HENRY ROLLINS RANTS AGAINST CELEBS

Back



Outspoken rocker and host of The Henry Rollins Show on IFC, Henry Rollins has never been shy with his point of view. Rollins has toured Afghanistan to support the troops and has something in common with celebrities like Angelina Jolie and her work in Africa. But don't get Henry started when it comes to famous people getting up on their soap boxes. "Celebrities I don't really care. Quite honestly when celebrities sound off about politics, when celebrities take a stand, I tune out. When Barbra Streisand, 'goes I think,' I'm like, 'click.' Don't want to know. Just because celebrities don't mean much to me. I'm not putting them down, but people may say, 'then why do you speak?'...

I think the point he is making is that more people need to research and learn from a variety of sources (non-NWO media) and then have their OWN ideas. Have your own opinion. The goal is to share with each other and evolve and refine that opinion so that it is one that allows you always to be learning more.

88truth. Let me get this straight, you're an aryan skin who pays attention to or even comments on contemporary entertainment media? Have mine eyes seen true beauty before this day? I believe that we are all captivated. PLEASE TELL US MORE.

It's hypocritical and irresponsible of him to tell his audience to tune-out celebrities. Everyone has a right to speak up and without celebrities speaking up and getting attention on important issues OF THE PEOPLE, wed be in a lot more trouble than we are. The establishment wants celebrities to have 0 influence because they can be a dangerous if people start listening. Without celebs, the people would be left with almost no voice. Thats a scary thought. Celebs are the voice of the people.

Hey, bonehead... Celebrties are not the voice of anyone. Go masturbate while reading the Turner Diaries.
