President Joe Biden is planning to use his upcoming State of the Union address to “reset” his image with voters — and if the jobs section of his campaign website is any indication of his priorities, he’ll be leaning a lot on celebrity backers.

Amid an onslaught of speculation about a potential second Taylor Swift endorsement of Biden, The Spectator scrolled through the Biden job board and found several interesting open positions, including a director of celebrity outreach role that will pay a lucky applicant up to $120,000.

In a tenor befitting of a scatterbrained president, the job posting is pretty confusing: it says that it is for the director and deputy director role in different places.

“The Biden For President campaign is seeking a Director of Celebrity Outreach to oversee the strategic integration of celebrities, artists and community influencers across campaign operations,” the listing reads under a heading for “Deputy Director of Celebrity Outreach.”

As if the relationship between Democratic politicians and celebrities wasn’t already close enough, prospective staffers ideally have “2 or more cycles of campaign experiencePrevious experience working in the entertainment industry [sic].”

It’s almost surprising how many high-level jobs remain unfilled this close to Election Day. Openings include chief of staff to analytics team, a duo of deputy research directors, director of digital partnerships, director of social communications, states policy director, state political and coalitions director, and many more, down to a series of internships that pay $17 an hour.

The website’s fine print also requires that staffers be “‘up to date’ on Covid-19 vaccination status as prescribed by the CDC as a condition of employment.” Applications also list optional diversity questions that inquire about race, preferred pronouns, membership of the LGBTQIA+ community, gender identity and veteran status.

Needless to say, whoever fills the role has a tough summer ahead of them: how could they possibly top the DNC’s celebrity version of “Fight Song” for 2016, or the Billy Porter-Stephen Stills follow-up in 2020?
