Celebrities i just can't stand anymore. They have security with them 24/7. Even the CEO'S are just disgusting. They live in their mansions not caring about the average person.
I can't look at amazon or starbucks the same. Everybody in this country deserves security. They treat our military like crap.

Just professional pretenders who believe they are special.

I was in Vegas at Signature Flight Support getting ready to head north to Montana. Some actress, I forget her name was trying to get to LA. Her charter plane had some hydraulic issues and wasn't going anywhere any time soon. She saw me paying my bill and literally demanded me to take her to LA.

Without looking at her I said no. That's all, just no. She got very upset because she felt special and I wasn't even acknowledging her presence.

The only person of class in that profession is Rosanna Arquette.

I've never really cared about them one way or another, but now that they use their public forum to spread their warped political views, I will be, not only not caring about them, but actively boycotting their work.

It is mind boggling to me, that anyone who makes their living by audiences paying to see them, would deliberately chose to actively alienate half their customers. A smart person would keep their personal opinions private.

Not relevant before. Not relevant now.

DiCaprio preaches climate change then rents a yacht that gets 50 FEET to the gallon for him and his groupies.
Ed Asner and his commie buddies waaaaay back...
Fonda even further back.

The hypocrisy is what gets me the most. Especially when people like Leo DiCaprio lecture us about climate change while they jet around the world. Or celebs who complain about Trump's vulgarity but see no problem with insulting his wife or his son

Speaking of hypocrisy:



Do ALL celebrities offend you? Or just the ones you don't agree with.... [hint: Gene Simmons is very outspoken on politics, and is a huge celebrity. He has no basis for his pie-hole comments. There are just as many conservative celebs that don't seem to bother the right.]

and OP: Might want to do a bit of research on what Starbucks does for Veterans. I can't stand their coffee, overrated and overpriced, but they are not one-sided, nor hypocritical...

I can't look at them the same way either. I keep thinking how stupid they sound preaching about the poor immigrants or illegals knowing full well they have murdered the innocents. Americans first.

Sometimes you just end up finding out who the nut jobs are. I.e. Ashley Judd.

My issue is why the American public cares what they think? I don't get it- they are no more knowledgeable than the trash collector.
