Will.i.am has posted another star-studded video to show his support for Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama. This time the Black Eyed Pea has recruited Jessica Alba, Ryan Phillippe, George Lopez, Kerry Washington, Malcolm-Jamal Warner from The Cosby Show and more celebs to contribute uplifting spoken word passages to “We Are the Ones.” “I would like to see a cleaner Earth for my child that I’m bringing into the world very soon,” says Alba over a backbeat of “O-Bam-A, O-Bam-A.” This is the second time Will.i.am has drafted celebrities to help stump for Obama: The “Yes We Can” video, using samples from Obama’s speeches, featured Scarlett Johansson, John Legend and Common.
