While the NRA takes aim at Hollywood for promoting violence, more than two-dozen A-list celebs fired back today with a new YouTube video demanding a plan to reign in gun crime.
Actors and musicians from Beyonce to John Hamm and Jennifer Anniston star in the 80-second black and white clip titled “Demand A Plan,” that is sure to go viral.
Stars list the scenes of some of the worst shootings in US history including at Colorado’s Columbine High School in Colorado, the cinema shooting in Aurora CO and finishing at Newtown.
The celebs say Americans need to come together “as a mum,” “as a dad, “as human beings” to stop gun violence.
The Demand a Plan campaign is run by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, co-chaired by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Bloomberg has vowed to use his considerable wealth and star pulling power to change gun laws.
Other celebs featured include Jamie Foxx, Paul Rudd, Michelle Williams, Amy Poehler, Julianne Moore, Chris Rock, Reese Witherspoon, Kate Hudson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Will Ferrell and Steve Carell.
