Wall Street Protests Get A Boost Of Star Power, Susan Sarandon Shows Up At Demonstration

A week-old Wall St. protest got a little star power Tuesday in the form of activist actress Susan Sarandon.

"I'm just here to be educated," the "Bull Durham" star said as some of the young demonstrators in the crowd asked each other, "Who is she?"

Sarandon, 64, stopped by the Occupy Wall Street encampment in Zuccotti Park on her way to catch a flight to Italy.

The protesters peppered her with questions about climate change, consumerism and the economy.
