Yeah, her liking a picture of that hat leaves a 15% chance that shes not actually MAGA. Her also liking pots from RFK and Tucker Carlson about all the insane stuff they plan to do to this country? Eliminates the last 15%.
Shes a right wing Trumpist, that seems clear. I think its perfectly reasonable for ticket buyers of all political stripes to make their show choices accordingly.
It’s almost as if she is actively trying to become the next Laura Osnes.
LOLOL. I was talking to a friend and what I think probably happened was this. I know a lot of celebs have alternate private Instagram acts and I think she probably just forgot to switch between them.
I'm not American so honestly, as much as I HATE him, I would not want to see her cancelled just because of the fact she may have voted for Trump (America is to blame for the fact he's there, not hers).
However, Brand is a disgusting abuser, so so many stories. He's found God just like prisoners find God in prison.

... She is 46 years old and her first big gig was Pussycat Dolls. Woman isn't living in a bubble, don't be naive. Will it cost her the Tony? Absolutely not. Am I gonna talk ****? Absolutely. Just add to the pile of her insufferable personality traits.

People wear hats with different variations of this slogan, including "Make America Gay Again", "Made you look. Trump for prison" etc. All in color red, familiar font. Are you saying that all these people are promoting hate? This slogan has been used by everyone, including those promoting anti-MAGA views. The fact that some people are canceling her for this is beyond moronic."
Do you know who Russell Brand is? The fact that she is following and commenting on his Instagram post is a big problem. This is a man who's been accused of multiple counts of sexual assault as well as other things. It's not exactly a good look to even be associating with him
This! Brand had very liberal viewpoints and declared himself an atheist. As soon as accusations came out, he went into hiding and then announced he was a Christian. Dude is a grifter and liar and will do anything to save him image and try not to end up in prison.
I can understand someone having strong Christian values. That someone is delusional if they think that Christian values align with MAGA and Trump. These people spew hatred constantly and claim they are joking or make excuses.

I vaguely remember him being married to Katy Perry about a decade ago or even more. My PFC has developed around that time too and I stopped caring about every little step celebrities make and their endless drama. Majority of them are highly opinionated, narcissistic, insufferable people, many are not very educated or even intelligent so I stopped listening to what they have to say. So, no, I have very little knowledge of who Russel Brand is. The fact that he appears to be a born again Christian and an accused abuser doesn't surprise me. Christians have this funny thing when they forgive each other for all the horrible things they've done as long as they come home to Jesus.
Leave it to a Forbidden Broadway cast member to make me laugh over this.

The scream I just let out!
Ugh, so she's a big impostor, how disappointing. Wonder if the Sunset company knew this beforehand?
FWIW, Kristin Chenoweth is also pretty engaged with Brand’s Instagram, including liking this post of him “praying” with Tucker Carlson.
Sigh.

I mean, even if that's true, she's not exactly subtle on her official page. "Me on my way to make the right decision today." Uh huh.

I could only hope the community would really stick together and not attend unless it's Mandy. Show her and the production you can't laugh at faces of those who are always fighting for their rights.
Wishful thinking. At least I know I wouldn't ever attend again, I would literally boo her.

This is rich after derailing the start of this thread. Now you like this production?

Yeah, he was married to Katy Perry, and then when she was backstage for her New Year's Eve concert, he texted her to tell her he was divorcing her. Not even the decency of a call

He's also a right wing extremist and conspiracy theorist, accused of sexual assault.
So when do we expect Caroline to go on this week lol?

Oh they did? Cowards!
If Nicole is MAGA it would be disappointing but there is no way I’m going to deprive myself of her performance because of her right to exercise her democratic right in what is meant to be a free country. The same reason that I still enjoy Christine Ebersole despite her being all kind of strange (9/11 conspiracy inside job, anti-vaxxer etc.).
You just lost the election to Trump by a much larger margin than anyone expected and the culture apparently still believes the best way to deal with opposing political viewpoints is to try and cancel them. I just don’t believe this works and is counter productive to your own cause.
You don’t mind because the culture is reinforcing your own beliefs for now - but historically this is not always the case (see: McCarthyism).
Of course everyone has the right to decide where they spend their money but you’re now going after someone who seems to literally reflect the majority USA opinion in a free and democratic country.
If you don’t allow room for people who hold different views to your own and won’t allow for an open debate they will just do what they have shown they will do, vote in private. Suppressing political ideas does not change minds.

No political debate was being had here. If Nicole had explicitly said what her views were and why, it's one thing. I live in an important swing district in a battleground state. The hostility my neighbors have shown towards my family since Trump came to power is breathtaking. People we've known for years have given us the cold shoulder and deliberately excluded us from the community.
I volunteered for the Harris campaign and spoke to dozens of voters. The country is not that conservative.
Save the scolding for elsewhere. I was planning on watching Sunset Blvd, but I am not going to validate this MAGAt on my own dime. Nicole has endangered the show. She could've kept her thoughts to herself.
Sorry but you know as well as I do that if she wanted to have a debate she would also be cancelled (see Laura Osnes). The fact is the left often try to suppress anyone that doesn’t agree with them, and I think all you have to do is look at the election results to see it doesn’t work.
Do you want to die on an ideological high horse and watch while MAGA takes control over your entire country? This doesn’t work!

What a sad little life you have if you think that way. Get a grip. The majority of people are mentally mature enough to handle this better. A gigantic majority of the people in the country voted this way and are proud of it. Stop the bullying, that has no place in theatre. That attitude is why people voted like this and what will change the theatre world for the better.
