These Celebs Hit the DNC to Support Their Significant Others — Even Though They Can't Vote

Happy couples are supportive of each other’s interests and endeavors, right? If so, then these three Hollywood pairs proved at the Democratic National Convention that their relationships are rock-solid.

Orlando Bloom, Irina Shayk, and Brooklyn Beckham all traveled to the DNC in Philly to support their respective significant others who are stumping for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. What’s even more impressive is they won’t be able to vote on Election Day since they aren’t U.S. citizens and, in one case, won’t be old enough to vote on Nov. 8.


British actor Bloom cheered on girlfriend Katy Perry, who performed her new song “Rise” on the final night of the convention, proudly filming her with his iPhone while she was on stage. Turns out Bloom, 39, even helped her write her speech, as she noted on Twitter when HelloGiggles co-founder Sophia Rivka Rossi quoted Perry’s line, “It’s not where you come from, but what you grow in to” and Perry, 31, replied that “Lando put that one in.” (Btw, Orli is so last year. Get on the Lando train.)

Russian model Irina Shayk, 30, stayed by Bradley Cooper‘s side in the Wells Fargo Center and, as usual, their appearance made news. Unlike the last time they made headlines, here the buzz was all about Cooper, 41, who had Republicans up in arms. Though fans of his onscreen performance in American Sniper, some conservatives were disappointed to see him supporting Clinton at the DNC and took to Twitter to voice their displeasure. No doubt Shayk’s presence helped ease any concern (read: not any!) that Cooper may have had about the uproar.

Caught on C-Span.

British-born Brooklyn Beckham has been living in the U.S. for years with his famous parents, David and Victoria, and even has the American accent to prove it, but he won’t be 18 come Election Day. The 17-year-old, whose birthday is in March, did surprise his 19-year-old girlfriend Chloë Grace Moretz at the DNC before she spoke in front of the packed hall. And she was clearly thankful as she Instagrammed a snap of the too-cool-for-school teen couple sitting in the audience with the caption, “Look who surprised me!!! We are Ready to watch @hillaryclinton make history…”

Look who surprised me !!! We are Ready to watch @hillaryclinton make history.. (Tune in at 9:18 for my speech xox)

Let’s hope all this support is reciprocated.
