Hi Jenny,

We checked with our surrogates team, and the campaign does not have a
shareable celebrities list available, but they suggested this article as a
starting point:
http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/20/politics/hillary-clinton-demi-lovato-bennie-thompson/
.

To-date, notable celebrity-supporters of Italian American heritage include
Tony Bennett, Jon Bon Jovi, Lady Gaga and Ellen Pompeo.

Thank you, and hope you have a great weekend!

Abby
