The Stranger Things actor criticizes President Bolsonaro and points to the president as a villain
Jamie Campbell, who plays Vecna on Stranger Things, has joined the list of celebrities who have spoken about the political situation in Brazil over the years. In an interview, the actor claimed that he likes to play villains and understand the characters thoroughly, but he pointed out that he wasn’t talking about villains like Bolsonaro.
In the chat with the Vulture portal, Jamie went straight to sue the president. “With Vecna, what he’s been through has led to him being the person he is. This is my relationship with Vecna, I’m not talking about Bolsonaro’s bitch, which is a complete asshole,” he said.
In 2019 Leonardo DiCaprio also criticized the Bolsonaro government on social media for the fires that were taking place in the Amazon. In July of this year (2022), the actor again attracted the president’s attention in a post about deforestation in the forest. “Leo again? So you will become my best electoral corporal,” Bolsonaro wrote.
Before the current government, the U2 band positioned itself during its passage in the country in 2017. At the Morumbi stadium, Bono Vox spoke about prejudice and the importance of guaranteeing the rights of all people in the country. Additionally, the band’s drummer Larry Mullen Jr. wore a “Censorship Never Again” shirt in reference to the attacks on freedom of expression and culture. Check out the full list of gringo artists who talked about Brazilian politics in the video above!
