Aguilera backs voting campaign
Updated on 14 November 2007
Christina Aguilera has hosted a party in the US to help raise awareness about the importance of voting amongst young people.
The Rock the Vote event was held in West Hollywood and the pregnant singer stressed how important it was for her to support the campaign.
She said: "It's important for me to come out and support such a cause (that) has encouraged so many young people to get out there and register to vote.
"We all have different issues that are important to us; different things that contribute to our daily lives that we should all get out there and encourage to have an opinion on.
"There's power in numbers so it's important to get the word out as much as possible."
Rock the Vote is a non-profit organisation founded in Los Angeles in 1990. Other celebrity supporters in the past include Leonardo Dicaprio, Justin Timberlake, Madonna and P Diddy.
