She Really Wants Hillary To Be President

by Samantha Matthews

Liv Tyler poses for July's issue of Violet Grey looking absolutely beautiful with minimal makeup and loose waves — but it's her awesome shirt that really matters. She looks very all-American in a pair of blue jeans and a white tee that reads "Hillary for President." The extended interview in the magazine starts out, "By year’s end, America may have a female presidential candidate in Hillary Clinton, and actress Liv Tyler is an unabashed supporter of this kind of progress." The photo shoot is a bold move that's surprising for Tyler since she typically keeps her political views under wraps. According to Us Weekly, Tyler told the New York Daily News in July 2011 that "half my family is Republican, half is Democrat," but she didn't disclose where she herself landed on the political spectrum. Finally, the burning question has been answered.

Although it is still only rumored that Clinton will be a presidential candidate in the 2016 election, at least she can be confident she has the unabashed support of one very outspoken elf — and Tyler's not the only one. Clinton is clearly a celeb fan favorite, with everyone from George Clooney to Julia Roberts singing her praises recently. Although these seven famous faces may not wear their opinion on their tees, they are pretty vocal about who they want the next president to be. Check out all the reasons they support Clinton 2016.
