Baracking Out

Filed under: Ben Affleck > Pharrell > Politik > Kanye West > Barack Obama > Scarlett Johansson > Heidi Montag > John McCain > Ed Norton

It's been revealed that Kanye West, N.E.R.D. and Wyclef Jean will be performing at the Democratic National Convention in Denver next month.

Cool line-up!

And, more importantly, no Barbra Streisand!! THANK GOD!

Wonder if Kanye plans to do an elaborate set?

Hollywood Dems who plan to attend include Ben Affleck, Barack's 'pen pal' Scarlett Johansson, Madonna's ex Warren Beatty, Annette Bening, Oscar winner Forrest Whitaker, Maggie Gyllenhaal, funny lady Cheryl Hines and Ed Norton, who's been shooting a documentary about Obama's race to the White House.

Dem shindigs are always star-studded.

How can the Republicans compete?

Maybe they'll ask Heidi Montag to do a song or two for gramps McCain?!

    Who honestly would vote for someone because of a celebretard endorsement? Who has benefitted from capitalism MORE than those stupid celebrities? And people like YOU who sell ads on their sites? DO you really think this inexperienced, raise your taxes and flipfloppy man is suited to lead this country? Do you really think Iraq was better under Saddam Hussein? Do you really think that Ben Affleck should influence your vote? Good god.

    Well, you know since the celebs vote for dems maybe I should to. What kinda of stupid world takes the advice of celebs and who they vote for. What do they know…nothing. Celebs are stupid people who are obsessed with themselves. Wow there voting dem maybe everyone else so vote republican. I don't give a shit which celebs vote for who and why does that even matter! I mean Barack doesn't even know how to be a president just because he was in the senate for 190 days makes him capable…yeah right! Celebs are more concerned with the image of the president and not the issues!

    Perez you are a fucking idiot . The amount of celebrities attending each convention has nothing to do with which candidate is better fit to run this country. If anything it makes the democrats look even more ridiculous turning their party into a circus act

    114

    Wow Perez you have finally convinced me. If Scarlett Johanssen, best known for her tits and monotone voice, is voting for Obama then I should too!

    Thank God for your website otherwise I would be totally lost come November.

    117

    I wouldnt bank on Kanye anyways… If he shows up at all he will probably be atleast 2 hours late. Plus i dont know why he has anything to do with the election since he knows that "the government administered aids." Definately… a college dropout! [if not a high school drop out!]

    Didn't Kanye become famous with is his first CD that all about his life story and the name of the CD was "College Dropout" . Ah…. let's follow the lead of Hollywood because they have their priorities right, please I wouldn't follow one of these celebretards if I was dying of thirst and the could lead me to water. Perez I really think you've become what you satire, if you actually believe that watching ego maniacal Kanye West and the other two rappers on stage performing is going to get Obama more votes besides the 95% black and the bunch of loser college kids that he already has voting for him then you seriously need to leave L.A fast, dude your becoming your own joke.

    Re: ANN – Reading these comments has given me hope for the youth of America once again. Barry is going to lose in a landslide. Congrats you Dems…you put up the ONLY person that could have lost to John McCain in 2008. It's absolutely incredible.

    I'm Canadian and I can't figure out how American's haven't realized that since democrats took control of the government everything has gone to shit except Iraq and that's only because the President is still the Commander in Chief and the dems would have really had to go out on a limb to override him on Iraq and not fund the war and since they thought they could use the Iraq war in 08 election to get more power and the Presidency they just bitched and complained about everything the President proposed to change from loosing Iraq to Iran and Al Qaeda to stabilizing it, but they now look like a bunch of defeatist who gave up and wanted to retreat and lose, nothing new. Even funnier today the NY Daily News reported Obama took off his web-site all the negative quotes he had on the surge, "surge will not work",and "that more American troops would only escalate the violence" and my favorite that "McCain and Bush don't understand the conflict" like his sultan Obama does.

    And to all of you complaining about the gas prices, one of the reasons gas prices are this high is because the oil analysts and hedge funds who invest in the oil futures know that democrats wouldn't do anything to lower the price of gas, this is democrats wet dream to have gas at a price that people are forced to conserve and find alternative means of transportation, they have wanted a higher gas tax for years but knew the public wouldn't accept it, look at Europe their paying in some places 8 to 9 dollars a gallon and the difference is all taxes and Europe is what democrats think their going to change America into in these next 4 years. Even in Canada we won't shoot are selves in the face to spite our noses, we drill off the shores in Newfoundland and Labrador, suck out as much sand oil from Alberta as is humanely possible and you guys won't drill off your shores or 1/10 of an insect filled landed in the middle of nowhere, you people are so worried about falling behind China, you think China would sit on that much oil because it might harm the environment. Every other country in the world would drill any where and every where they could find a speck of oil.

    Re: rose

    Rose you are so sensible and it makes me sick that we cannot drill on our own turf while 3 different countries are now drilling off the coast of Cuba, which is in our own backyard.

    So, let me get this straight, - better entertainers and entertainment equates to a better President? Typical statement from someone who makes a living out of wasting their vote.

    Bring all of the hollywood liberals to Denver. Then the Guiness Book of World Records and can record the DNC convention as the largest gathering of moonbat liberal idiots. From B. Hussein Obama to Ben "duh" Affleck.
