Shonda Rhimes, the high-profile TV executive behind Grey’s Anatomy and Scandal, has given a big celebrity boost to Hillary Clinton with a new endorsement ad featuring the three leading ladies from her mega-hit shows.

Rhimes – along with Kerry Washington from Scandal, Ellen Pompeo from Grey’s Anatomy and Viola Davis from How to Get Away With Murder – all offer heartfelt endorsements for Clinton in a dramatic video that compares the Democratic frontrunner to the strong female characters Rhimes has created on her shows.

“I make television filled with the kind of characters I imagine we all can be,” Rhimes says in the new ad.

“Our characters are on television,” Washington says.

“But the real world has Hillary Clinton,” Rhimes says.
