Get rich here AND criticize us?


Hugh Laurie has made himself fabulously wealthy right here in America. He's an Englishman, but he takes our money gleefully. And to show his gratitude he snipes away at out next president?

Hey, he's OUR president. Keep your foreign opinions to yourself!

Omg SquirePm you are so right. And the others should have kept their option to themselves. I use to like him when he was on house but he lost my respect.
They should just get over it. The only speech I liked came from Laurie's costar Tom Huddleston
Gave a south out to the doctors with out boarded
And he was made fun of. I read some of the replies about it. I this k Hollywood should just
Keep their rude comments to themselves. And do what the Republican's did. They sat through 8 years of Obama's in the whitehouse.

These British "theater luvvies" come over here to avoid paying taxes in their own land and tell us how to run our country? As Miz Ouiser would say,"Shut up! You're making a fool out of yourself!". I can't think of one British actor, except Michael Caine, that has a lick of sense. Socialist pigs, the lot of them.

Your next President has no problem insulting people. You can't really object when people do the same to him. Perhaps if he did not say so many stupid things, people would have less grounds to insult him.

My tolerance for politically outspoken celebrities is low to begin with, but when it's foreigners I lose my mind. Get the hell out of here then. You don't have to be here.

And this from a man who got famous for playing a drug addicted narcissistic abusive jerk who made bullying people an art form. The whole hypocritical nature of Hollywood makes my head explode.

We kicked the goddamm British out once. Let's round their Azzes up and they can go back to the middle eastern loving Europe.

How is Hollywood being hypocritical here? Trump is a real life narcissistic jerk. Why do you like him so much?

reply

This is what drives me nuts about all these liberal celebrities is have some guts and walk the walk

What happened to moving to Canada for Lena Dunham , Bryan Cranston, Amy schumer and others?

They have the money to move and quit working here but they're hypocrites and cowards.

It matters little. His nation (proud as it once was) is now in perpetual decline. He isn't that great of an actor, his shallow personality matches his beliefs, and his ridiculous comb-over gives him an equally ridiculous appearance. Basically he now almost looks like Marty Feldman but is unintentionally a joke.

Unless you don't know much about how far --back-- the casting of British actors goes in Hollywood you likely don't get how barren the arts would be without Brits to answer the roles call. You don't have to like what they say it isn't important anyway.
British actors know American producers place them in high regard and they will usually work for less which is likely a consideration.
Laurie is good. He's been working more in UK as of late.
