Bill O’Reilly Sean Penn Boycott
Bill O’Reilly has seen Fast Times at Ridgemont High for the last time.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the Emmy-winning conservative pundit reveals that he is boycotting Penn and his catalogue of films because he disagrees with the Oscar-winning actor’s political views.
Over the years, Sean Penn has enraged many with his politics by visiting Iran and Venezuela, as welll as for his frequent criticism of the Iraq War and former president George W. Bush. O’Reilly is the first politico chatterbox so disillusioned with Penn that he has vowed not to watch any of his films.
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: ARE THERE ACTORS WHOSE POLITICAL OPINIONS DISTURB YOU SO MUCH YOU WON’T SEE THEIR MOVIES?
O’Reilly: Just Sean Penn
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: SOMEONE WILL READ THAT AND ACCUSE YOU OF ENCOURAGING A NEW BLACKLIST ERA.
O’Reilly: Not at all. He’s a great actor, and if you hire him, you’ll get a good performance. I’m just not going to give a guy who gives aid and comfort to people like (Iran president Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad, Hugo Chavez and Saddam Hussein, when he was alive, my 10 bucks. That’s my right as an American.
Is there a celebrity you boycott because of their beliefs?
