Celebrities are doing all kinds of things to try to encourage people to vote. Some are sharing topless Instagrams, others are choreographing dance routines. But, in true Broadway style, Hairspray star Marissa Jaret Winokur put on a kinda-totally amazing, OTT patriotic outfit to get her vote on.

Marissa shared a pic on Instagram of herself voting by mail-in ballot, and her outfit is so on-point. In the photo, Marissa is wearing red, white, and blue everything—a plaid shirt, bikini top, headband, and sneaks, with her arms in the air as she prepares to mail in her ballot. “History has its eyes on you,” she wrote in the caption, a nod to the musical Hamilton.

BTW: Marissa looks strong AF. She shared on Instagram back in September that she’s been using quarantine to try get as healthy as possible. Marissa said at the time that she was inspired to get fit after realizing her weight made her high risk for COVID-19. So, she’s been doing Zoom classes with trainer Keith Anthony and eating more mindfully. “In all honestly I also needed something to focus on have a goal,” she wrote. “Six months later, I have lost almost 50 pounds.”

Marissa said at the time that she’s “been here before” but she’s noticed that she hasn’t “had asthma in months” and has been feeling good.

If you have been following my story’s you know how hard I have been working out with Keith Anthony to get healthy. Truth Covid scares me . I checked off all the boxes , I am HIGH RISK ! So I started working out at home with Keith via zoom classes and eating healthy to have a fighting chance . In all honestly I also needed something to focus on have a goal . 6 months later I have lost almost 50 pounds . We have been here before . I was scared to post photos , it’s really one day at a time for me when it comes to food . But I thought , Covid isn’t over we are all sitting ducks maybe I could inspire someone ANYONE to chose to fight! Forget how amazing this dress looks 🥰 I haven’t had asthma in months. My anxiety is at an all time high , because you know the country is such a mess . The hour or two a day I focus on working out my sadness turns to productive energy, so that I don’t watch the news and bury my head , but try to help our situation. Now we do not know ( besides the obvious) who is more susceptible to Covid losing weight will not stop the spread !! But getting my self as strong as possible to fight it at least makes me FEEL like I am doing something . It makes me FEEL like if I can kick cancers ass I can do this too. Thank you for always being part of my YO-YO journey. I can only say Today I feel strong. Today I feel like I can do anything . Today I don’t bury my head , I will workout and email our senators wear a mask and make sure Family and friends VOTE !! We have work to do on ourselves to save this nation , we need equality. We will need to FIGHT for EQUALITY. Do what you have to do personally to get in the fight . Ask for help. To be able to help others !♥️♥️Dress credit 👗 repurposed from January. 📸credit - self timer on📱-makeup by vaseline hair .. duh I do that shit myself!! 💪🏼@keithanthonytrainer 💪🏼
