"Fidel Castro is a genius!" gushed Jack Nicholson after a visit with the Cuban Fuhrer in 1998. "We spoke about everything," the actor rhapsodized. "Castro is a humanist like President Clinton. Cuba is simply a paradise!" .
Jack Nicholson has been saying such things for years now. Many of his Hollywood cohorts follow suit. Francis Ford Coppola, Kevin Costner, Steven Spielberg, Woody Harrelson, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Leo DiCaprio, Chevy Chase, Robert Redford among many others have all waxed euphoric on Castro and his island prison.
While discussing the book, Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Tyrant on his show recently, Bill O'Reilly refered to these celebs as "Hollywood pinheads." But there might be more to these celebrity plugs for a tyrant who jailed more of his subjects than Hitler or Stalin than the usual celebrity vacuity upstairs.
"My job was to bug their rooms," revealed Cuban intelligence defector Delfin Fernandez while on a Madrid TV show recently, "with both cameras and listening devices. Most people have no idea they are being watched while they are in Cuba. But their personal activities are filmed under orders from Castro himself. Child sex, drug use, orgies, those are the sort of things they want to tape, anything--shall we sayethically incorrect. And Castro's undercover agents don't wait around hoping the famous visitors might randomly engage in these things. They tempt them, bait them with offers." According to some sources, Havana has recently topped Bangkok as the mecca for child sex.

Imagine the possibilities for blackmail if this is true (who knows). I bet you could get a star to say or do just about anything to keep this stuff quiet.
Cuba would be a "paradise" to anyone with enough money to hire servants off the street. The population is as poor as church snakes: they don't have a pit to hiss in.
Next time I hear a Hollyweirder waxing euphoric about el Presidente I'm going to wonder if they were recently filmed doing little boys or girls in Havana.
Spielberg's presence on the list is so full of irony. He opposes Communist terrorists who are Arabs while supporting all the others (sort of like Pat Buchanan in reverse), and here he is fawning over a major PLO-supporter who resents the fact that the US is holding its moslem POW's on his own island! Delicious!
You can't make stuff like this up, folks!
You can't make stuff like this up. There's something wrong with that boy.
Everything I've always thought of those plastic people has just been confirmed. The Castro/Hollywood Mutual Admiration Society. So fitting.
I won't wonder if......their actions seem to confirm the suggested reason for their kissing castro ass.
OMG! Imagine the impact this kind of blackmail would have on US soil?.....oh, wait! would we bail out Woody Harrelson, Leo DiCaprio, Chevy Chase, Robert Redford, etal?
well, maybe Robert Redford.

Unfortunately, I think most of the Hollywoodies would be gushing this stuff whether they were blackmailed or not.
Glover must be into him for a herd of goats and a kindergarten class by now.
Having lived in Park City when Redford has had his lunatic fringe admiration fest called Sundance, twice, I wouldn't bail him out of the slam if he was in the same cell as the man who raped Dallas, and the go was 10 cents...
Why do I suspect that, somewhere on the island, there is a black sheep that bahs, "Daaaddy...."
I think Chevy Chase would probably authorize the release of any embarassing video just to get back on television one final time.
I have a hard time imagining any sane person gushing about Castro.
It might be credible if all the Holly-Woodens built mansions in "paradise" and took up residence there. Then the Screen Actors Guild could endorse Cuba as a "workers paradise" too.
Obviously, they're not.
Col. Nathan Jessup: I run my unit how I run my unit. You want to investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances. I eat breakfast 300 yard from 4000 Cubans who are trained to kill me, so don't think for one second that you can come down here, flash a badge, and make me nervous.
Col. Nathan Jessup: We follow orders son. We follow orders, or people die. It's that simple. Are we clear?
Col. Nathan R. Jessup: I want you to stand there in your faggoty white uniform, and with your Harvard mouth extend me some fucking courtesy.
Col. Nathan R. Jessup: You want answers?
Daniel Kaffee: I think I'm entitled.
Col. Nathan R. Jessup: You want answers?
Daniel Kaffee: I want the truth!
Col. Nathan R. Jessup: You can't handle the truth!
The real Cuba.

Take a look at how their buildings and cities are falling down in ruin.
Yep, it's a paradise. I get sick, recalling how our "movie stars" praise Castro.
And now we know THE REST OF THE STORY.
Not gonna post it, not gonna post it......OH YES I AM!!!
Showbiz kids makin' movies of themselves
They don't give a f*k about anybody else
