Name celebrities whose politics you like but whose work you don't.

[Zavulon]

As an example, in my case, the limited amount I've read about Bruce Springsteen indicates that he and I are probably pretty close politically. However - and I know this will be sacrilige to some of you - I just cannot stand his music. I'd rather go to a Paris Hilton poetry reading than listen to any song of his.

How about you?

[terrya]

1. Sean Penn

He and I agree politically. I just don't like his work.

2. Ben Affleck

[fudge stripe cookays]

3. Sheryl Crow.

Liberal. But a song-stealing, untalented harpy.

[devilgrrl]

9. That's how I feel toward Tori Amos.

:hide:

[fudge stripe cookays]

11. Got no argument from me.

I own one or two of her older albums, but I am noncommittal on her in general.

[graywarrior]

4. Wow, you guys just named the three (minus Bruce) who I cannot stand.

[BlooInBloo]

6. The new Die Hard is pretty fun, though.

[fudge stripe cookays]

12. I'll check it out on cable.

Just for Timothy Oliphant. I saw him in "Catch and Release" and he's my favorite new fake boyfriend (don't tell reprehensor).

[terrya]

14. Ah, yes...Timothy Oliphant

Tres cute. I liked him in "The Broken Hearts Club" where he co-starred with Dean Cain, Zach Braff...among other hotties. The movie itself was sort of..eh. But the scenery was nice. :-)

[BlooInBloo]

18. The hottie-bad-guy, I take it? I'm more for his smokin girlfriend, myself.

[fudge stripe cookays]

24. Hmmm..

Don't remember hearing about that one. But I'll have to check out my new sweetie.

There's a scene in "CAR" where he and Jennifer Garner are against this wall, and just kind of suddenly lunge at each other and I was like....

:wow:

woof.

[Joe Fields]

5. George Clooney.

I have no use for him as an actor, but I do like his politics. And, you are not alone on the Springsteen issue. I seriously dislike his music.

[Iris]

8. Agree. Although, I did enjoy "Good Night & Good Luck."

[Zavulon]

15. Agree on Clooney, although I did like him in "The Peacemaker."

And I'm glad not to be alone in the Springsteen thing, so thanks for letting me know.

[devilgrrl]

7. Dave Matthews

eom

[skygazer]

20. Agreed on that

His stuff is like nails on a blackboard to me.

[Guava Jelly]

10. Dixie Chicks

I like them as individuals Natalie has a beautiful voice and they are talented Musicians.
But I just cant get into their music

[Zavulon]

17. Good one.

I'd almost rather listen to Springsteen. Their music is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

[underpants]

13. Mao

No hold it I have that backwards-like his work not too crazy about the politics side of it

[Yavin4]

16. Rosie O'Donnell and Roseanne Barr

They may have been funny at one point in their careers, but neither are funny now.

[Zavulon]

19. Rosie's a great example of one of mine, too.

I never thought she was funny, ever. At least Roseanne was at one point.

[slj0101]

21. Sean Penn, Madonna, Barbara Streisand, The Dixie Chicks,

R.E.M., Jon Bon Jovi, Coldplay, Drew Berrymore, Rage Against the Machine, Diddy, Green Day...

I could go on all day.

[terrya]

22. I'd include U2.

Love the charitable work, Bono. Music sucks, though.

[RubyDuby in GA]

23. Nope - anyone who hangs out with Bush doesn't make the list

And his voice is completely shot. Lay off the cigs and booze man!

[mitchum]

25. Ben Affleck, Cheryl Crow, Margaret Chao, Garrison Kellior, Jeanene Garafolo...

Dave Matthews, U2, that guy who plays the dad on Seventh Heaven, Hootie and The Blowfish, Conor Oberst, Rosie O'Donnell, Joy Behar...and there are more

[Left Is Write]

26. Mr. LIW feels the same way about Springsteen.

I love him; Mr. LIW can't stand him, though he agrees with his politics.

[Alexander]

27. Bono

He can't sing any more. He needs to let The Edge play more guitar and keep quiet.

[Zavulon]

28. Excellent choice.

I never liked U2 to begin with; I thought they were a barely passable and highly overrated band. How they reached their current demigod status is beyond me.
