Celebrities Visiting Washington DC

Celebrities have swarmed to Washington DC to be a part of the inauguration proceedings. Some are performing in the festivities, while others are simply trying to get some face time with the new President of the United States. No wonder hotels were sold-out, and accommodations were so sparse in DC. Hundreds and hundreds of celebrities and politicians needed lodging, as well as the thousands of civilian spectators. Some hotels' rates were in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for the course of the festivities, and as mentioned before residents were renting out their own homes for a hefty profit.

Obama continues to attract media coverage, and celebrity admirers like no other president has. His historical inauguration as the 44th President of the United States of America has drawn a long list of celebrity attendees to Washington DC. The long list includes: George Lucas; Spike Lee; Jessica Alba; Bono; Oprah Winfrey; Sting; Kate Walsh; Will Smith; Tim Robbins; Elvis Costello; Ashton Kutcher; Jennifer Aniston and many, many more.
