Glad I never bought any of her albums anyway.

She thinks she's a much better singer than she is. In that same interview she talks about how she probably would have become an opera singer, if she hadn't gotten caught up in pop. She's in the movie version of "Pirates of Penzance" and it's fairly clear from that that major opera Diva was never a career path for her.

She's a Mexican-American, despite the German name. She's had some good success singing Mexican folk songs. My suggestion is that she decamp for Cancun forthwith, I'm sure there are many tourist joints there who can provide her with gainful employment. Since America s*cks so much.

Yeah, me too, although I've never really liked her voice or her.

Whatever is the author talking about? It's not bigotry if it's against Christians...

We were going to burn her albums but no one could find their old 8-tracks.

I will never understand Linda Ronstadt. Why alienate people who like her?

The problem with calling some non Christians bigots is that they have no enlightened conscience and they'll feel that criticism never applies to them any-ways...but they'll happily turn the phrase around onto Christians...some of whom exercise no wisdom and discernment regarding conscience and faith.

Thus these Christians feel as though they must carry the whole world of "progressivist ideology" on their shoulders instead of their own CROSSES, inadvertantly giving into the evil they are to stand against!

If Ronstadt had said the following

It’s a real conflict for me when I go to a concert and find out somebody in the audience is a ... fundamental Christian Jew. It can cloud my enjoyment.

that would have been a career ender. No ifs, ands, or buts. No Hollywood celebs talking about censorship and freedom of speech.

I will never understand any of the thinking of these celebrities. Don't they understand approx. half of the population is Republican? Linda Ronstadt has just lost half of her fan base.

Are they that dumb?

to be fair, she was very sexy, or even cute, in the early 70's

Talk about not knowing her audience.

My dad bought all her albums with Nelson Riddle, and she's definitely on his sh!t list now.

I have a lot of movies from people whose politics I don't agree with. However most of them don't go out of their way to show they're smarter than me and I hope the rest of Hollywood learns that lesson - fast. Being a snob is very unbecoming.

"I want people to get their head up out of their mashed potatoes and learn something about the issues and go and vote"

Pot calling Kettle, come in Kettle, over.

From the physical evidence, it's quite obvious that somebody hasn't lifted her head out of the mashed potatoes in quite some time.
