Jamie Kennedy isn’t afraid to stir the pot, especially when it comes to anti-ICE celebrities he sees as hypocritical. In a recent episode of Jack Osbourne’s podcast, Kennedy shared his thoughts on the irony of A-listers condemning authority while clutching their champagne flutes on red carpets. He questioned their commitment to the causes, asking if they’d be more credible if they took a stand outside the luxury of a film festival instead of just voicing opinions from cushy seats.

Kennedy pointedly critiqued the A-listers at Sundance for their lack of real activism, suggesting that if they truly believed in the movements they support, they’d be better off putting their money where their mouths are. One unnamed actor really caught his ire, leading to a blunt warning to “shut the f*** up!” It’s a bold take, reflecting a growing frustration with celebrity culture that seems more performative than genuine. In a world where celebrity influence holds power, Kennedy’s comments remind us that actions often speak louder than words. Will other celebrities take note, or will they keep sipping their cocktails?
