Celebs’ Get Out The Message: Don’t Vote (VIDEO)
Posted on October 2nd, 2008 by Hot Momma
Leonardo DiCaprio, Halle Berry, Jennifer Aniston, Tobey Maguire, Eva Longoria Parker, Ellen DeGeneres, Forest Whitaker, Dustin Hoffman, Demi Moore, Sarah Silverman, Jonah Hill, Ashton Kutcher, Courteney Cox, Laura Linney, Natalie Portman, Jamie Foxx, Usher, Kyra Sedgwick and will.i.am. are using reverse psychology to get young people into voting booths on election day.
In a new public service announcement that hit YouTube and other online outlets Wednesday, DiCaprio says: “Please — just don’t vote.” Others echo his plea: “Don’t vote.”
But the stars soon twist the message: Voting is a civic duty and the only way to effect change.
“I mean, seriously, … after this whole video — if you’re not gonna vote, I don’t even know what to say. … You know you have to vote,” says DiCaprio, who produced the PSA. The footage, which was filmed at the Titanic star’s Los Angeles home, also features funnywoman Sarah Silverman, who tried to lighten the mood of the message, telling citizens to forward the video to their pals, and urging them to spread the “must-vote” message until it’s “rampant like herpes but for a positive”.
