In the world of glitz and glamour, political opinions can be as diverse as the celebrities themselves. However, one figure who has sparked a significant amount of controversy is Donald Trump. Some celebrities have been vocal about disliking the former U.S. President. Who are they? Let’s look at 11 celebrities who hate Donald Trump with a passion.
Muhammad Ali
The legendary boxer Muhammad Ali was a vocal critic of Donald Trump. He was particularly outspoken about how Trump exploited social issues, such as Islam, for his agenda. In an interview, Ali stated, “Muslims have to stand up to those who use Islam to advance their agenda.”
Pharrell Williams
The “Happy” singer, Pharrell Williams, was far from happy with Donald Trump. He even threatened legal action against the former president for using his song at rallies that Pharrell deemed inappropriate. This was especially evident after Trump’s rally following the Pittsburgh Synagogue shooting.
Phil Collins
The renowned musician Phil Collins is among the many celebrities who dislike Donald Trump. He demanded that Trump stop using his song “In The Air Tonight” at rallies and even sent a cease and desist order. Collins holds no love for the former president.
Neil Young
Neil Young, the famous rocker, expressed his displeasure when Trump used his song “Rockin’ in the Free World” at rallies. Although he didn’t pursue legal action, Young wrote a letter to Trump, urging him to consider the implications of using his music at political events.
Robert Downey Jr.
Few have expressed their disdain for Donald Trump as candidly as Robert Downey Jr. The actor once referred to the former president as an “orange Muppet Hitler,” believing that Trump’s actions oppressed personal freedoms in his quest to make America great again.
Drake
During his Boy Meets World Tour in London in January 2017, Drake openly shared his opinion of Trump. He asserted, “If you think one man can tear this world apart, you’re out of your motherf–king mind. It’s on us to keep this s— together. F–- that man.” This positioned Drake among the celebrities who hate Donald Trump.
Stephen Curry
Not limited to actors and singers, the list of celebrities who dislike Donald Trump also includes professional sports players. Stephen Curry was asked if he saw Trump as an asset to the United States. In response, Curry wittily remarked, “I agree with that description if you remove the ‘et’ from ‘asset.'”
Shakira
Shakira, the international music sensation, was vocal about her opposition to Donald Trump’s stance on Mexican immigrants. She tweeted, “No one living in this century should stand behind so much ignorance.” Shakira’s South/Latin American descent likely influenced her strong views against Trump’s policies on immigration.
Chrissy Teigen
“I’ve actually been a big Donald Trump hater (for a long time). I’ve been trolling him for about five to seven years now. I’ve been doing this forever, and I take pride in that. I can’t believe that somebody could actually do this all day every day and be president. If I mysteriously go missing in the next four years, that is what happened.” —USA Today
Stephen Hawking
Stephen Hawking, revered for his brilliance, also couldn’t stand Donald Trump. He referred to Trump as a “demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator.” Hawking made these remarks during Trump’s presidential campaign in May 2016.
Adele
As a British singer, Adele couldn’t vote in the US elections, but she didn’t shy away from expressing her opposition to Donald Trump using her songs for political rallies in 2016. Her strong voice against Trump made her one of the celebrities who dislike him.
