‘Don’t Vote’
Why would you vote?
A whole slew of celebs have gotten together to appear in a PSA produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, will.i.am, Tobey Maguire and Forest Whitaker in an effort to encourage the American youth to register to vote by telling them not to vote. The vid is a lengthy 4 minutes long but is deffo worth watching in full:
An effective strategy? Or, a plea destined to fall on deaf ears? You decide.

I LOVE THIS… I have sent it to pretty much all of my friends :-) REGISTER PEOPLE!!!
It’s cool that they care enough to spend the time making this video, and bits of it were hilarious (mainly Ellen) but… patronising much? But maybe that’s just me that thinks that.
and courtney cox saying she used to have 5 friends… hehe!
Yea, the Courtney Cox line is the best. That and Sarah Silverman. I love the whole thing. I wish it was constantly playing in the public’s ears.
I think this great. I love how so many celebrities have gotten together for this important public announcement. It is very important to vote especially in this particular election where our future matters more than it ever has before. VOTE on November 4th!
I. LOVE. SARAH SILVERMAN.
Preach! I totally agree, this PSA is great :)
lol, this is so adorable. Way better than that jessica alba creeptastic video from yesterday.
I love it when this works, and then the people who get inspired to vote, vote Republican. In your face, liberal Hollywood!
i am not american. if we had celebs in france caring that much about people voting, the turnout will be better… :)
this campaign is good. ellen is good in it.
much better and more educative than alba’s ad.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS
i think its a really good video,(all the way from the uk) however i think they should have shorter versions of them just going “don’t vote” as a teaser to then see the full clip (sort of like subliminal messaging between ads) would probably appeal to a greater mass of people aswell. :-)
that was good, it should have been blasted all over the place considering it’s way too close to the deadline to register.
I love the “who cares about the economy? I have a ton of money, don’t give a shit” and “the war on drugs? I’ve never fought a war about drugs.I’ve never done shit on drugs besides play Halo 2″ that alone made me want to go vote RIGHT NOW!
where did this come from? because this should be on the front page of youtube when you go to it.
i love sarah silverman. she’s why i sent it to my peeps! it’s going to spread…like herpes…but the good kind!
20 bazillion time better than that creepy Jessica Alba stuff…
HAHAHAHA! Man, this was great! I laughed through a bit of it and I plan on showing my husband who is 30 and has never voted for anything in his life! I’m passing it along on all the social sites I’m a part of! *grin*
Ahhhhh, I love it! Please register, please vote….if not for yourself then do it for my sons! :)
it’s too bad i’m from vancouver canada….i would TOTALLY VOTE! hahaha. so please, fellow american cousins, please do your part and vote….but register first LOL.
awesome vid clip…good job ….
THIS is the way to go. The Jessica Alba clip yesterday was catering to a really young audience. I don’t see how it would work for people old enough to vote. This was totally appropriate!
And Sally – we in Canada have a vote as well and you can vote today in the pre-election.
how about a plea falling on deaf ears? the majority of those actors are washed up anyway.
and i agree with julie, defy the liberal hollywood!
