Jessica Alba & Hayden Panettiere Team Up For Spoof Video 10/3/08
Jessica Alba has teamed up with Heroes star Hayden Panettiere for a
spoof video urging young people in the U.S. to vote at the upcoming
presidential election.
Alba has been a longtime supporter of the Declare Yourself campaign, and
has made two controversial adverts for the organization in a bid to
encourage Americans to take to the polls in November (08). The latest ad
featured Alba wearing a Hannibal Lecter-style muzzle.
And now the Hollywood actress has enlisted the help of 19-year-old
Panettiere for a satirical clip which has been posted on video sharing
website YouTube.
The two stars are seen hosting a mock home-shopping show selling The
Muzzler 2008, a similar device to that worn by Alba in the last
campaign. Panettiere is seen modeling a pink version, spelling out to
youngsters the need not to let their political voices be silenced.
Marc Morgenstern, executive director of Declare Yourself, tells
People.com, "Jessica and Hayden have an amazing ability to connect with
young adults. Behind all the humor of the PSA lies a very serious
message of what it actually means to sit out the election and
effectively silence oneself."
