Michael Stipe says he would love for President Obama to use his songs on the campaign trail. The former R.E.M. frontman, who recently demanded that Fox News stop using his song “Losing My Religion,” which aired during their coverage of the Democratic National Convention, says he would love for the president to use one of his tunes. “I would be so flattered,” he told us at the Vs. Magazine dinner at Exchange Alley, offering up R.E.M’s “ ‘Every Day Is Yours To Win,’ because of the title.” Stipe, who also confirmed that, despite speculation, he is not reuniting R.E.M, spent the night chatting with Josh Hartnett and his girlfriend, Tamsin Egerton, and model Helena Christensen, who shot the mag’s photos of Liv Tyler. “I love portraits of people,” Christensen told us. “It’s any face, it’s any personality, for any reason. It’s an old woman sitting on a bench or a kid running on a beach. It’s so inspiring.” She continued, “I’m sure that I learned from my job as a model. It definitely taught me a lot about photography and vice versa. It’s been really awesome that I’ve gotten to do both jobs at the same time, because they’re very similar but, then again, very different. The fact that I got to be in front and behind the lens is really gratifying. I feel like I was in photography school the entire time I was modeling.”
