Bette Midler urges audience at gay club to campaign, vote for Democrat

For the big event with The Divine Miss M, Lady Shug created a special, one-of-a-kind outfit, starting with a Barack Obama T-shirt split down the back, then laced up like a corset with red ribbon.

The shirt, which featured a stylized, red-white-and-blue portrait of the Democratic presidential nominee over Lady Shug’s modest bosom, had cutoff sleeves and a neckline fashioned in a sassy one-shoulder style. Below the shirt she wore a giant tutu of shiny white and red fabric. Her long legs ended in silver high heels that matched her big silver rhinestone earrings, which resembled shooting stars.
