Why do celebrities generally lean to the liberal side?

Retread asked:


They are rich, so they wouldn’t want more taxes. To safeguard their properties, they would want guns, and so on. The only issue that I can see them being so liberal about is abortion, which they would need a lot of because they get laid by random people every day. So why are celebrities exactly liberal? I know there are conservative/moderate/politically apathetic ones too, but celebrities generally tend to be liberal.

    Because most of them have no more than a high school education and are bascially ignorant. (I’m not saying all with just a H.S. education are ignorant)

    Political correctness, it’s pretty important to them, since the media is 99% liberal, and you live in a world where media can make you or break you… you tend to want to be on the good side of the media.

  11. Pfo Says:

    Most celebs are hiding their money off-shore, Monaco or the Carribean. They aren’t stupid.

    I don’t know why they are, but they weren’t always. Back in the day they were more conservative, and they sided with the US military.

  12. MaØ-bama Says:

    Because acting is a liberal profession, in politics, real life, and otherwise.

  13. The fed up matthew™ Says:

    They completely fail to recognize that without our great freedoms and capitalist economy that nobody could afford to see their movies. They are letting emotions guide their political support instead of thinking about the real consequences of modern liberalism.

  14. crazy2all Says:

    Most of them don’t come from money. Family upbringing has a lot to do with political affiliation.

  15. Poopy Pants Says:

    It is not a general lean, it is an overwhelming lean.

    Because they have compassion on their fellow man, unlike Conservatives.

    They become so successful that they tend to be insulated from the real people in society. At this point they lose touch with reality and the average citizen. Wow….that sounds like the democratic party today.
