Veteran actor Kurt Russell, who has featured in a number of films including Death Proof, The Hateful Eight, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, feels celebrities should stick to being entertainers, and refrain from being vocal about other issues.
Russell opened up about the same in a joint interview with Goldie Hawn in The New York Times.
As reported by People, Kurt Russell said, “I’ve always been someone who felt we are court jesters. That’s what we do,” adding, “As far as I’m concerned, you should step away from saying anything so that you can still be seen by the audience in any character.” The veteran actor added, “There is no reason entertainers can’t learn just as much as anybody else about a subject, whatever it is. But I think that what’s sad about it is that they lose their status as a court jester. And I’m a court jester. That’s what I was born to do.”
