<p>Luke Bryan and some of his celebrity friends to put a unique twist on his ACM campaign for “<em>Top New Solo Vocalist</em>.” Bryan has done a fun spoof on the &#8220;<em>Don&#8217;t Vote</em>&#8221; video used during the 2008 presidential campaign with twenty-three of his closest artist friends, comedians, and professional sports buddies AND he wears a leotard and dances to &#8220;<em>Single Ladies</em>.&#8221; The video, already considered a viral success with over 20,000 views, has created quite a buzz since being posted last Wednesday on Bryan’s official YouTube page.</p>
<p><strong>BUT!</strong> There&#8217;s also a contest -- support Luke by watching and spreading the word and you could win!!</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Here are the rules:</strong><br />
1. The contest runs between March 1, 2010, and March 12, 2010.<br />
2. To enter, use the widget on the site below to send the message to your friends. All you have to do is enter your email address and your friend&#8217;s email address.<br />
3. The message will automatically be sent to your friend with a personalized link to the &#8220;I&#8217;m Voting For Luke Bryan&#8221; video. All your friend has to do is view the video.<br />
4. Now here&#8217;s the catch . . . the contest isn&#8217;t about who sends the most messages, but who gets the most people to watch the video.<br />
5. The person who gets the most friends to view the video will win an autographed Epiphone DR-100 acoustic guitar and an autographed copy of <em>Doin&#8217; My Thing</em> and <em>I&#8217;ll Stay Me</em>.<br />
