The blondes appear to be in charge again. We had experienced a minor brunette/raven-haired takeover but now the balance has once again shifted. Hayden Panettiere and Norman Lear (Maude?) co-hosted the “Declare Yourself!” event at the Beverly Hills Post Office last night. Celebs showed up to show their support in an initiative to get 18 year olds to register to vote. And for free whore derves and maybe some champs. You know some of these sluts don’t come out unless there’s free booze and a photo op. I don’t smell philanthropy on any of these fame victims. Except for Norman Lear, but he’s from a different generation. Did Hayden even know who he was? “Who brought their Granpa? Can you stand in front of me so the paps don’t get me drinking from this bottle? Thanks, sweetie.”

Celebrating the rite of passage of turning 18-years-old, guests of all ages registered to vote and shared inspirational stories about the power of participation in democracy. The evening culminated with a live musical performance of Alice Cooper’s classic, “I’m Eighteen,” re-imagined as a rousing anthem by Chester Bennington, lead vocalist of Grammy-winning, multi-platinum rock band Linkin Park, who joined Camp Freddy members Chris Chaney, Dave Navarro, Stephen Perkins of Jane’s Addiction and Billy Morrison of The Cult. Afterward, guests danced the night away as actor/rapper/comedian Nick Cannon spun as special guest DJ.

“Hollywood Celebrates 18″ drew some of today’s most influential celebrities including Kristin Bell, Chester Bennington, Chris Chaney, Sasha Cohen, Nick Cannon, Lauren Conrad, Nick D’Agosto, Julianne Hough, Dave Lieberman, Seth MacFarlane, Heidi Montag, Billy Morrison, Dave Navarro, Adrian Pasdar, Stephen Perkins, Plain White T’s, Zachary Quinto, Romeo, Justin Timberlake and Rumer Willis.

Norman Lear (MAUDE!) is the founder of “Declare Yourself” by the way. Half of these freaks wouldn’t know a voting booth if they saw one. People were probably too busy debating whether Rumer Willis’ new hair color was distracting from the Frankenstein.
