Kirstie Alley calls out 'psycho' Hollywood politics on 'Tucker Carlson Today'

. >> Tucker: WE DON'T TALK TO A LOT OF ACTORS. MOST OF THEM HATE US AND WOULD NEVER COME ON. EVEN THOSE THAT COME ON ARE NOT THAT INTERESTED WHEN YOU TALK TO THEM. THEY DON'T HAVE A LOT TO SAY IF THEY DON'T HAVE A SCRIPT. KIRSTIE ALLEY IS NOT THAT PERSON AT ALL. WHEN SHE HAS NO SCRIPT IN FRONT OF HER, SHE HAS A LOT TO SAY. MORE THAN WE IMAGINED. IT WAS AN AMAZING CONVERSATION. WENT ON FOR AN HOUR ON TUCKER CARLSON. HERE'S PART OF IT. >> FOUR YEARS AGO, I WAS ON A SAD AND -- I SPOKE UP. I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS A BIG DEAL. I VOTE FOR TRUMP. PRODUCERS SAID I AM, TOO. IF ANYBODY HEARS ME SAY THAT, I WILL NEVER WORK AGAIN. I WAS LIKE WHAT? IT WAS IGNORANCE. >> Tucker: DID YOU TAKE IT SERIOUSLY WHEN THEY SAID THAT? >> THAT THEY WOULD BE FIRED? I KNEW THEY WOULD BE. >> Tucker: WOW. >> WHEN THEY FIRST SAID IT, I THOUGHT RIGHT. WHO CARES? >> Tucker: RIGHT. >> IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS, I'VE SEEN WHO CARES? PEOPLE THOUGHT YOU WERE SO BRAVE. I SAID I THOUGHT I'M STUPID. IT IS A REAL SITUATION. IT'S A REAL -- IT'S A REAL BLACKBALLING SITUATION AND IT'S SO STRANGE TO ME. ARTISTS ARE FREE THINKERS FOR THE MOST PART. >> Tucker: YES. >> THEY ALL THINK DIFFERENTLY. MY WHOLE CAREER, WHEN I DID CHEERS, EVERYBODY WAS DIFFERENT. THEY HAD DIFFERENT POLITICAL VIEWS, DIFFERENT -- THAT'S WHAT MADE EVERYBODY INTERESTING. SO THIS WHOLE THING IS JUST PSYCHO TO ME. I DON'T -- >> Tucker: SO IT WASN'T THAT WAY. PEOPLE WERE LIBERAL OR GAVE TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY BUT THERE WAS A FREEDOM OF THOUGHT AND EXPRESSION THAT ALLOWS ARTISTS TO CREATE. >> LIKE ON "CHEERS." ONE OF THE CAST MEMBERS THAT WAS GOING TO VOTE REPUBLICAN. I REMEMBER US GOING LIKE YOU'RE CRAZY. OF COURSE HE IS. BUT IT WAS LIKE WHO CARES? >> Tucker: DID YOU TRY TO KICK THEM OFF THE SHOW? >> NO, WE DIDN'T TRY TO GET THEM FIRED. WE WEREN'T ANY OF THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. MOST OF MY CAREER, GUYS DOING BLOW AND GUYS DOING REHAB AND THEY'RE NOT KICKED OFF. WOMEN TEND TO GET KICKED OFF MORE IF THEY'RE THING DRUGS AND WITH PROSTITUTES. YOU KNOW, MEN GET 12 CHANCES. THAT'S THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY ABOUT SHOW BUSINESS. WOMEN MAY GET ONE CHANCE AND MEN GET 12 OR 15. >> Tucker: IT'S AN INTERESTING POINT. I'LL TOLERANT OF CERTAIN PEOPLE'S DEVIATION FROM THE NORMS DRUG PROBLEMS OR SLEEPING WITH THE WRONG PEOPLE. >> NO, YOU CAN BE COOKING METH AND SLEEPING WITH HOOKERS. APPARENTLY IF YOU DIDN'T VOTE FOR TRUMP. SO IT'S -- I FEEL LIKE ANYMORE THE TWILIGHT ZONE WITH THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF IT. BECAUSE I -- YOU KNOW, AN EXAMPLE IS ON TWITTER. I HAD MANY CELEBRITIES FOLLOW ME. NOW I THINK LIKE THREE FOLLOW ME. >> Tucker: THEY TOOK YOU OFF THE LIST? THEY UNFOLLOWED YOU? >> YEAH. I'M THE SAME PERSON. I'M THE GIRL THAT VOTED FOR OBAMA TWICE. >> Tucker: RIGHT. >> YOU LIKED ME WHEN I VOTED FOR OBAMA AND NOW YOU'RE THIS? MAY ME HAVE TO RETHINK WEIRDLY MY WHOLE FRIENDSHIPS. I JUST STARTED WATCHING CERTAIN THINGS IN THE WORLD. LIKE I WANTED -- SIMPLE THINGS. I'M NOT A ROCKET SCIENTIST. I WAS LIKE I WANT PEOPLE TO HAVE JOBS. I WANT PEOPLE TO HAVE, YOU KNOW -- I LIKE GAS TO COST LESS MONEY. I LIKE PEOPLE TO HAVE GOOD SCHOOLS AND JUST REALLY COMMON SENSE KIND OF THINGS. SO WHEN I WAS LISTENING TO TRUMP SAY WHAT HE WAS GOING TO DO, I THOUGHT WELL, YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT WHAT I THINK WE SHOULD DO. HE'S NOT LIKE MR. DRUG DRUGS, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? HE'S NOT MR. PHARMACEUTICAL. AND I HAVE MY OWN VIEWS ON WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR COUNTRY. HOW MANY ARTISTS WE'VE LOST TO FENTANYL AND OTHER DRUGS AND [BLEEP] SITTING IN FRONT OF OUR FACES. SO I FELT LIKE I LIKE TO GIVE THIS GUY A CHANCE. >> Tucker: SO HIS FIRMNESS ON DRUGS, DRUGS KILL PEOPLE, OBVIOUSLY HURTING THE COUNTRY. HE SAID THAT OUT LOUD. >> HE SAID THAT -- LIKE WHY IS EVERYBODY DOING DRUGS NOW? WHY IS EVERYBODY ON PHARMACEUTICALS? >> Tucker: SUCH A GREAT QUESTION. >> WHY ARE WE ALL SUDDENLY MENTALLY ILL? WE AREN'T. IF WE -- IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T AGREE THAT EVERYTHING -- HE MAY SAY THIS OR HE MAY NOT. I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T WANT WORDS IN HIS MOUTH. BUT IT'S NOT LIKE DEPRESSION DOESN'T EXIST. IT'S NOT LIKE POSTPARTUM DOESN'T EXIST. IT'S NOT LIKE ANXIETY DOESN'T EXIST. IT'S WHAT DO YOU DO ABOUT IT. >> Tucker: THAT'S RIGHT. >> SO IN MY UNIVERSE, IT'S WHAT DO YOU DO ABOUT IT. MY -- I SAID SOMETHING ON TWITTER OTHER DAY. STOP DRUGGING EVERYBODY. OH, ARE YOU A DOCTOR? DO I HAVE TO BE -- I WANT TO CUSS RIGHT NOW. >> Tucker: GO AHEAD! >> DO I HAVE TO BE A EFFING DOCTOR TO NOT WANT TO TAKE A MILLION PHARMACEUTICALS? HOW ABOUT IF I'M DEPRESSED AND I FIND OUT WHY? DO I HAVE TO HAVE A DISEASE? >> Tucker: FIND OUT WHY? >> YEAH. IF I'M ANXIOUS, WHY? IT'S LIKE WHEN I DID COKE, I WAS ANXIOUS ALL THE TIME. DUH! I WAS DRUGGING MYSELF TO DEATH. >> Tucker: AS ARE MANY. APPARENTLY FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP WATCHED THE ENTIRE HOUR. WE THINK IT WORTH IT.

Me and the guys at work always talk about how celebrities and athletes keep poking their nose in shit they dont understand. Shut up with the politics and do your fucking jobs.
