Ryan Reynolds and Barbra Streisand are among stars trying to unseat disgraced Colorado GOP rep. Lauren Boebert by donating to her Democrat rival’s campaign.
The A-Listers have been joined by Eagles Founder Don Henley, actor and director Rob Reiner, as well as Johnny Cash’s daughter Rosanne Cash in donating to Adam Frisch’s 2023 campaign.
Data shows Reynolds has donated $1,500 to Frisch’s campaign, Henley has donated $6,600, Streisand has donated $1,000, Reiner has donated $3,300 and Cash has donated $550.
In a delicious irony, Boebert – who became a grandma earlier this year aged just 36 – faces losing her seat months after her seedy behavior during a performance of Beetlejuice at Denver ‘s Buell Theater in September.
Surveillance footage captured the staunch family-values conservative rubbing Democrat date Quinn Gallagher’s crotch as he fondled her breasts.
Boebert was also filmed snapping selfies using a flash during the show and vaping, to the consternation of her fellow theater-goers.
On being ejected from the show, Boebert was even seen giving the finger to a member of theater staff and barked ‘Do you know who I am?’ at them.
It’s unclear if the Hollywood attempt to unseat her is because of her repeated theater faux pas, although the stars who’ve come out against her are also prominent liberals.

Last week, Boebert took to Twitter to try and use Frisch’s celebrity support to increase her campaign donations.
‘My opponent has plenty of funding from Soros dark money and even Hollywood liberals like Barbra Streisand and Ryan Reynolds,’ she said.
‘I need your help. Can I count on your support today for the critical November end-of-month deadline?’
Frisch has raised $7,769,641.43 between January 1 and September 30 in 2023, Boebert has raised $2,435,743.58 in the same period, according to the Federal Election Commission.
Boebert initially lied about her behavior by issuing a sarcastic statement denying her sordid antics.
But she changed her tune when surveillance footage revealed the unseemly truth and later apologized, claiming her behavior was down to the anxiety of her recent divorce.
‘The past few days have been difficult and humbling, and I’m truly sorry’ she wrote in a statement.
‘There’s no perfect blueprint for going through a public and difficult divorce, which over the past few months has made a challenging personal time for me and my entire family.’
Boebert narrowly defeat Frisch in the 2022 midterm race, winning by just 564 votes, but he is determined to oust her in 2024.
‘She didn’t even win her home county’ Frisch said to DailyMail.com. ‘Only a small handful of members of Congress lose their home county.’

‘I’m not going to spend my time on some Oversight Committee yelling and screaming at tech executives about why don’t have more Twitter followers,’ he said, referencing Boebert and the Oversight Committee’s Big Tech censorship revenge tour.
Frisch criticized his opponent as ‘not focused on the job but focused on herself.’
‘There’s an agriculture bill every six years and she doesn’t want to work on that. She doesn’t want to be on the Agriculture Committee, she wants to be on the Oversight Committee.’
‘All you see of her is, you know, the ghosts and goblins committee.’
‘The amount of heads that shake kind of despondently at the Chamber of Commerce’s and more right-leaning communities because they know it. They know that she’s an embarrassment,’ the Democratic candidate said.
