Comeback kid Mickey Rourke, one of the few conservative leaning actors in Hollywood believes actors should shut up about politics, but apparently that rule doesn’t apply to him.
Rourke told GQ magazine that “Actors should shut up about politics, because they tend to be ill-informed finger-pointers who just cozy up to some flavor-of-the-month liberal, you know?”
In the same interview he defends George W Bush, and talks about politics, which is a little hypocritical in itself, but then we find today that he’s featuring in a PETA campaign.
Now his choice of PETA campaign is actually a good one (as opposed to say sea kittens ): desexing dogs to prevent unwanted puppies, but still, didn’t he say that actors shouldn’t be talking about politics?
