LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
If you ask Jessica Alba, not voting is even scarier than Hannibal Lecter. The star of “The Eye” — who knows a thing or two about horror movies — put on a “Silence of the Lambs”-like mask in her second shocking ad for Declare Yourself, a campaign to drive young people to register to vote.
Her first ad was also bondage-themed, featuring the star wrapped and gagged with thick black tape.
“Only You Can Silence Yourself,” the ads’ taglines read.
People can register and vote directly through DeclareYourself.com.
Alba, who was spotted at the Democratic National Convention, is the latest celeb to get out the vote for Declare Yourself. On Wednesday, stars including Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen DeGeneres, Courteney Cox, Jonah Hill, Natalie Portman, Halle Berry and Jamie Foxx appeared in a clever reverse-psychology viral video for the site that told people, “Don’t vote.”
Undecided voters will have another chance to make up their minds tonight as vice-presidential candidates Sarah Palin and Joe Biden face off in their only national debate.
