What happens when people who are as far as possible from this, for example, celebrities, interfere in politics? As a rule, this is chaos, a lot of problems and other moments, but this does not prevent us from imagining who from the Hollywood crowd could take the chair of the President of America in the next elections.

1. Leonardo DiCaprio

DiCaprio was born and raised in Los Angeles, having made an incredible journey to fame from the bottom to the top, using his charisma, charm and, of course, his talent. Many people say that Leonardo is just a handsome boy who, over time, got used to the image of a successful man. However, his actions suggest the opposite, because he provided political and financial support to those in need, participated in the Wildlife Conservation Society, and also cares about global warming and much more. As a rule, the image of a person like DiCaprio is associated with a man by many. who is used to meeting supermodels and living to the fullest, but this is the case when a person's interests extend beyond the luxury life, because he is a famous philanthropist.

2. Dwayne Johnson

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson himself once said that many people mistake him for just a mountain of muscles, a Hollywood handsome man who has no brains, but he is not going to condemn people for such an opinion. Nevertheless, he could easily get votes in the fight for presidential chair. As the greatest WWE star of all time as well as a famous Hollywood actor, he is much more than a bald jock on steroids chasing a pack of tough greens. Rock is incredibly rich, however, to achieve so many zeros in his account, and also of this level of recognition, you must at least have not only charisma, but also an outstanding mind, which Dwayne has in abundance. He also has a background in criminology, which could probably help him collect votes for the presidency.

3. Matt Damon

Matt Damon, the star of the Bourne franchise, has more than just a pretty face. He is known as a Harvard graduate in the late 80s and early 90s. He also wrote an excellent screenplay for Good Will Hunting, which also says a lot about him. Today Damon is a famous Hollywood tycoon who supports various foundations and leads the fight against disease around the world. With the help of his colleagues from Ocean's 11, he organized the Not On Our Watch Project as well as the H20 Africa Foundation, making him a very versatile person.

4. Kelsey Grammer

Grammer is one of the few people in the celebrity world who have supported the GOP and openly share its ideas. He will definitely have a big impact on the establishment if he continues to pursue his political views and ambitions. In addition to the fame he has gained in the entertainment industry, Kelsey is also a man who has suffered a terrible loss. In 1975, his sister was raped and killed by Freddie Lee Glenn. In addition, the producer of the sitcom Fraser, David Angell, who was a close friend of Grammer, died in the September 11 attack. the fact that Kelsey would never do something like that. In addition, he has his own weight in the Republican Party, which would also help him in the elections.

5. Michael Moore

Film director, screenwriter, author and journalist, Michael is a well-known leftist politician. He is well known for such films as "Bowling for Columbine" and "Fahrenheit 9/11", and they know that he is very interested in American politics. To put it more precisely, Moore disagrees with almost everything that happens. He even used the Oscar site to openly voice his dissatisfaction with the invasion of Iraq in 2003, fearing that the assembled audience had a different opinion. Many would agree that a political leader should have a tough enough stance on certain things. so, if Moore suddenly got to the White House, he could finally invest in something really worthwhile.

6. Alec Baldwin

In addition to being well known for his role as Jack Donaghey on NBC's Studio 30 sitcom, Baldwin is also well known for his outspoken remarks. He has repeatedly stated that he would like to hold the presidency. A devoted liberal, he has donated over $ 144,000 since 1989 to various liberal candidates and committees. Note that this is the amount that the average American could accumulate in about a few years. He also considered running for mayor of New York in 2013, but ultimately decided that acting would bring him more success. Now that the sitcom Studio 30 is over, the perfect moment may come for Baldwin to put on a suit and dust off his past political ambitions.

7. Tom Cruise

Tom, as an American actor and director, has been nominated for Oscars three times and has also won three Golden Globe Awards. He also dabbled in acting from an early age until he starred in the 1981 film "Mad Love", where he was noticed by Hollywood, after which he became the most famous and distinguished actor in the United States. In addition, it is worth noting that Tom Cruise is highly regarded in the Church of Scientology, and its head, David Miscavige, attended both of Tom's weddings as a witness on the days of his marriage to Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes. Being a famous Scientologist, Tom Cruise is probably one of the most influential people in the world. And such fame and power, as a rule, give rise to power, without which there is nowhere in politics. He has money, charm, good looks and an army of fans ready to support his endeavors. Once he even said that if Arnold Schwarzenegger could become a politician, then he could try his hand at the presidency.

8. Ben Affleck

Despite the fact that many movie fans don't like Ben, he is, however, quite popular in Hollywood. His career began when he landed an Oscar-winning role in Good Will Hunting, as well as films such as Armageddon and Shakespeare in Love. starred in Daredevil, but after starring in Operation Argo, which won a Golden Globe for director and an Oscar for Best Picture in 2013, he became quite popular again. It is therefore not surprising that many expect a political career from the former Batman. Affleck is an open Democrat as well as an activist who occasionally travels to Washington to perform on Capitol Hill. Even his wife, Jennifer Garner, noted that he can bring much more benefit to people precisely by being in politics.

9. Howard Stern

Frankly speaking, a good politician simply has to be an excellent orator, because in most cases politics is a verbal battle, and therefore, if a leader does not have the proper oratorical skills, then he will easily lose this battle long before it starts. Howard Stern, on the other hand, is perhaps the most successful speaker in the world and has directed the popular "The Howard Stern Show" for more than thirty years. Perhaps he would not be very surprised if Americans really decided to vote for him. In 1993, Stern ran as a Liberal in the race for governor in New York. Then he said that he was doing it absolutely seriously and purposefully. However, he was forced to withdraw his candidacy, amazed by the ambiguous actions of the bureaucrats. It's also worth noting that the former Governor of Minnesota, Jesse Ventura, said he would like Howard and not Donald Trump to take over the presidency in 2016.

10. Clay Aiken

In the days when the American Idol show was incredibly popular, many people came out of it and became famous. Clay, finishing second in season two, was no exception. For a time he enjoyed his music career, but then he became involved in politics and also actively supported the LGBT community. As an openly gay, Aiken ran for the North Carolina Congress in 2014, and at first he really led the Democrats. However, in this race, he lost to Republican Rene Elmers, but many agreed that Clay was able to demonstrate good political skills, despite the fact that he had never encountered such a thing before. Therefore, the question of how he would behave in the presidency remains open for many.

Continuing the theme - who, thanks to their own efforts and efforts, have achieved tremendous success, becoming one of the most outstanding personalities in history.
