Alice Cooper once said, “I don’t like to mix politics and rock ‘n’ roll,” adding, “When musicians are telling people who to vote for, I think that’s an abuse of power. You’re telling your fans not to think for themselves, just to think like you. Rock ‘n’ roll is about freedom — and that’s not freedom.” I wish more people was like that

Keanu gave $50k to our soup kitchen for the homeless and didn't ask for a single damned thing in return. He even helped to unload the trucks. He's just a guy who wanted to help and so he did.

I was never a big Elvis fan but he won my instant respect when I saw an old clip where someone asked him a political question and he answered "Ma'am, I'm just an entertainer". Bravo, Elvis.

One of my favorite actors is Tom Hardy and yet I know little of his personal life or opinions. He was once asked about this and he said something to the effect of "my job is to portray characters and roles that are believable in films. It is difficult to be effective in this when half the audience thinks you are personally an asshole".

“ The finest people I’ve ever met were in pubs” Absolutely touching.
-
"The more we see of these people, the less we like them" How ridiculously true that is indeed

I love that I came across this video days after finding out that Jennifer Lawrence JUST said in an interview that she was the very first female lead in an action movie. The "out of touch" is STAGGERING. Even in their own industry...
-
Ah yes the time when they just acted and were nice to fans instead of lectured them on how to live from their ivory towers
-
"They made their carreer out of speaking words written by other people." Damn.. That is perfectly said.

“They’ve made their careers out of saying words written by other people. They’ve spent years surrounded by well-paid Yes Men that never challenge their opinions or call them out on their BS.” Perfectly said.

Danny Trejo, the actor who mostly in B-Movies and most famously playing as Machete is actually a chill and humble guy in real life. He's even having his own taco restaurant and during pandemic, he gives free tacos to homeless people and also for people who need more. He builds the taco restaurant because he loves to and just want to make people happy.

The first song to play on MTV was called “Video killed the radio star”. Social Media has done it again, the mysterious movie star has become extinct.

I think we should all take a moment to appreciate Keanu Reeves, Nic Cage, Kurt Russel, and the rest of the actors who remained true to the craft.

"There are still some celebrities that seem to be good people." Cue four separate shots of Robin Williams because he was an international treasure that we all dearly miss and some of us still get teary eyed when we think about his death.

Christopher Lee was a proper gentleman. The extras on the set of BBC's Ivanhoe were getting treated like dirt, even more than usual. Mr Lee spotted it, took the abusive puffed up little Assistant Director aside, and had a few quiet words. To this day, I never knew what he said to him, but you could actually see the AD deflating like a scolded child, after that it was all "Please" and "thank you" from him.
-
Kurt Russell said it best when he said actors shouldn’t express their thoughts on politics
-
This is absolutely bang on. Social media has caused their downfall. Never has the phrase "familiarity breeds contempt" been more appropriate with celebrities. The best celebs that are still the most admired are the ones that stay away from social media.

There was a time long ago when producers didn’t want their stars to go on TV talk shows because it made them look too common, too real. It broke the illusion of a “movie star,” and that was bad for business.
