[Free ThinkerNY]

Hollywood stars and celebrities are generally considered to be a liberal and Democratic-leaning community, but these celebrities are all declared Republicans according to the FEC, or known conservatives.

[Poison Pill]

Chachi is conservative? Fonzie and Richie are noted Libs.

[LiberConservative]

Very interesting list. Most I knew, but some were quite surprising. But Dr. Phil?! NO FUC_ING WAY!!

[zlala]

My mother said she was willing to give up one of her kids to adopt Karl Malone when she found out he was a Republican. And ALL of her kids are Republicans...what really could be her motivation? ;-)

[Mr. Peabody]

Richard Roundtree is a republican too.

[lilylangtree]

Very surprising.

[Joe 6-pack]

"James Earl Jones is just that much cooler now that I know he’s also a Republican (presumably not a RINO)."

JEJ is also a tab-wearing graduate of the US Army Ranger School.

Cool Alice Cooper & Ted Nugent. 50 Cent and Sammy Hagar I was not expecting to see. Nice.

[Marauder]

That goes also for Heather Locklear.

[Past Your Eyes]

Not only Chachi but Tony Banta, too.

[WhirlwindAttack]

Don’t forget Adam Baldwin, aka Animal Mother from Full Metal Jacket and Jayne Cobb from Firefly/Serenity.
Hell of a nice guy too.
Yeah, I’m a Browncoat!

Outside of the avowed or registered Republincans, most of this is speculation based on whether someone had performed for a Republican function.

This slide show for Democrats would take the rest of you life to view.

And what, exactly, is the point of this?

[Captain Beyond]

LOL Yeah Adam has made the Scifi rounds for sure with roles in Firefly, The X-Files, Outer Limits, The Visitor, SG-1, Angle, etc, and most recently in Chuck. From what I have seen of him I think he is much better actor than Alec.

[CaptRon]

When you think about it, the Repblicans should be the natural party for African-Americans; founded on anti-slavery. The Dems were THE party of slavery. It’s just Lyndon Johnson bought them off.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

In the eyes of whoever put that slideshow together, apparently “Republican” automatically means “conservative.” That would explain the Governator’s appearance in that list.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

Adam isn’t one of THOSE Baldwins.

IMO, Alec isn’t a bad actor, but I have a very low opinion of him as a person.

[StormEye]

"Interesting that Dennis Hooper and Jon Voight are ‘Pubbies, as they both co-starred in two of the most decadence celebrating films of the late 60’s: “Easy Rider” and “Midnight Cowboy”, respectively"

Also, Dennis Hopper in the bizarre movie "Blue Velvet".

[rintense]

He was also in Independence Day, one of my guilty pleasure flicks.

Britney has performed concerts in Canada and is due to play again in Canada. Maybe she thinks Canada is just another US state or has no idea where she is most of the time....or maybe she thought those great lakes were oceans. :)

There’s Gerald McRaney, Jameson Parker, Jane Russell, James Arness, Lara Flynn Boyle, Gary Sinise(of course!), Charlie Daniels, Hank Williams Jr., James Caan, rockers Marilyn Manson and Steve Tyler (Aerosmith), also actor John Malkovich. Toby Keith reportedly converted away from Dem. party because he thought that too many left-wing kooks took over the party! Many of these may not all be Repub.s, many not even conservatives, but they either are friendly to Repub. leaders, the troops, the war effort, supportive to GWB, McCain and Palin, etc.!

[Verbosus]

Floating around on the web is pictures of “W” with ZZ Top members Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard and Dusty Hill. They played at President Bush's inauguration.
