They’re calling it the biggest social movement since the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s and everywhere you look there is a new celebrity supporting its cause. We’re talking about the Occupy Wall Street Protests. The movement started on Wall Street in New York City and has since grown to Washington, D.C., Oakland, Ca. as well as pockets of Europe. Let’s make a toast to the millionaire celebrities who haven’t forgotten where they come from and have thrown their support behind fairness and economic justice

There are hundreds of other celebrities like, Usher, Alec Baldwin, Brad Pitt, and Lady Gaga who have shown thier support of the OWS protesters on Twitter and various other social media outlets. Here's a TOAST to hoping this movement doesn't die! "We the people."
