Elton Slams U.S. 'Misogynistic Attitudes' at Hillary Concert
Originally posted 04/10/2008 12:30PM
Wednesday night's all right for stumping!
The latest celebrity to take sides in this year's Presidential election is Sir Elton John, whose "Elton and Hillary: One Night Only" concert in New York City Wednesday raised $2.5 million for Clinton's campaign. "I've always been a Hillary supporter," the singer told the crowd at Radio City Music Hall. "There is no one more qualified to lead America."
The British singer, who, of course, is not allowed to vote in this country, played his hits "Border Song" and "Your Song," adding: "I'm amazed by the misogynistic attitudes of some of the people in this country. And I say to hell with them...I love you Hillary, I'll be there for you."
Former president Bill Clinton and daughter Chelsea joined Hillary at the Radio City Music Hall event, where she addressed her race against fellow Democratic candidate, Barack Obama, telling the crowd: "What I want you to know is I'm still standing, and I believe this country is worth fighting for."

Casting the Presidential Wannabes: Meryl Streep Voted Most Likely to Play Hillary
Originally posted 04/08/2008 04:40PM
The Queen got Helen Mirren. So, who should play Hillary Clinton on the
screen?
Meryl Streep, who played a U.S. senator ruthlessly trying to get her son to
the White House in the 2004 remake of The Manchurian Candidate, was the top pick among 500 women surveyed nationwide in Lifetime Television's latest
"Every Woman Counts" polling. In results tabulated Tuesday, Glenn Close was the runner-up, with Diane Keaton placing third.
Clinton's rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Barack Obama,
told Tyra Banks in September that he initially thought Denzel Washington
would make a fine Obama. "But then somebody pointed out that, with my ears,
it might have to be Will Smith," Obama added.

Brad & Angelina Related to Presidential Hopefuls
Originally posted 03/26/2008 09:50AM
Their family just keeps expanding.
According to a respected genealogical organization, Brad Pitt is related to presidential candidate Barack Obama, while Angelina Jolie can welcome Hillary Clinton into the fold.
If the Democratic debates are any indication, extended family dinners could be very awkward.

Jack Nicholson Backs Hillary, Scarlett Sings for Obama
Originally posted 02/04/2008 12:50PM
As that "great determinator" Super Tuesday quickly draws near, some new high-powered celebrity endorsements – as well as additional bolstering by loyal top-name supporters – are adding further rhetoric to the race.
Among the latest names to rally 'round a hopeful is Jack Nicholson, who on Monday revealed his support of Democrat Hillary Clinton on the Rick Dees in the Morning Show on Los Angeles's Movin' 93.9 FM.
Nicholson's move, which puts him in the same league as longtime Clinton boosters Barbra Streisand and Danny DeVito, follows Sunday's appearance by Oprah Winfrey at a Los Angeles rally for Barack Obama. (Also over the weekend, celebs including Scarlett Johansson lent their singing voices to "Yes, We Can," a YouTube music video, shown below, supporting Obama.)
