Pharrell Williams isn’t a fan of celebrities being vocal about their political beliefs, although it seems like he’s contradicting his own actions. The 51-year-old musician, who formerly participated in the “Vote or Die” campaign in 2004, seemingly changed his tune in an interview with THR. “I don’t do politics. In fact, I get annoyed sometimes when I see celebrities trying to tell you [who to vote for],” he told the outlet. Keep reading to find out more… “There are celebrities that I respect that have an opinion, but not all of them. I’m one of them people [who says], ‘What the heck? Shut up. Nobody asked you.’” “When people get out there and get self-righteous and they roll up their sleeves and s–t, and they are out there walking around with a placard: ‘Shut up!’” he went on. He avoided disclosing who he’s voting for, though he said with a laugh: “Not sure I’ll ever vote far right.” “I care about my people and I care about the country, but I feel there’s a lot of work that needs to be done, and I’m really about the action,” he added. Afterward, fans not only resurfaced his old Vote or Die campaign, as well as a tweet from his account endorsing former NFL player Aaron Rouse for Virginia State Senator in a special election in 2022. One recent celebrity endorsement in the 2024 election has been making headlines because of one candidate’s reaction on social media.
