonetheless for something like quiet background music while you work or even go for a walk or run commute to work, etc
06:42Ah
06:44These might be an ideal as an all-day wear earbud for more discerning listening
06:49However, and making calls you'll probably want to switch to a better pair, but it's something you can wear all day every day
06:54These are more like modern-day Bluetooth headsets than they are a replacement for earbuds and they are quite fashionable, too
07:01Which is probably why?
07:03She's been wearing the same darn ones for or at least
07:07that same model
07:10For nearly as best I can tell about a year and a half possibly longer
07:18It is so good to be back in Michigan
07:20Listen, let me tell you I am clear the path to the White House runs right through this state and listen
07:26I am clear the path to the White House runs right through this state. I took on
07:32perpetrators
07:33Of all kinds I took on perpetrators of all kinds and had a summer job at McDonald's I
07:41Had a summer job at McDonald's
07:43So hear me when I say so hear me Detroit when I say I know Donald Trump's tight. I
07:51Know Donald Trump's tight
07:54Are we ready to fight for it?
07:59We ready to fight for it
08:06Today the business of our work is
08:11For the council to report on the work that has occurred since our last meeting across these areas
08:19We will today also discuss the work
08:22Yet ahead the work we must still do to continue to move forward
08:30She's moving forward she's continuing to move forward and with our endorsement once again
08:35We say unequivocally Kamala Harris 2024 for Democratic nominee. We're on her side
08:51You
09:21You
09:51You
