A quick Google of Leelee's bio turns up that she was born and raised in France before attending high school (her highest level of education) in New York. Does not say whether or not she graduated, what type or the name of the school...an empty minded French export, at least partially educated in New York, takes it upon herself to assume the position of DNC Propaganda Minister. How wonderfully ambitious.
She should shut her mouth and go back to doing what she does best...starring in subpar thrillers about truckers with Steve Zahn.

I wonder how many of these people were there for the photo-op rather than actually seeing the movie. I think some of them will go anywhere just to get their picture in the press..

The only one I am kind of surprised about is Chris Rock. I am not that familiar with him but I seem to recall he was pretty level headed. He had a bit once where he was talking about how the media was trying to find all sorts of reasons why a guy would go around shooting people. He ended with the question, "What ever happended to 'Crazy'?".
I thought that was pretty good. Maybe I am remembering wrong.

The more they show themselves, the less income they make. Fantastic. Keep up the good work.

Chris Rock used to be funny and candid, but now that the infinitely more talented (and pointed) Dave Chappelle has made him irrelevant, Rock has sunk into cheap race jokes for his laughs. In his last standup, he blamed the "evils" of tobacco, guns, and white collar crime on white people, ranting for about an hour on the subjects.
Rock is an idiot.

An amalgam of glitterati and illiteratti..

Should we add these jerkoffs to our ever growing H'weirdo Boycott List? Why, certainly. These rocket scientists don't understand that they're competing for an ever-shrinking market of time.
Why do I need to watch Mortensen when I can plug in a good Duke DVD? Your agent needs to explain that equation to you, Viggo.

I'm convinced that these stars, and others like them, understand that the positions they take are unpopular, and involve the risk loosing the support of their fans. But that's part of the reason they do it: it makes them feel heroic and enhances their standing among other Hollywood liberals. He/she is an actor who's willing to risk their career to speak out on these important issues, or so the rational goes.
Maybe the root of all this need to affirm their moral courage is a feeling that, as an actor, one is a fraud, a pretender, not worthy of the status of "hero" that the fans confer upon you because you play heroic roles. In any case, they are pathetic people, IMHO.

Oh, they're just mad because after so many decades of liberalism predominating in Hollywood and even with the advantage of so much money, tv time, print interviews, and other forums to spread their ideas to the public in ways no one else can, very few Americans agree with them on most things. Of course they're bitter--if you had millions, were being interviewed weekly, and still couldn't get many people to do what you're trying to get them to do, wouldn't you get frustrated?

Time for old uncle Exile to break things down for everyone:
1. Martin Sheen - Plays the president on TV. He thinks that makes him an expert or something. If he played a doctor, would he start performing surgery?
2. Leonardo DiCaprio - I thought he died from drinking coke and eating pop-rocks. But seriously, this little Pansy's career is going great! He'll be doing gay porno in a few months.
3. Ellen Degeneres - another celebrity powerhouse! (God I hope she doesn't do porn)
4. David Duchovny - Well, X-files was a good show, and how about everything else he's done. Oh wait, he hasn't done anything else.
5. Sharon Stone - Great, just what I need, political commentary from an aging hag who's greatest lifetime achievement is forgetting her underwear.
6. Meg Ryan - Hey Meg, shouldn't you be getting more plastic surgery in your vain attempt at stalling Father Time?
7. Ashton Kutcher - Dude where's my talent!
8. Demi Moore - Shouldn't she be getting home, it's past her boyfriend's bedtime.
7. Jodie Foster - Jodie, Jodie, Jodie. You're not fooling anyone. Just put on a pair of doc Martins and start following golf.
8. Drew Barrymore - Damn druggie (sorry, got lazy on that one)
9. Chris Rock - Hey didn't you love him in that movie with Jackie Chan?
10. Jack Black - The poor man's Tom Green
11. Matthew Perry - ?
12. Diane Lane - sorry, drawing a blank here. Is she Superman's girlfriend?
13. Marisa Tomei - Who did she sleep with to get an Oscar?
14. Viggo Mortensen - I have no idea. Sorry.
