TV Ad Against Bruce Springsteen Tour

[Sugar]

This is all just noise.

While O'Grady certainly has a right to say what she wants, this is stupid. First off, if Bruce NEVER sold another record, would Bruce really be hurting? I think not. Second, he is so beloved I can't BELIEVE this woman actually thinks she is going to turn people against him... has anyone heard her new album? Is it any good? Third, I just hate copycats, and this just seems to be an attempt at trying to re-do the whole Dixie Chicks thing. I hope the Dixie Chicks made a lot of money off all the people who blindly destroyed their Dixie Chicks albums, and then, after all the fuss died down, went out and bought them a second time because they really did like the music! And you SO can't compare the following of the Dixie Chicks to that of "The Boss"!

Additionally, it also drives me crazy when people say, "celebrities should stay out of politics," or "It's irresponsible for celebrities to speak out on political issues." Why? They are citizens, they have as much right to hold and voice an opinion as anyone else. I certainly believe they should be prepared for any ramifications, but if they are, why not voice an opinion?
