Stallone became a member of the Trump Club in Florida: who else of the rich and famous are in it
Hollywood actor Sylvester Stallone became a member of the Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Florida, owned (and frequently visited) by the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump. In the club, the actor saw an unnamed source who reported this to the press, writes Yahoo.
The source said that Stallone was spotted at the club taking pictures with other members and confirmed that "Sligh has just become a member of the Mar-a-Lago Club," which includes an impressive $ 200 entry fee (Stallone representatives have not yet commented on this information). In addition, club members pay $ 000 in annual fees annually.
After Stallone backed the late Senator John McCain in 2008, many speculated that he was a Republican, but the actor has denied this on multiple occasions since then. In 2016, he told reporters: “I love Donald Trump as a great Dickensian character,” and in 2019 he assured that he did not vote for Trump in 2016 and will not vote for him in 2020.
«Я ни за кого не голосовал, — сказал он. — Я хочу, чтобы победил лучший человек… Я не пойду на сбор средств, я ничего не делаю. Я просто старый кинорежиссер».
Хотя у Сталлоне явно есть поклонники среди последователей Трампа (отсюда и позирование для фотографий и твиты, защищающие его решение присоединиться к Мар-а-Лаго), он признал в интервью 2019 года, что более 90% Голливудской киноиндустрии — бизнеса, который сделал его звездой — имеет тенденцию голосовать за демократов и не очень любит Трампа.
Back then, Stallone's purchase of a $ 35 million Palm Beach home a stone's throw from the club was likely a convenience rather than a political decision.
