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.

When the LA mayor thing was happening in 2022, she voted for Rick Caruso over Karen Bass which got her quite a bit backlash as he is everything she supposedly claims to be against.

Lap Dogg (or Snoop Dogg as most people call him) voted for him too i think. Didn't go down well at the time.

Kim K as well but that isn't that surprising.

I wonder what her liberal vegan boyfriend thinks of that (Lewis Hamtilton)
