On his podcast earlier this week, Adam Carolla shared a list of “15 Celebrities Whose Politics Have Made Them Unpopular“ created by the fashion website StyleBlazer, of which Carolla was second on the list. Carolla ran down some of the names — Dennis Miller, Chuck Norris, Clint Eastwood — and pointed out what nearly all of them have in common: They’re associated with having libertarian and/or conservative views.

Twelve of the 15 names have been tied to conservatism at some point, which supposedly makes them unpopular with the American public by the website’s standards. Yet, these celebrities are as popular as they’ve ever been, if not more. Carolla, for instance, is not only a podcast powerhouse (he has the Guinness World Record for most-downloaded podcast, with millions of listeners weekly), but he also has a dedicated following who go to his stand-up shows, put his books on New York Times bestseller lists, and buy his delicious new alcoholic concoction, Mangria.

Let’s run down some of these other supposedly “unpopular” celebrities:

Dennis Miller: The former Weekend Update anchor has seen his career continue to rise since leaving Saturday Night Live, when some of his fellow cast members haven’t had much luck. He has a top-ten radio show — which is higher than or equal to any liberal radio show — and has teamed up with Bill O’Reilly for the Bolder and Fresher Tour, which sells out across the country.

Chuck Norris, Charlton Heston, and John Wayne: We all know you don’t mess with any of these three icons: They’re immortalized icons in Hollywood and pop culture.

Clint Eastwood: We could group ”Dirty Harry” with the aforementioned trio of timeless actors, but Eastwood has been even more politically active than most celebrities and has yet to see his popularity wane. Most recently, he spoke at the 2012 Republican National Convention to an awed audience and “empty” chair, but Eastwood also held office as mayor of his hometown of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif. The actor-turned-director has continued to pack theaters, rake in millions at the box office, and win awards over the last decade with films such as Letters from Iwo Jima, Million Dollar Baby, and Mystic River.

Donald Trump: While a blowhard, Trump is still popular by the standard that he gets eyeballs for television networks and knows how to make a buck or two. Throughout the latest season of All-Star Celebrity Apprentice, the show’s audience number increased from week to week despite concerns that Trump’s outspokenness in 2012 would hurt the show. Along with being a real-estate and golf-course mogul, he’s also a best-selling author and has a long line of other Trump-brand products. He may be obnoxious to some, but he’s popular enough with many.

Kirk Cameron: StyleBlazer seems to take more issue with Cameron’s religious beliefs than with his political stances (perhaps to them, what’s the difference?), but Cameron has continued acting since starring as the “bad boy” on Growing Pains. A vocal Evangelical, he starred in Fireproof in 2008, a Christian-themed movie about a firefighter. According to the Wall Street Journal, it drew a large enough audience to be the year’s highest-grossing independent film.

Patricia Heaton: Heaton has been a longtime conservative voice in Hollywood, especially on pro-life issues. An Ohio native, she campaigned for Mitt Romney in the crucial swing state last year. After a successful, near-decade-long, award-winning run as Debora on Everybody Loves Raymond, she has continued to star on primetime network sitcoms, including currently on ABC’s The Middle, which is the highest-rated in its timeslot and third-highest overall on Wednesday nights.

The list includes other proclaimed conservatives such as Stacey Dash and Victoria Jackson, who weren’t very popular to begin with, so to say their politics “made them unpopular” is a bit of a stretch.

In fact, the only celebrities on the list who aren’t associated with conservatism​ are Oliver Stone, Jenny McCarthy, and the Dixie Chicks, who have arguably all seen their stars fade because of their political overtness. Stone is verging on M. Night Shyamalan territory with his series of left-wing films, McCarthy is a played-out Playboy cover-girl with little relevance, and country fans soured on the Dixie Chicks after their criticism of George W. Bush. With these few exceptions, what’s amusing is that it doesn’t seem to strike the authors that a celebrity could alienate conservative audiences with their liberal views; in an indirect way, they’re effectively saying conservatives are more tolerant of liberal celebrities than liberals are of conservatives ones.

Although she didn’t actually say it, Pauline Kael’s infamous “I don’t know anyone who voted for Nixon, so how could he win?” line seems applicable to the authors of the StyleBlazer list: They must not know anyone who likes these celebrities, so how could anyone else? Turns out there are a lot of people they don’t know.
