Mandy Moore Fumes at Being Declared Republican

Singer and actress Mandy Moore is furious at being "outed" as a secret Republican in the new issue of America's Details magazine.

The publication's upcoming September edition lists Adam Sandler, Freddie Prinze Jr., Jessica Simpson, Shannen Doherty and Moore as silent supporters of current US President George W. Bush who don't join the campaign trail and make their political views known...

However, the A Walk To Remember beauty has angrily denied she supports Bush and his party. Her publicist tells American website Pagesix.Com, "Mandy is not, nor has she ever been, a Republican."

4. Some real winners in that list...
No wonder she doesn't want to be associated with it.

5. I'm interested in the Dirt on Sandler
He doesn't comeoff as a 'Puke to me.

I know a lot of people on these boards don't like his films as they are sophomoric and silly, but just because your movies appeal to frat boys doesn't make you bad person.

6. but if you combine his bad movies with gop-loyalty, then...
...it's entirely possible that Sandler IS a big poop.

7. I just find them silly fun
good movies for when you just want to laugh at gags and don't want anything deep.

But yeah, if these allegations bear out, I'll have lost any respect I had for the man.

8. Shocking. Fellow NYU Alumni too...
A Jewish New Yorker with a Fine Arts Degree of all things . I just find it so hard to believe he's behind that idiotic dunce of a fake president.

11. see what I mean?
So much disdain for the man on these boards. I at least want to hear the evidence against him. I mean just because someone plays an idiot on screen doesn't mean you should judge him as such... maybe his sense of humor.

For example how many idiotic sketches (probably some involving Sandler) has Al Franken written in his career at SNL? And yet we all love him.

12. Shannen Doherty
Will pretty much stop people on the street and tell them. I don't thinks she's particularly secretive about it.

Prinze minor and his obnoxious wife are both Republicans.

13. Hmmm....
In a way you are right.

But I just can't stand Sandler's antics on screen. And that's the only way I know him, you know? Through the screen and the characters he portrays.

I do know he's a good actor. And so you gotta wonder why he just sticks to inane "comedies", you know?

And now that he's in the Bush camp, you can't blame me for my reinforced conviction that he probably is dumb in real life too.

15. Sandler plays idiotic characters idiotically...
that's the difference between someone like Franken who plays idiotic characters well. Sandler is a big stinking pile of poo with zero talent.

16. Considering who's on that list...
you could probably add Pauly Shore and Carrot Top - or the entire cast of the Hollywood Squares.

Seems one of the prerequisites of a Republican Celebrity is being a has-been.

19. Well, I'm glad if a mistake was made, Moore's the one
I like some of her music, and she's also grown into her looks a little more lately.

21. "... is not, nor has she ever been, a republican."
Edited on Tue Aug-24-04 10:26 AM by LastKnight
dont ya like it when people take that as an accusation that needs a denouncement like that? i dont know or care if she is or not. but i get a kick that it recieves such a denial like somone accused her of being a communist in the whole McCarthyism thing.
