The convention - taking place next month (25-28Aug08) in Denver, Colorado - became a hit in the music scene after booking acts including Kanye West, Pharrell Williams and Wyclef Jean to perform.

Event organisers have yet to release an official list of confirmed performers and talent.

But DNC spokesman Damon Jones confirms: "We are expecting lots of people to be here, big names, small names and everyday American names."

Other celebrities guests expected to attend the convention include: Warren Beatty, Annette Bening, Susan Sarandon, Forrest Whitaker and actor-turned-director Ed Norton - who is working on a documentary about Obama.
