2020 US Elections: Kate Beckinsale dons 'VOTE' graphic bandeau; urges fans to 'be kind'

Ahead of 2020 US Elections results, Kate Beckinsale took to Instagram to share a picture of her urging fans to vote in a unique kind of way. The actor was spotted wearing a black bandeau with golden graphic, “VOTE”.  In the caption for the picture, Kate Beckinsale mocked the person who was caught in the background of the picture. She called her the ‘ghost of Whistler’s mother’, referring to the subject of the 1871 painting by American painter James McNeil.

Kate mentioned that she was there for the whole time and who, on top of having produced such a fine American artist son despite him being primarily based in the UK, has crossed the Atlantic 11 times and lived in both Russia and London. Talking about social distancing, Kate mentioned that she is clearly observing her from a distance beyond the grave. She ended her note saying, “A comfort, all round. Good luck everyone. Be kind to yourselves, and each other”.
