Anti-Trump Hollywood Fundraiser Starved for Stars

The Hollywood Reporter frets the Tinsel Town Resistance won’t get a sequel.

Sunday’s Golden Globes telecast didn’t trash President-Elect Donald Trump. Now, an event designed to rally Hollywood’s best and brightest will go on with very few names the average American will recognize.

Cruel? Maybe. Accurate? Yes.

The Concert for America, a fundraising gala uniting progressive nonprofits, will kick off Jan. 20, AKA Inauguration Day for President-Elect Trump.

Some of the same suspects gathered in 2017 to similarly protest Trump’s D.C. arrival. (even if they didn’t frame it that way). Back then, the gathering attracted some names many know well.

Think Betty Buckley, Bebe Neuwirth, Billy Porter, Ben Vereen, Rosie Perez, Caroline Rhea, Richard Kind and more. The event raised cash for groups like the NAACP, Planned Parenthood, Southern Poverty Law Center, National Immigration Law Center and the Sierra Club Foundation.

Trump is back in the White House later this month, and we’ll have a new Concert for America to once again line the coffers of left-leaning groups. It’s another chance for The Resistance sequel many expected after Trump’s Nov. 5 victory.

Except this time the list of stars is filled with, “Who’s that?” Deadline.com reports on the talents on board to support similar causes.

Ali Stroker, Anika Larsen, Ann Harada, Arielle Jacobs, Brenda Braxton, Bryce Pinkham, Charlotte d’Amboise, Hennessy Winkler, Jessica Vosk, Judy Gold, Judy Kuhn, Julie Benko, Keala Settle, Kelli O’Hara, Lili Thomas, Lilli Cooper, Liz Callaway, Merle Dandridge, Nina West, Pearl Sun, Piper Perabo, Scarlett Strallen and Shayna Steele.

Perez is back for this year’s event, and Perabo is a slightly familiar face on the Hollywood activist circuit. The other name of consequence? Cecily Strong, a former “Saturday Night Live” player.

Broadway has been attracting major stars in recent years, including Rachel Zegler, Hugh Jackman Lin-Manuel Miranda, Rachel McAdams, Daniel Radcliffe and many more.

They didn’t want to be a face of the Trump 2.0 resistance, apparently.

The event frames itself as apolitical, but a quick look at the comments suggests otherwise.

[Co-producer Seth] Rudetsky: “We will be there not only on Inauguration Day with entertainment and calls to action, but over the next four years, too.“

Can’t utter Trump’s name, of course, in the grand Voldemort tradition.

The event’s political purpose isn’t hard to suss out. according to Deadline:

Representatives from each of these groups will participate in the program, sharing their stories and letting audiences know how they can help with easy calls-to-action to do on the day of the event and in the future.
