- Singer Linda Ronstadt appears to have a "don't ask,
don't tell" policy toward Republicans and Christians who might be
in her audiences - she'd rather not know they are there.
-
- In a recent interview with the San Diego Union-Tribune,
the entertainer said:
-
- "This is an election year, and I think we're in
desperate trouble and it's time for people to speak up and not pipe down.
It's a real conflict for me when I go to a concert and find out somebody
in the audience is a Republican or fundamental Christian. It can cloud
my enjoyment. I'd rather not know."
-
- Ronstadt says she routinely dedicates a song in her concerts
to leftist filmmaker Michael Moore, director of the anti-Bush movie "Fahrenheit
9/11." As WorldNetDaily reported, hundreds of fans at an Aladdin Hotel
Las Vegas show over the weekend stormed out after she made a tribute to
Moore. The incident, in which she also made disparaging remarks about the
hotel and Las Vegas, caused her to be banned from the facility.
-
- The singer, 58, sees Moore as a patriot.
-
- "I've been dedicating a song to him - I think he's
a great patriot - and it splits the audience down the middle, and they
duke it out," she told the San Diego paper.
