I also enjoy jazz, and even the big band music from before that era.

I somewhat understand what you mean.  There are some celebs whose work I
like despite their political bent.  The ones that stomp their feet before
every election and threaten their fans with leaving the country or retiring if
(Republican) gets elected, and who never follow through on such promises,
they are in a different boat.  Thing is, I am not sure that there have been
many celebs that I liked beforehand who have turned around and done that.
Most of them are ones whose work I did not like to begin with.  I actually
cannot name one offhand that I did like.

Others liked them, though, and I am sure that some of them are small minded
enough that the threat was a concern to them.  However, I also would find
it easy to believe that most of those folks were not going to vote for the
Republican in question anyway.

While there are some celebs that are committed to their beliefs no matter
what anyone else thinks, most of them are bandwagoners who share their
"beliefs" publically to be part of what they think of as the "in crowd."
