Apparently, it’s considered extremely uncool to be down with the Bushies in Hollywood, so most of the Red Brigade (as in Republican red) keep their (voter registration) cards close to the chest. Details magazine lists the reputed revelers at the Grand Old Party — all right, that’s tortured syntax, but you get the idea. Among the names named are Adam Sandler, who could be considered W’s “Waterboy”; Shannen Doherty, a former Beverly Hill resident who “Charmed” her way in; Jessica Simpson, who’d be welcome at the convention despite her admittedly “stinky a**”; and Freddie Prinze Jr., whose late father is no doubt doing somersaults in his grave.
The most amusing reaction to Details’ “W”-hispers so far has come singer/actress Mandy Moore. Apparently, the girlfriend of tennis phenom Andy Roddick would rather be accused of skinning kittens alive than of voting for the sitting president.
Moore’s publicist issued an amusingly worded denial to the New York Post. “Mandy is not, nor has she ever been, a Republican,” she sniffed.
