Stars Sing and Cheer For Barack's Big Night

Molly — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 07:45:00 -0700

Invesco Field at Mile High was full of excited supporters out to watch Barack Obama's historic speech last night at the finale of the DNC in Denver. As expected, some big names took the stage and their seats as the Democratic presidential candidate accepted the party's nomination and gave his speech - Citizen was there, check out her thoughts on the scene! Obama wasn't the only rock star in the house as John Legend and Sheryl Crow both performed, as did Jennifer Hudson who sang the national anthem. Fergie wore her ridiculous sunglasses, while Jessica Alba and Cash looked proud to be there even if Honor is a bit too young for the actual event. The journey to election day will only get harder from here for Obama, but it looks like his Hollywood fans are ready to do what it takes to lend their support.

To see over 25 more images of celebrities at the convention including will.i.am, Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson, Chevy Chase, Rosario Dawson, Spike Lee, Kerry Washington, and others, just read more.

Ben Reunites With Jen and Talks Babies

PopSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 10:00:25 -0700

Ben Affleck spent his second day at the DNC helping pack boxes of food for the needy, and last night Jennifer Garner arrived to watch the speeches, including Obama's surprise appearance. Ben is probably doing a lot of schmoozing, though it sounds like one convention attendee he isn't jumping to call is his ex Jennifer Lopez. Ben was eager, however, to chat about Matt Damon's new baby girl. Affleck said, "I've kind of been texting him back and forth, and he's doing great and [wife] Lucy is doing great. Anybody who has a child is excited, I think, no matter what the gender is. They are thrilled. The thing that people really want, when you get down to it, is a healthy child." While we wouldn't be surprised if Ben would like a son, sounds like a perfectly diplomatic answer for a political event.

Jennifer Lopez All in Red to Honor Children's Defense Fund

Molly — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 05:02:00 -0700

Jennifer Lopez was red from head to toe in her conservative sheath dress in Denver during the DNC last night. She was out for an event at the art museum to honor Marian Wright Edelman, founder of the Children's Defense Fund. As a new mom herself, the topic is probably more even important to her than being in town for the convention. The celebrities have been all over Denver this week, and last night's big speeches did not disappoint, including the surprise appearance on stage by Obama himself. Tonight is the marquee event, and no matter the A-list names in the audience, all eyes will be on Barack as he takes the stage.

Charlize and Eva Show Their DNC Support in Denver

Molly — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 02:03:00 -0700

The Democratic National Convention rolled on last night with another rousing series of speeches, including from Hilary Clinton, and more stars arriving in Denver. Charlize Theron, a new US citizen and voter, was out with Stuart at a screening of their movie Battle in Seattle. Meanwhile, Eva stopped off to check in with the MySpace computer station. Naturally Anderson Cooper was there to cover the event, but what can I say, I'll take any excuse to post him. The same goes for Kal Penn, my recent fair game foe. Of course, these are just a few of the stars expected to make appearances this week - our Citizen girls have even had celeb sightings themselves.

YouTube Video Booth Lets Voters "Geek Out"

GeekSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 11:01:35 -0700

Our very own CitzenSugar and LibertySugar are fresh on the scene at the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver, CO, and what did their eyes spot for this fellow Sugar? A YouTube video station in the Pepsi Center that Google had set up for voters to make their own video about why they are nominating Barack Obama. The vids have already started pouring in and are definitely entertaining. I love how these interactive video booths are popping up everywhere!

Tale of Two Concerts: Taylor, Bennett, and Rock the Vote

CitizenSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 09:00:52 -0700

This couldn't have been a more surreal pairing last night - within the span of 20 minutes we saw James Taylor sing "You've Got a Friend," Tony Bennett sing, "I Left My Heart in San Francisco," and sing a duet together, which was awesome and warranted the held-up cell phone for my mom and then! We headed over to the Rock the Vote concert featuring Fall Out Boy for a whole different scene.

From fancy appetizers and mingling at the James Taylor show (it was an event in honor of Speaker Nancy Pelosi) where Rep. Charlie Rangel was working crowd control with his pretty impressive whistle (Seriously. It stopped people's cocktail chatter dead) to the crazy DJ/laser show/MTV crowd at Rock the Vote, I bet even Buzz's musical sensibilities would have had whiplash.

At Rock the Vote they had you text in why you think it's important to vote, which I did, saying that I wanted John McCain to be my next president (and apparently I got what they thought I deserved as I'm now signed up for some sort of update/alert service. Sigh.) It was awesome and like a crazy dream, and we're still both totally sleep deprived - but hey, if Nancy Pelosi can party like a rock star, well, I'll see if I can keep up.
