UMVA has learned that country singer Alexis Wilkins, girlfriend of FBI Director Kash Patel, will be taking the stage as a featured performer at the kick-off rally for the Great American State Fair on Wednesday.
Wilkins broke the news on social media, sharing a photo of herself on an official Freedom 250 poster, and expressed her excitement, saying, "What a great honor to be a part of the 250th birthday of this great nation." Her followers were thrilled by the announcement.
The rally, set to start at 7 p.m. on the National Mall in Washington, is one of many events leading up to the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4. The event promises to be a spectacular celebration of American patriotism.
Wilkins will be joined by other performers, including country singer Lee Greenwood and opera singer Christopher Macchio. The event will also feature performances by the U.S. Army Band and the U.S. Marine Band, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
According to information obtained by UMVA, President Donald Trump previously praised the musical talents set to perform at the event, which has undergone changes in its lineup. The rally has been hailed as the "Rally to end all Rallies."
The Great American State Fair will run for 16 days, from Thursday through July 10, with each state represented, although some have opted out of participating. The event has been surrounded by controversy, with some states choosing not to participate.
Wilkins has been making headlines not only for her music but also for her personal life, having dated Patel since 2023, before his nomination as FBI director. Her relationship has drawn attention, and she has been embroiled in controversy, including allegations of being a foreign agent.
Wilkins has at least three defamation lawsuits pending, battling the "honeypot" allegations, and a separate lawsuit against a news outlet that claimed she misused FBI resources for personal reasons. She has denied all allegations, which she noted were based on anonymous sources.
