You turned down a $9million movie role in 2021 because you wouldn’t take the COVID vaccine. It was being mandated in Hollywood at the time. Any regrets? It’s a lot of money!

Not at all, not one regret!

[…] I mean everybody can use $9million I don’t care how rich they think they are. You know, everybody can use that money. I could have used that money, my family could have used that money, but I felt like your health is worth more than all the money in the world. Because if you had all the money in the world and you wasn’t healthy, you would you would use that money to get healthy.

So, to me, it was an experimental drug and they had no time to really see the long-term effects like most. I’m vaccinated, I’ve been vaccinated when I was a kid. But these are drugs that have been tested for decades. And you know pretty much most of side effects.

Once it was established against what they initially thought, that you could still transmit the virus whether you were vaccinated or not, to me, it becomes a personal choice. It’s down to you.

Yeah, without a doubt! And you know the pharmaceutical companies made a lot of money. Um, businesses closed. You know, it’s like an incentive even when things are not going right to keep going. Um, it’s kind of like the war machine. You know, if you make the bullets and the band-aids, you’re going to always want to be in war. Because it’s profitable.
