Lady Gaga, Pink, Sia and other celebrities are encouraging their fans to legally prevent Donald Trump from assuming presidency as a part of a new campaign against the newly elected US president.

The effort is attached to a petition with more than 3.1 million signatures at publishing asking the electors of the Electoral College to reject their states votes on December 19 and instead vote for Hillary Clinton, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Gaga also took to Twitter to request her fans to sign the petition.

"If you feel scared about the current state of American politics and Whitehouse sign this petition," she wrote.
 
Pink also tweeted, "Electoral College Electors: Electoral College Make Hillary Clinton President on December 19 - Sign the petition."

The petition argues, "Mr Trump is unfit to serve. His scapegoating of so many Americans, and his impulsivity, bullying, lying, admitted history of sexual assault, and utter lack of experience make him a danger to the Republic.
