While it’s great to vote and encourage voting, demanding every 20 something popstar divulge who they’re voting for so you can decide whether or not you support them anymore is one step closer to Idiocracy territory.
On the other hand, I very much appreciate knowing which celebrities support an administration that poses a threat to my family. I will not vote for someone based on a celebrity endorsement, but the celebrity may gain or lose my business over it.
I really liked Kid Rock in his early days. The music was catchy, and it had the right mix of redneck, rock, and rap to make this country boy happy. Now I won’t listen to him because he chose to openly throw in with politicians who do not care if their policies and rhetoric kill my friends or kids.
You may not be interested in what any “celebrity” chooses politically, but there are huge groups of (stupid) people who let the people they like/follow dictate their choices.
As much as the Idiocracy of this is apparent, I don’t mind because it may get more people actually involved.

Politics is now team sports. They just want you on “their team”.
Politics is a combination of indoctrination and team sport. If not for indoctrination, the conservative team would have very few players.
