The Stars Come Out in Washington
Barack Obama has made it to the capital -- and the star-studded celebrations in his honor are making D.C. the Hollywood of the east!
After attending church services in Washington on Sunday, Barack and his group will head to the We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration at the Lincoln Memorial -- a concert to kick off the start of the inaugural bashes, fashion and glamour in D.C.!
Bruce Springsteen, U2, Beyoncé, and Josh Groban are set to take the stage at the historical celebration.
Rumor has it the future Commander-in-Chief will welcome a crowd that's expected to be as large as a half-million people! "This is a great opportunity to capture a historic event in a very meaningful setting," Don Mischer, producer and director of "We Are One," tells the Baltimore Sun. "We will have the statue of Abraham Lincoln looking down on our stage and a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people lining the mall -- a tableau any director would relish."
