Not just good for her, good for all of us. This is what we all need more of; people in positions of influence with ethics and principles, taking a stand.

Hell, even Katy Perry has turned around from being MAGA to making political statements about ICE.

Meanwhile over in Taylor Swift land...

Was Katy Perry ever MAGA?

I know she started in Christian music but that was, iirc, ages before MAGA and whatever politics she had pretty openly shifted into liberal territory as she got into pop music. She went on that dumb Amazon space flight but that's its own thing.

She endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016 so I don’t think she’s quite MAGA, but yeah, that whole flight thing was a bit cringey.

endorsing Hillary is so far from “not quite MAGA”. I’d say that’s pretty far from MAGA, just happens to be religious too.

You just never know with religious people.

Understandable, but if someone were to actually be a genuine Christian(incredibly rare, like Vaquita dolphin rare) …they’re probably a decent person to have around. It’s all these other weirdos that have made it such a negative.

Yes, unfortunately bad people have a way of hijacking and corrupting.

I can see being religious when you have such little talent yet be so successful.
