SciFi Red Carpet: Edward James Olmos is in D.C for the Inauguration

by

The whole country is talking about Barack Obama’s Presidential Inauguration this week, and actor Edward James Olmos is among the lucky few hundred thousand who get to attend the inauguration events in Washington, D.C.

On Saturday the actor attended a star-studded concert featuring Carole King & Bebe Winans, and last night he attended the 2009 Latina Inaugural Gala “Celebrando El Cambio.” Based on the photo above from last evening, he enjoyed at least one spirited conversation with Marc Antony and Jennifer Lopez.

The Latino ball was a star-studded affair designed to call attention to the increasing power of the Latino vote in presidential politics. Other celebrities in attendance included pop star Shakira, actress Rosario Dawson, comedian George Lopez, and many others.

Edward James Olmos will be back in California by Wednesday, when he is scheduled to speak at a Boys and Girls Club. The actor regularly makes appearances at youth and educational functions to promote a positive attitude amongst Latino children and educators.
