Sharon Stone, Halle Berry and Jamie Foxx are among a list of politically-minded stars who've donated thousands of dollars to fund U.S. President-elect Barack Obama's upcoming inauguration into the White House.
Obama secured a long line of A-list supporters during his run for office, and is set to be sworn in during a history-making ceremony in Washington, D.C. on January 20.
But the event, which will feature several black-tie balls and could draw up to five million people, will require a hefty bankroll - and the star supporters have already coughed up mounds of cash.
Stone, Berry and Foxx have donated $50,000 each to the celebration, reports the New York Post.
The donation has secured the trio four tickets to the event.
The parade and swearing-in ceremonies are paid for by the government; incoming presidents traditionally rely on private funds to supplement the budget and host parties.
