Emmy winner Drea de Matteo spoke out about Hollywood stars’ desire to oppose the Biden administration’s divisive social agenda but fear doing so.

De Matteo shared her struggle to find her voice on ‘Triggered with Donald Trump Jr.’ and expressed a conservative view despite being liberal. Emmy-winning actress Drea de Matteo sheds light on Hollywood stars’ reluctance to challenge the Biden administration’s polarizing social initiatives. She is renowned for her portrayal in The Sopranos, earning the 2004 Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress. De Matteo opened up about her quest for a voice on ’Triggered with Donald Trump Jr.,’ revealing a conservative standpoint amidst her liberal beliefs.
Emmy-winning actress Drea de Matteo said she knows from personal experience that many Hollywood stars “want to fight” against the divisive social agenda being pushed by the Biden administration but “are petrified” to do so.
De Matteo is best known for her role as Adriana La Cerva on the Sopranos. She won the 2004 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.
While appearing on Triggered with Donald Trump Jr., de Matteo admitted she felt she did not have the “voice” to do so.
“I wanted to. I really did want to fight, but I didn’t think I had, A, the voice, B, the balls,” de Matteo said. “I kind of got thrown to the wolves, I felt like, and once I was out there. I was like I’m out here, what am I going to do? I’m out of my cage. Like, I may as well, you know, do what I got to do.”
“I’m just so liberal that I’m a conservative at this point.”

The Sopranos actress said she now feels supported by her family and God.
“My children, they believe in what we believe in, which is freedom and unity the right way. Not unity the way this administration was trying to push. That was bulls***,” de Matteo said. “They took every social agenda and used that and used these social issues as pawns to further their administration, did nothing but divide people.”
“This administration just has been hammering all of these things. And people in Hollywood are petrified. What are you going to speak out against race, and sex, and all of that stuff?” she added. “People are afraid to have those kinds of conversations. Because first of all, you never win with a label. You’re just never going to win.”
De Matteo then noted how the social climate of the nation has shifted so drastically to markedly cause her to become a conservative today.
“I’m just so liberal that I’m conservative at this point,” de Matteo said with laughter. “Liberals are supposed to be open-minded.”

The actress’s comments come as the Biden administration finalized Title IX regulations last week, expanding the definition of sex to include transgender identities in sexual harassment and discrimination situations.
The administration, however, left transgender participation in sports to an open rulemaking process until after the 2024 election.
