Hey dont forget Ric Flair the pro wrestler....WOOOOOOO! lol.


Actually I know of quite a few actors/entertainers that lean towards the right. Adam Sandler, Mel Gibson, Britney Spears (ouch lol), Jessica Simpson, I THINK Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger (obviously), Clint Eastwood is a Libertarian but does lean to the right on alot of issues, Dennis Miller, Chuck Norris and others.

I also think that "old" hollywood back in the day leaned pretty heavily to the right.

Country Music is like 99% Republican and that other 1% is the Dixie Chicks and Tim McGraw lol.

Im going to guess that the majority of NASCAR leans to the right. I admit I am generalizing though and kind of grouping them in with the Country Music crowd which may or may not be unfair but its not meant to be an insult.

Charles Barkley is a Republican.

So they have their fair share of celebrities as well.

I personally dont care about someones political affiliation. I lean more towards the left, however I like SOME country music. I am a big Sly Stallone fan, I was a big Ric Flair fan when I was younger, and hey the Chuck Norris "facts" are still pretty funny stuff.

Its pretty interesting though to look at the differences between the celebrities who lean to the right compared to the left and the different types of entertainment they are involved in on average.

Of everyone on that list, Adam Sandler is the only one I would think would be liberal if I wasn't familiar with his politics. The rest are mostly either the "tough guy" sorts, and people who are more into "simple" things such as country music. Im not saying "simple" in a bad way, im kind of saying that they arent quite as artsy fartsy.

Whereas you look at alot of the liberal actors and musicians out there and alot of the more outspoken ones are very "artsy"

Its just interesting to look at.
