Actors and other entertainment industry personnel have been talking about issues unrelated to their profession for years now, with the last five years being so much to where Ricky Gervais just had to say something at the Golden Globes this year in their opening monologue. You will find very few of those in the entire industry who don't talk issues beyond their line of work. For the record, Ricky Gerais himself has talked about and promoted issues unrelated to his work as well. He’s been a big advocate for animals rights, and he has supported the Labour Party. Yes, and I never said he hasn't spoken about issues unrelated to his work, I was pointing out that those in the arts and entertainment industry have become more vocal about issues beyond their craft that it has become more of an annoyance for the average consumer than music to the ears, hence the closing lines of his monologue.

Actors have been doing that stuff since the classic days of cinema, though. Even Orson Welles did it. I think it just seems more apparent now because the Internet and social media causes this stuff to spread around faster.
