The Unbearable Irrelevance of Trump Haters
By Patricia McCarthy
Now that Inauguration Day is over, it is amusing to reflect upon all those entertainers who refused to perform, whether on not they were invited to contribute to the day's celebration. Newsflash! No one missed you, not one of you. The one thing the Trump victory is not about is celebrity endorsements. Once and for all, our Hollywood elite should realize that no one cares what they think off-screen, small or large. No one. It is actually quite likely that their uninformed and blind allegiance to Hillary Clinton hurt her electoral viability. For a country concerned about the debasement of our culture, the rich but clueless "stars" who supported HRC -- Jay-Z, Chance the Rapper, Pusha T, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Q-Tip, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, etc. -- most likely drove millions of people to Trump.
Performers like Jennifer Holliday, Paul Anka, Garth Brooks, Kiss, Andrea Bocelli should be kicking themselves with regret. To perform at any one of the day's events would have been the highlight of every one of their careers. To be so afraid of one's fans and fellow performers is a sad commentary on the false life of celebrities without core beliefs of their own. Those who did perform like Sam Moore of Sam & Dave, Lee Greenwood, Tony Orlando, Jackie Evancho, Toby Keith, the Silhouettes (amazing), The Rockettes, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and the Talladega College Marching Band are heroes all; they braved the Twitter storms, death threats and fear of career stultification. They realized that to celebrate freedom from an increasingly dictatorial government was more important than angering some ignorant fans. These people should be celebrities for each of them is a role model. Stand up for your knowledge and belief in what is right and true.
