Pharrell Williams is making it known that he doesn’t want his name associated with any political party.
During a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the artist and Men’s Creative Director at Louis Vuitton revealed that he “gets annoyed” by the political playing field today.
Williams, 51, touted himself to the publication as “much more of a federal employee. I believe in merited civil service.“
“I’m more of a humanitarian,” he added. “I like people trying to help people. Not sure I’ll ever vote far right. I won’t do that.”
Though Williams made it clear in that chat: “I don’t do Politics,” he further doubled down on his disdain of Celebrity involvement in Politics by stating: “In fact, I get annoyed sometimes when I see celebrities trying to tell you [who to vote for]. There are celebrities that I respect that have an opinion, but not all of them.”
The artist did not elaborate on whose opinions he felt as though are valid.
“I’m one of them people [who says], ‘What the heck? Shut up. Nobody asked you,’ ” he said of his stance towards political leanings being shared publicly by celebrities. “When people get out there and get self-righteous and they roll up their sleeves and s—, and they are out there walking around with a placard: ‘Shut up!’ So, no, I would rather stay out of the way, and obviously, I’m going to vote how I’m going to vote. I care about my people and I care about the country, but I feel there’s a lot of work that needs to be done, and I’m really about the action.”
Numerous musicians, including Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish and Finneas, and John Legend have publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2025 presidential election, while Jason Aldean, Nicky Jam and Billy Ray Cyrus have endorsed former President Donald Trump and JD Vance.
