Look, celebrities absolutely SHOULD be in politics. You want to know why? Because they've got a platform, they've got money, and most importantly, they've got skin in the game just like everyone else. A guy who built an empire understands economics better than some career politician who's never run anything. A woman who fought her way up in Hollywood knows about discrimination and fairness from lived experience.
You're basically saying "shut up and sing," but that's just gatekeeping power. If a celebrity's got a good idea, why does it matter what they did for a living? We don't tell doctors to stay out of business or businessmen to stay out of medicine. Democracy means everyone gets a voice.
So what's your real problem with it?
