Scarlett's On Team Obama

scar-jo.jpg

Scalett Johansson has been campaigning for Barack Obama in Iowa.

The Obama campaign avoided publicizing her appearance or involving her in the official program, but ScarJo spoke at a small gathering to rally young voters.

Update: PerezHilton.com reader Alex was lucky enough to meet Miz Johansson.

This is what he has to share:

"OMG! I met her and she was sooo cute and nice. She signed an autograph and took pictures. She was nervous and sweet but fun and honest. I loved it. There were only about 6o people in the room. It was surprisingly intimate, which was really nice. She joked, luaghed and was just an all around normal, cordial and intelligent person. I really respect her now not only as an actress but as a person for putting her celebrity behind Obama's campaign. Screw Oprah (blaspheme, i know!) Scarlett got my vote for Obama!"

      He was wise to not expose her. Oprah brings credibility, but people like Scarlett…. well, I'm not fan of hers. At least not enough to care about her politics. Most importantly, avoid getting endorsed by Streisand, Cruise, Spears, Lohan, Alec Baldwin, Sean Penn, Travolta, Pat Robertson, George W. Bush. I think that's it.

      I wouldn't exactly say she rallied young voters. She spoke mainly to faculty and staff at my school, Cornell College, in Mount Vernon. It was in a really small room and there were only like 20 people there.

      Celebs should stick to whatever it is they do to be celebs and keep their noses OUT of politics. The worst thing we can do as a country right now is to elect the wrong person because some loud mouth celeb put their seal of approval on him or her. People - read what each candidate believes in , stands for, and backs - and see how that measures up to your own beliefs, THEN make an informed vote. Don't let a celebrity tell you what to do. (and this isn't against Obama - he just happens to be the person mentioned in this clip).

      I am truly dissapointed in everyone who wants Barak Obama to be president.
      What frightens me is that people fail to realize what his middle name is!! Hussein! If you ask me, once a muslim, always a muslim. Despite what he says about proclaiming to be a "christian" non-stop. Why do you think he stresses that point so much? We could do better. Much better. You people need to wake up and get off your asses before another 911 hits us straight in the face.

      lets hope that bloody obama does not win, or the witch. dennis kucinich looks like he's a good guy and not a totally corrupt cum-guzzler like the other candidates. Hes a liberal too and is not a wishywasher on the subject of gay marriage like obama and that other witch who was married to captain blowjob once. As for obama bin laden. as soon as you get celebs to represent your cause like oprah and scar-ho then youre heading for a gigantic clusterfuck of a result since they are not well liked. everyone hates oprah and scar-ho-whatever-the-hell-her-name-is.
      celebrities have no place in politics so using them in your campaign will just piss people off. obama and the witch should get britney to champion them. she'd probably strip at the rally and show her punani to the supporters. thats a surefire way to commit political suicide

      Re: lookie – Ok Let's talk. Let's talk about how Democrats are for "wage peace. No war." Let's talk about the fact that Democrats are all for supporting the troops when all they want is to is pull out of Iraq and move on. You can't have it both ways. NEWS FLASH. The troops are actually doing well in Iraq. But do you hear about it? no. Because all the media is doing is covering the fucking Iowa caucuses which are, by the way, without a doubt unconstitutional and undemocratic. Oh and by the way, I would rather shoot mysewlf in the foot than waste my time reading about the life of Barack Obama. That is one story I think I can live without.

      Yes, that is right…youth of america, base your votes for presidents on celebritys and if they were nice or not. Sure you think you identify with them, but really isn't it age and little bit of a talent/looks/priviledge crush? No worries that the President could crush your ability to get a job by the time you graduate college, ruin your chance for a fair wage, tax you at a higher rate, provide less services for you or even *gasp* make you pay more of your loans back more quickly….Lets hear it for celebritys!
