DEMS HAVE STAR POWER APLENTY

A star-studded Hollywood cast plans to back Barack Obama at this month’s Democratic convention in Denver.

Madonna, George Clooney, Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow are expected to be among the celebs playing supporting roles when the convention begins two weeks from tomorrow.

Others include Scarlett Johansson, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Forrest Whitaker, Susan Sarandon, Warren Beatty, Kanye West and Wyclef Jean.

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones may also show.

“There will be more celebrities in Denver than there were when the Democratic convention was in Los Angeles eight years ago,” a party official told London’s Sunday Telegraph.

And Stevie Wonder, Sheryl Crow, Melissa Etheridge and the Black Eyed Peas are slated to perform.
