Katy Perry got ‘naked’ in a comedy video to get Americans to vote

That's one way to get people interested in their democratic rights.

Katy Perry REALLY wants US citizens to vote.

The singer, who is a noted Democrat and Hillary Clinton supporter is the latest celebrity to make their voice heard ahead of National Voter Registration Day in America.

But where Joss Whedon and his friends merely teased that they’d get their kit off if people voted….

Ms Perry went along and did it outright.

In a new video with the folk over at Funny or Die, Katy Perry got naked so people would be reminded to vote.

2016 continues to be a curious and strange year.

“November 8th is Election Day and I’ve got some great news,” Perry says, looking slightly worse for wear in a pair of pyjamas.

“This year, you can look like shit when you vote. Yep, I’ve briefly scanned the constitution and nowhere does it say you can’t just roll out of bed and come to the polls in whatever state you woke up in. In the name of democracy, any just-out-of-bed look is a-okay.”

So off Katy Perry goes to her local polling station to demonstrate all the bizarre looks you can vote in, including wearing child’s onesie, an oversized t-shirt or even covered in slime.

To prove that voting in this year’s election requires no effort, Perry then loses her stars and stripes pyjamas – only to be tackled by two police officers who don’t quite approve of her birthday suit message.

Turns out you can’t quite vote completely naked, but like the star, we applaud anyone who will turn out to the polling station to vote for a new President this November.

Wonder what the next stunt is? Could someone get a Harambe hologram to remind us to vote?
