While they may be Democrat or Republican, some celebrities don’t want to tell you who to elect as the next president, but they do want you to exercise your right to vote.
Leonardo DiCaprio and a few of his famous friends recently gathered to make a public service announcement urging viewers to make sure they’re registered to vote before election day. Sources exclusively tell OK! that the star-studded PSA was filmed at Leo’s L.A. home.
"I mean you do know that, right? You have to register first before you vote," says Leo in the almost-five minute spot.
Over three days the Body of Lies actor and his production company, Appian Way, put celebs like Tobey Maguire, Forest Whitaker, will.i.am, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Courteney Cox, Ellen DeGeneres, Jaime Foxx, Jonah Hill, Dustin Hoffman, Natalie Portman and more in front of the camera to get the message out to unregistered voters, asking them to also tell five friends to do the same.
The spot urges viewers to go online at that very moment to register, many saying they’ll wait while you do so.
"I’ll wait too," adds Sarah Silverman. "I’m going to take off my bra under my shirt."

Maria Bello: Engaged!
July 28th, 2008
Maria Bello, star of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, is engaged to marry her boyfriend Bryn Mooser, her rep has confirmed.
Bello,41, is the latest Hollywood actress to settle down with a younger man. Mooser, a writer, is just 28. Bello’s hometown newspaper, The Norristown Times Herald, in Norristown, Penn., was quoted as saying the two "fell in love over a sheer passion of politics, Africa and cryptozoology."
The actress recently told the New York Post’s Page Six Magazine that she "was always anti-marriage. I didn’t understand monogamy. I couldn’t figure out how that could last. And then I met Bryn and I started to understand the beauty of constancy and history and change and going on the roller coaster with someone–of having a partner in life."
Bello and Mooser have not set a date yet.
