Opera singers are amazingly ignorant of politics - their job being so very difficult and time consuming. But whenever they poke their heads up, they are overwhelmingly liberal.

Well said.

I used to teach acting to opera students. They are the nicest people in show business but their training is as hard as ballet and so they have little time to consume news. This is generally a good thing because you can have a conversation with them without throwing up. Try that with actors.
