The Obama campaign has announced additional entertainment figures who will be appearing with President Obama for a final weekend campaign push.

On Saturday, Katy Perry will join Obama at a rally in Milwaukee; former President Bill Clinton and Dave Matthews will appear with him in Bristow, Va.; and Kate Walsh will deliver remarks and John Mellencamp will perform at a rally in Dubuque, Iowa.

Matthews last month said that he supported Obama, but was "slighly heartbroken" over the gridlock in Washington.
