Actress Heather Graham has claimed that she and her coven of witches did their bit to help Barack Obama become the US President.

The 39-year-old Hangover star said she and her pals sent the president positive energies so he would get elected to the White House, reports The China Daily.

She said: "It's just for fun. We never jinx someone with evil spells. We meet in order to release positive energy. When one of us wishes to meet a great guy, we try to have an influence on that.

"We sent Barack Obama positive energies, so that he would become the next president. I always liked magic. Now when I see Obama's picture in the paper, I feel good."
