Boycotting the game cuz the NFL sucks would be more worthy

She should stay out of music too *hits cymbals* ?
LULZZZ
just cuz they have tons of money, they think they're experts ?
I don't think I ever heard one of her songs, even by accident.

i like her music.. until it became overplayyyyed. i do like her new song but that will too become overplayed.
She's a talented singer, really. Listen to her duets with Tony Bennett. She's perfectly within her rights to express her political views, but I'd rather she didn't blend them into her performances. She isn't any greater thinker than any other nobody who has any particular viewpoint. Artists seem to think that because they have a platform that their viewpoints are somehow more valid than those they disagree with.

I think it is natural that each time in the history somebody gets himself elected by democratic ways to then destroy the democratic ways that those who see the pattern tell about it. At least at the end of the destruction period they are known for their resistance. Anybody else is known as the monkey with closed eyes, ears and mouths.

That's exactly what got Trump elected, so I guess so.
The funniest boycott is the boycott of budweiser which idk how people drink the shit in the first place, but I hope the south knows that means they cannot drink natural light either. The lolz
First: Go Falcons! This is my second time witnessing my home team make it this far, so I'm excited about the Super Bowl this year.

Second: Lady Gaga has a crazy following, whether you like it or not. Celebrities should use their voice to speak for the "little people," who have no voice. At least she will be heard, unlike the rest of us. She is a US citizen so I don't see why she can't speak her opinion. I don't feel like you have to be a politician to speak politics. If you live in the US and have an opinion on US politics, why not voice an opinion? I may or may not agree with her opinion, but she does have the right to voice her opinion.

I would prefer ANY honest answer or stand a celebrity takes over WHY Brady said when he was asked about current events, "I don't see problems. I am a positive person." Both an ignorant comment and a reckless one.

It's almost impossible to know people's intentions until they reveal them, especially people on screen whom we haven't met. Brady's answer tells me that he either doesn't have a moral fiber or he really is that ignorant.

I can't believe that I'm about to defend Tom Brady but maybe he simply doesn't want to publicly discuss politics. No matter what he says, someone will rip it to shreds. I think quite a few celebrities would prefer to not get into it. Religion and politics are very polarizing subjects and people are so fucking sensitive if you disagree with them. Did you ever try having a disagreement with a SJW? It's rarely worth the time or effort.

You should be allowed to not have an opinion as much as you should be allowed to have an opinion.

I'm guessing that it's risky for celebrities to come out for or against a controversial issue. They don't want to piss of their fans.

A big Lolz at people having a whinge at performers having a political view. We all know the majority of you wouldn't have a problem with it if they represented your personal views.
Totally agree. Celebrity or not, they can have an opinion just like us. No one is forced to listen to it or agree with it.


Lady Gaga's family are made up of immigrants. Considering today's political climate in the US, I think any views she might've expressed would've been very valid.

So's mine, and their views are diametrically opposed. And I'm quite sure they're not in the minority. I never said that her opinions aren't valid, only that they aren't any more valid than those who disagree with hers.

I'm a bit unclear. Do you think I think your opinions aren't valid?

No, but the opinions of public figures in general tend to create the impression that they are in the majority (or "right") because their voices are heard by more people and more often, and are not often publicly challenged. It's why they do it.

Cool cool. Just wanted to clear things up because I thought you maybe felt I wasn't taking your opinions seriously.

I guess what I was trying to say just because someone is celebrity doesn't mean they are totally removed from reality. Her family are immigrants, whats happening now in America could've affected her family if their circumstances were different. For people to say she should stay out of it is ludicrous.

I have to say I don't totally agree with you saying public figures are more likely to be considered right with their opinions because they are heard more. It depends on the public figure. If it's a celebrity I don't agree. Sure they have their fans that will agree with them but from my point of view celebrity views are more likely to be dismissed purely because they are celebrities. Just because I'm hearing what they're saying doesn't mean I'm agreeing with them.

On an individual level, sure. But human behavior is such. It's why commercials are made, it's how public opinion is formed. It wouldn't be done if it weren't effective.
