Zach Galifianakis Slams Democrats For Filling DNC With Celebrities Instead Of Average Americans
Actor Zach Galifianakis slammed the Democrats for filling the DNC with celebrities instead of focusing on ordinary Americans. The four-day event at the United Center in Chicago was attended by the likes of Kerry Washington, Tony Goldwyn, Eva Longoria, Ben Stiller, Octavia Spencer, Uzo Aduba, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Oprah and Mindy Kaling. Musicians including John Legend, Patti LaBelle, Stevie Wonder, Pink, The Chicks, Mickey Guyton, Jason Isbell and Lil Jon also put on performances - while rumors of a Beyonce cameo which never materialized sent fans into a frenzy. “As a small-town guy from North Carolina … I do wish the DNC would step back from the celebrities a little bit,” Galifianakis told Variety. “It works to a point, but they have to win over rural America. Hollywood thinks it's so important and that's a problem. Actors are people too, and they're citizens too, but I'm more on the small-town side of that than I am on the Hollywood side of that. That's just me.”
