Actor activism for Gore. Barbra Streisand is not the only left-wing celebrity using her stardom to aide the Al Gore campaign and the Rosie O’Donnell Show wasn’t the only program Monday to showcase a celebrity promoting Gore. Last night on NBC’s Tonight Show, X Files star Gillian Anderson shouted "Gore! Gore!"

In addition, several actors traveled over the weekend and last night with the Gore entourage to warm up crowds and help get out the vote efforts.

Anderson, who plays FBI agent "Dana Sculley" on Fox’s The X Files, wrapped up her election eve Tonight Show appearance by urging viewers to vote for Al Gore. Her voice rising to a shout, she hinted at dire consequences if Bush wins and exhorted: "Woman have to get out there. For woman, for children, for seniors. Get out there. You have no idea. It’s going to be bad. Gore! Gore!" Only the band’s pre-commercial break music cut her off.

In a World News Tonight story on turnout efforts, ABC’s Aaron Brown on Monday night reported: "Actor Jeff Goldblum was working for Al Gore in Pittsburgh, TV President Martin Sheen and Rob Reiner were working Memphis."

Entertainment Tonight’s Mary Hart showed actors Julia Louis Dreyfuss, Ben Affleck, Helen Hunt and Martin Sheen campaigning for Gore in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania over the weekend. ET played a clip of Dreyfuss, best-known as "Elaine" on Seinfeld, shouting: "Vote for Al Gore Tuesday!" Affleck took a nice shot at Bush: "It’s hard for me to have a respect for a guy who never held a job until he was 40." Shortly before 1am ET this morning, C-SPAN showed live coverage of Affleck, Robert DeNiro and Glenn Close bashing Bush as they warmed up a Miami Beach crowd just before Gore arrived.
