Though Destiny's Child played at W's 2nd inauguration, IIRC.

Apropos Beyoncé and Bush: I found an interview with Destiny's Child, published in Germany's biggest news magazine, Der Spiegel; it was conducted in April 2001:


SPIEGEL: Why did you perform at George W. Bush's inaugural party in January? Because you're from Texas? Or because you sympathize with the GOP's views?

Knowles: We don't talk about politics.

Rowland: But we could tell that he was very cool. Much different than on TV - handsomer. He has a tight handshake and he smelled good, a bit of detergent.

Williams: He said we exercised great influence over the youth. Then he danced onstage with Ricky Martin.

SPIEGEL: You don't say! [...]

There's an inverse correlation between being a creative person and being Republican.

most musicians try not to disclose their political beliefs (if any). Doing so risks losing a lot of your fanbase.

I think this list is pretty terrible, but NWA Eazy-E supported H.W. Bush. Would be even more ironic if they played  the police at that Republican fundraiser.

I'm just doing this off the cuff so correct me if I'm wrong.  I think what actually happened was he donated to a nonpartisan charity and then got on some mailing list for rich people and was invited to a dinner that H.W. Bush attended.  That was the story I heard.  Correct me if I'm wrong.  I don't have VH1.

I remember PETA one year declared Carrie Underwood to be the "sexiest vegetarian" or something like that, so I'd be quite surprised if she's a Republican.

But as for the poll I really can not care.
Seventh day Adventists are heavily republican, so I wouldn't say its that unusual to be republican and vegetarian. of Course Carrie Underwood isn't Adventist, but personal food choices hardly make ones politics.
Oddly, I know two Jehovah's witnesses quite well and both are Democrats.  But one is more "generic, but faithful Christian" and the other is "ooooh... this looks cool.  Now I can make my husband do all the work on holidays!"  So take from that what you will.

Most Jehova's Witnesses who actually vote are Democrats. But this is not surprising considering that their church prohibits them from voting, thus anyone who does is clearly not very dedicated to it and a clear "Cafeteria Jehova's Witness", and probably more like the "generic but faithful Christian" type you mention than an actual Jehova's Witness.

I actually knew a guy who ran a hardcore record distro who was a Jehova's Witness (well raised that way but obviously no longer practicing), I think he still sort of identified as Christian. His wife (very hot by the way) was a pretty vocal Christian, but of the "Decorate my MySpace (this was circa 2006) in Bible verses while I'm out getting drunk at shows and moshing!" type.

That's true but his publicist was on record as saying he supported him because of Gulf War 1.

I don't think you can judge either way, without them being too public about it or viewing their donations to political figures. Many actors and most athletes (and coaches) are also usually secretive about politics, too. Directors... not as much.

Garth Brooks is a Democrat. Toby Keith is a Republican-Voting Dixiecrat who favors Gay Marriage stating "banning gay marriage will accomplish nothing but a waste of time and money".

I read somewhere that Britney Spears was planning to attend the 2004 GOP Convention but was then asked not to. She does support gay marriage though.
