Reba Promotes the Vote for Lifetime TV

1/18/2008 Stephen L. Betts Reba McEntire rarely talks politics publicly, but that doesn't mean she has no interest in the issues. The singer has joined a long list of female celebrities — including Queen Latifah, Halle Berry, Jodie Foster, Mary Hart and Patti LaBelle — taking part in the Lifetime TV Networks’ “Every Woman Counts” campaign. The effort doesn't pick sides among the candidates, but instead features a series of public service announcements and commercials in which women are encouraged to think about issues important to them, and to act upon their beliefs by voting or becoming politically active. Mary J. Blige, Fran Drescher, Daisy Fuentes, Ricki Lake, Alyssa Milano and Molly Shannon are among the many other celebrities who’ve joined the campaign, which begins this month and runs through the November election.
