Cross-Posted, via Unpopular Opinion community.

There is zero reasons for anyone to listen to to someone who acts, looks or sings great talking about their life or their opinions in politics.

I don’t even have any idea why in 2026 we still have interviews with celebrities and actresses.

I even see UN, human rights and general non-profits give actresses honorable positions and make them talk. And I gotta ask, did humanity lost it’s common sense or is logic ship sinking?

Uhm, maybe you have the wrong celebrities as role-models? I’m pretty sure I’ve heard some interesting opinion pieces and side projects of some actors in some lengthy Podcasts. All the gossip and random people turned turfs are rubbish, though.

Edit: Idk, I’ve watched entore movies about Weird Al, or Freddie Mercury… Jane Fonda randomly says some good things and she’s 88yo…

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it’s something that’s widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a “General” unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let’s make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others’ opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn’t need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

6. Defend your opinion

This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don’t expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
