An open letter urging congress to vote on gun control reform is signed by more than 180 Hollywood stars after senate failed to approve the proposal.

AceShowbiz - A number of Hollywood's biggest stars have come together to help stop gun violence. Over 180 stars including Lady GaGa, Katy Perry and Britney Spears have signed an open letter on Billboard magazine, demanding congress to vote on gun control reform.

Other celebrities lending their voice for the cause include Alicia Keys, Calvin Harris, Cher, Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato, Ellen DeGeneres, James Corden, Jennifer Lopez, Joan Jett, Ke$ha, Kelly Rowland, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Macklemore, Meghan Trainor, Paul McCartney, Selena Gomez, Shakira, Sia Furler and Zayn Malik.

The petition came after senate rejected gun control bill offered in the aftermath of Orlando mass shooting. Soon afterwards, Democrat House members staged a sit-in on the House floor in Washington, DC until a vote is held.

"The one thing that connects the recent tragedies in Orlando is that it is far too easy for dangerous people to get their hands on guns," the open letter reads. "We call on Congress to do more to prevent the gun violence that kills more than 90 Americans every day and injures hundreds more, including: Require a background check for every gun sale. Block suspected terrorists from buying guns."
