Popping culture: Ellen endorses halifamous kitty

I love how much love Tuxedo Stan, Halifax’s feline mayoral candidate, keeps on popping up all over the pop culture planet.

Tuxedo Stan has gotten his fair share of publicity. Even Anderson Cooper is a fan of Stan. Although Stan can’t really be voted in to Halifax City Hall, he can still give the other candidates a run for their money when it comes to great publicity.
