Quote

I do not believe that artists or actors and people should be out there like voicing their full-blown opinions on politics because, let's face it, at the end of the day, I'm not that smart of a guy.

I'm an entertainer. Not a journalist or spokesman for anybody. Truth is, a lot of my listeners absolutely hate what I have to say.

You can't trust politicians. It doesn't matter who makes a political speech. It's all lies - and it applies to any rock star who wants to make a political speech as well.

I know I'm not supposed to have any opinions about politics, because I'm famous.

My political ideas and things like that, even my religion, I try to keep close to me because it's a personal thing, and I don't shove it down people's throats. I don't condemn any artist that wants to do that, like the Baldwins. That's their choice. But in my world, I'm just an entertainer.

I do struggle with how much and in which way, as an artist or celebrity, that you voice your political views.

I don't like publicity, being in the limelight.

A lot of my traditional audience does not appreciate my foray into politics.

I don't consider myself a political comedian because it's so hard. It takes time away from me saying terrible things about TV.

Artists like Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga have more sway over popular minds than a politician.
