Celebrities Out Everywhere For Obama

WASHINGTON — Hollywood unbuttoned Washington's collar at President Barack Obama's inauguration events on Tuesday, bringing a touch of levity and star power to a historic day. Beyonce crooned a classic to the new president, Wyclef Jean got a black-tie crowd to wave their tuxedo jackets in the air and Sheryl Crow sang her famous song celebrating change. Crow said at the Midwestern Ball that she couldn't remember the last time she played a gig in a dress and heels. "I'm doing it for the new president. Just my way of serving my country," she said. Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez shook off rumors of trouble in their relationship with a public display of affection at the Western Ball. For his last number, Anthony thrilled the crowd by inviting his wife to sing with him _ and got a kiss from her on the lips. Beyonce sang Etta James' "At Last" at the first ball of the night as part of a star-studded lineup that aired on ABC with Jay-Z, will.i.am, Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, Shakira, Sting, Faith Hill, Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder and Maroon 5. At the Mid-Atlantic Ball, Jean got many of the 7,000 guests to swing their tux jackets in the air to show their support for Obama as part of a raucous 30-minute set. The crowd also grouped later to music from "The Dead" _ the band including members who used to perform with "The Grateful Dead." Jon Bon Jovi performed at the Commander in Chief Ball for the military, playing an acoustic version of "Who Says You Can't Go Home?" But it was the Obamas, following Kid Rock and Kanye West, who got the real rock-star reception at the Youth Inaugural Ball. They entered a hotel ballroom to deafening cheers from the mostly 20-something crowd. Earlier in the day, plenty of the stars showed up for the swearing-in. Jay-Z was there with wife Beyonce. Smokey Robinson, Diddy and Denzel Washington made it, too. Bruce Springsteen was there with his wife, not far from Christopher Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis. Boxing great Muhammad Ali had a s
