Jenny McCarthy is dropping bombshells about Hollywood's hush-hush support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The actress, known for her outspoken views, recently shared juicy details on the Culture Apothecary podcast with Alex Clark. According to McCarthy, the glitzy world of celebrities is more in tune with RFK Jr.'s aspirations than you'd think.
On the podcast, McCarthy claimed, "I've been marching with Bobby since Evan was 2 years old," referring to her now 23-year-old son, Evan. She revealed that numerous celebrities have reached out to her, seeking advice while keeping their own support under wraps. "I don't want to come out. I don't want people to know I have a child on the spectrum. I don't want people to know my f------- schedule. Can you help me?" McCarthy recounted some stars saying.
“Who in their right mind, after everything that I've kind of [been through] would be like, 'You know, I want to be that next person that gets bullied for so many years,'” McCarthy reflected.
Jenny McCarthy's ties with RFK Jr. run deep. She and her husband, Donnie Wahlberg, threw their weight behind Kennedy during his 2024 presidential bid. Despite Kennedy's controversial views, including unfounded claims about autism, McCarthy stands by her friend. In a heartfelt Instagram video, she enthusiastically cheered, "Go Bobby!" as she and Wahlberg endorsed him.
Even after Kennedy's withdrawal from the race and his subsequent endorsement of Donald Trump, McCarthy remains a staunch supporter. Kennedy, now the secretary of health and human services, continues to stir controversy with his statements about autism, including a debunked claim that early circumcision leads to higher autism rates.
The Masked Singer judge highlighted the fear that grips Hollywood's conservative voices, citing her own experiences with backlash over her vaccine views. "There's more conservatives than you would know hiding out in Hollywood," she revealed, suggesting a silent majority that prefers to stay in the shadows.
McCarthy's commentary shines a light on the complex dynamics within the entertainment industry, where public personas often mask private beliefs. Her insights call into question the assumed liberal dominance of Hollywood and hint at a more nuanced landscape behind the scenes.
