Whether it's "Team Heidi" or "Real Girls Eat Meat," you know celebrities care deeply about something when they put it on a T-shirt.

That's why we couldn't ignore the fact that many Tinseltown types seem to be wearing gear in support of Sen. Barack Obama's quest for the presidency. Who knew?

The pendulum always swings both ways, however. So we will await the inevitable crush of McCain '08 hats, hoodies, and decorative neck tattoos sure to turn up soon.

Until they do, though, check out our Team Obama gallery and see who supports him.

Jennifer Connelly was definitely born with it, so it isn't Maybelline.

The 37-year-old Oscar winner has been named a brand ambassador for Revlon, a role usually reserved for the kindhearted as well as the pretty-faced.

In addition to appearing in a global marketing campaign, Connelly will also represent the 76-year-old cosmetics company in its various fundraising efforts, which include the annual Revlon Run/Walk for Women, a frequently celeb-studded event held in Los Angeles and New York which benefits breast cancer research and awareness.

"Revlon is one of the great iconic brands of today and I am thrilled to be part of a company that has done so much for women around the world," Connelly said in a statement.

Added company president and CEO David Kennedy: "[Connelly] is an accomplished wife, mother and actress and her successes complement the spirit of the Revlon brand."

The bevy of lovelies who have provided a famous foundation for Revlon's products includes Halle Berry, Jessica Alba, Lucy Liu, Eva Mendes and Claudia Schiffer.

Calvin Klein

First a PETA ad, then a toe-sucking, lingerie-wearing Italian Vogue spread, and now her Calvin Klein ads. Lately, Eva Mendes seems to star in more naked picture campaigns than movies.

The 2 Fast 2 Furious star finally makes her debut as the face for Calvin Klein’s Seductive Comfort underwear, a move CK president and CEO Tom Murry says is “a departure from more slender body types that have typically been used in Calvin Klein Underwear ads...This product is made for a curvaceous woman.”

Well, we don't know about you guys, but Eva's looking pretty slender to us...What do you think?

Making mischief all over France is going to require some fierce reinforcements.

Project Runway winner Christian Siriano is set to design a collection that will be showcased in the upcoming kid romp Eloise in Paris, starring newcomer Jordana Beatty as the Plaza-bred youngster and Uma Thurman as her ever-proper Nanny.

While the bespectacled 22-year-old has already been cutting his Hollywood teeth on mannequins, er, muses like Victoria Beckham, he seems plenty psyched for his couture's big-screen cameo.

Seriously, Maggie? A silky, slouchy jumpsuit to the London premiere of the movie with not only the highest opening-weekend gross ever, but also the current No. 1 film of all time on IMDb? Somebody said this was OK?

Well, we’re not mad, Mags. We're disappointed. You see, there are some of us here that have always stuck up for you. Even when a bad magazine cover comes along or a slightly off (OK, often really off) choice of dress pops up at some Indie event, we’ve had your back.

And you really came through for us at New York’s The Dark Knight premiere with that elegant, strapless floral gown. But this jumpsuit is unforgivable. We’re not even going to bother telling the IMDb haters to quit making fun of you.

At least it's not all bleak, though—your hair looks nice.

Given all the sweat and the I'll-take-the-dressing-on-the-side salads that go into turning out a perfectly proportioned leg in this town, it's no wonder that some stars like to hike their hemlines just a little shorter.

Who (besides movie critics) says Lindsay Lohan doesn't have a leg to stand on these days?!

It's already waiting-list-only for slim-stemmed fashionistas looking to get their hands on a pair of the starlet's signature leggings, which after debuting in-store and on an L.A. boutique's website exactly one week ago have already sold out.

"The collection is blowing out, we were so overwhelmed by the reaction," Jaye Hersh, owner of Intuition on Pico Boulevard, told E! News Friday. "We have launched other celebrity collections here, and this one is just flying through the door."

It’s been ages since we’ve seen our girl Linds all decked out for a night on the town. Good job, SamRo, getting her out to watch you deejay Sephora's 10th Anniversary party in NYC.

Only Samantha doesn’t appear to share our happiness. Oh dear, does she not care for LiLo's return-to-the-nightlife outfit?

Gotta say, Lindsay's rainbow connection was better the first time. And then there’s the hat. It’s cool if Samantha insists on wearing one all the time—but we expect beautiful movie-star hair from Linds.

How about running a brush through it—what would your mother say? Oh, she was actually there with you and seems to approve. This really is like old times.
