Finding celebrities who support Senator/GOP Presidential Candidate John McCain and Governor/GOP Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin, is like trying to find several needles in a haystack—literally. However, where there is a will, there is a way and with a few well worded Google searches, I was finally able to locate a few articles and videos (other than Heidi Montag) that support the John McCain and Palin ticket.
That said, here is your list of celebrities who support Republicans:
1) Lacey Chabert
2) Angie Harmon
3) Patricia Heaton
4) Dean Cain
5) James Caan
6) John Voight
7)Stephen Baldwin,
8)Robert Davi
9) Sylvester Stallone
10) Robert Duvall
11)Wilford Brimley
12) Lou Ferrigno
13) Adam Carolla
14) Victoria Jackson
15) Gerald McRaney
16) Jon Cryer
17) Lorenzo Lamas
18) Kevin Sorbo
19) George Newbern
Frankly, I don’t think there is enough diversity in Hollywood when it comes to politics, but I find it refreshing (though my own political leanings fall along Libertarian and Independent lines) to know that there are a few celebrities who, like eagles, fly alone -- instead of the following the herd mentality.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Conservative Celebrity Supporters
- A trend of more public figures coming out as right-wing may disrupt the typical political leanings of Hollywood.
- Celebrity Political Influence
- Celebrities expressing political opinions and endorsing candidates is becoming more common, presenting opportunities for disruptive innovation in the political marketing industry.
- Alternative Political Leanings
- Celebrities breaking from the typical liberal Hollywood trend may disrupt traditional political role models and inspire marketing efforts targeted at these subgroups.
Sectors Adopting This
- Political Marketing
- As more celebrities endorse political candidates, innovative marketing strategies and technologies may be developed to capitalize on their influence.
- Entertainment
- The presence of conservative celebrities in Hollywood presents an opportunity for disruption in the entertainment industry through the creation of non-traditional content.
- Politics
- The emergence of right-wing celebrity supporters may disrupt traditional political power dynamics and inspire new campaigning strategies.
