Six-time Tony Award winning Broadway star Audra McDonald (she also has two Grammys and an Emmy!) took to Twitter yesterday morning to add a little inspiration or PSA or whatever you'd like to call it to her vocal warm-up.


See if you can find the hidden message:


Fans seemed to love McDonald's feisty encouragement to get out there and make their own voices heard in these mid-term elections:







Of course, they loved her voice (you would too, if you'd ever heard her belt out "Summertime"from Porgy and Bess or had the chance to see her onstage as Jazz chanteuse Billie Holiday). . .
