Celebrities

[lancs blue]

Funny bunch ain't they? Usually Famous for sporting, musical or TV related feats (not a comprehensive list) and thus have a huge platform.

Some live quietly and keep their mouths shut. Others are very vocal on social and political matters.

No matter your politics, views or lifestyle there's a celebrity for you. From Gary Lineker's left wing leanings, to Laurence Fox's culture wars saturated position, to Paltrow and her magic vaginal egg products, and more lately Mark Rylance's position on covid vaccines, We get the whole gamut.

But should people in this position be so loud or given such a powerful platform? No matter one's views or politics surely there's a danger in people often not particularly well qualified in much having so much potential sway*? Or is there a potential for good?

Thoughts GOT?

*I'm actually alright with Vag eggs fwiw.

Do the eggs include a whole

Oh OK. I thought this was about celebrities who hold political views (as in they're famous for other stuff)

Not people whom are well known because of their politics.

I got it wrong sorry.

Fox is an actor who has subsequently become known as an outspoken sort.

Could be either really.

Piers Morgan has no right to criticise anyone and should be granted no airtime given what went on on his watch.

Be nice if this phone hacking thing that's all gone quiet could finish this dirtball off finally.

No chance unfortunately. Just like Rebecca Brooks was able to get away Scot free whilst the lackies below all took the fall

I watched a video of Ricky lambert talking about how he’s a free thinker

That's lucky because I can't imagine anyone paying for his thoughts.

I guess I could have just called this thread "Clarkson: hero or bell end?"

Only if your a Russian protestor
There's even a video

Chicken was pucked and frozen tbf

I don't thinkk we do get the whole range of political opinion to be honest. Are there really that many right wing celebriities who state their allegiances loud and proud? I can't think of many.

I believe very few ever recover from the initial doses of tory poison.
