Famous Actress Blast Hollywood Stars For Endorsing Wars

“Sopranos” actress Drea de Matteo expressed strong disapproval of some of her Hollywood peers who have become political activists, specifically targeting Meryl Streep and George Clooney.

“I’m still a super liberal so I feel like it’s time for us all to come together but a lot of people on the Left are afraid … George Clooney, Meryl Streep, all of these huge celebrities endorsing war, supporting Dick Cheney,” the actress stated during a Wednesday appearance on Fox Business.

“I don’t understand the inversion and how people have flipped unless they’re ‘under the gun’ so to speak … I find it hard to believe that people like George Clooney or Meryl Streep don’t actually know what’s going on. Maybe they should use their bank accounts to support what’s happening in the world right now,” she added.

De Matteo also criticized the current state of the entertainment industry. “I think that Hollywood is meaningless,” she said. “The American Dream is on hold. I feel like Hollywood is dead. The music industry is dead … There’s no … artistic movement speaking out about this … You don’t see fine art. There’s usually protest art about wars and censorship. We’re stagnant right now.”

“I find it interesting to see these celebrities that are endorsing a situation that is the antithesis of what they once stood for as celebrities sort of and freedom of everything,” de Matteo remarked. “Speech, art, integrity. I question their integrity right now.”

This isn’t the first time de Matteo has criticized celebrities for their political involvement. She previously spoke with The Daily Wire about her opposition to Hollywood stars making political endorsements.

“In the past, I understood the value,” she said during an interview earlier this month. “There was a rock and roll aspect to it, you know, you had all these musicians, there was a celebration of the country. I know now that there is no celebration of this country, and there’s no patriotism.”

“I feel like a lot of these celebrities are either tone deaf, and they don’t know what’s going on,” de Matteo continued. She suggested that most “well-intentioned liberals” would “abandon ship” if they truly understood the situation.

“I support Kennedy all the way, and I’m happy that there’s unity right now.

“It feels sad to see how misinformed [celebrities] are,” she said. “If they’re not misinformed, then it makes me question their integrity as a human being and why they would want to hurt people on that level,” de Matteo commented on Hollywood stars endorsing Kamala Harris for president.
