Jessica Alba is encouraging voter participation by becoming the face of a new bondage-inspired campaign for the voter group Declare Yourself. According to People magazine

[Alba says] the dramatic image “really resonates” with the issue of voting. “If you don’t register and vote and make a difference, and hopefully change the bad things that are happening in our country, you are essentially just binding and muzzling yourself.”

Of taking the photos, shot by photographer Marc Liddel, Alba says, “It didn’t freak me out at all. What I like about Marc’s work is that he tells a story and brings real emotion to his pictures.”

Okay, I get it. Not voting “muzzles and binds” you. Right. But you know what would be even better? Casting off the metaphorical shackles of the current administration by taking off her bra. And then greasing herself up with the metaphorical oil of change and masturbating with the metaphorical dildo of voter turnout. Our generation wants to be inspired!
