5 Friends

There's a new viral video making its way around the web. It's a celebrity filled PSA urging people to register to vote. The video itself is a bit lengthy which may limit its appeal as a viral video but the uncensored version offers a few laughs.

Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Aniston, Jamie Foxx, Usher, Halle Berry, Forest Whitaker, Sarah Silverman, Dustin Hoffman and Jonah Hill are just a few of the celebrities who are urging Americans to get out there and vote in a new public-service video entitled "5 Friends."

The spot does not single out a candidate but features the stars urging people repeatedly to register and vote (and encourage five friends or more to do the same). In some states, the voter-registration deadline is October 4, while other states allow people to register at the polls. [mtvU]

There's a few pretty cool maps if you putz around on the URL the video gives.
