    Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo told Fox News host Jesse Watters there are “a lot” of “quiet” Donald Trump supporters in Hollywood.

    The actress, who played Adriana La Cerva on the critically acclaimed Sopranos , joined Watters on Monday and reacted to President Joe Biden’s recent Hollywood fundraiser where he raised $30 million and celebrities like Jack Black and Jimmy Kimmel took to the stage. Watters aired footage from the event, as well as a clip of Robert De Niro ranting against Donald Trump outside his hush money trial in Manhattan.

    “Is there a quiet Trump voter out there in Hollywood?” Watters asked.

    “Hello there, first of all. And I think there is a lot of them. I think there are a lot of — that was a hard intro to watch. I’m sorry,” de Matteo said.

    “Was it Jack Black’s legs?” Watters asked.

    “No, it’s the Italian, man. We’re talking about [Anthony] Fauci , we’re talking about De Niro. I am mortified right now by my people,” de Matteo said. “I don’t understand what we’re doing here.”

    She added there are “a lot” of quiet supporters of Trump and independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. She also casually questioned if celebrities are being paid for their endorsements of Biden.

    “There are a lot of quiet Trump supporters, there are a lot of Kennedy supporters. And wow, I wonder how much the actors got paid to endorse Biden at this point. I’m curious, because that seems — I wonder if De Niro got paid a locations fee because he had to travel to the courtroom to do that,” she said.

    The actress appeared to be joking as she said doesn’t know the specifics of celebrities working with campaigns, calling herself and other Sopranos actors “outcasts.”

    “I don’t really maneuver inside that industry. I never have. First of all, Sopranos , we were the outcast, even though we were critically acclaimed, we still were outcasts. So I’m still an outcast, here I am. They’re going to take me out into the woods and shoot me for not endorsing Biden,” she said.

    De Matteo is also known for roles in projects like Sons of Anarchy , but she’s stepped away from acting recently. She told Watters that she never cared about politics “until this moment.” She told Fox News last year that she turned to producing OnlyFans content after her stance against the Covid vaccine lost her gigs .
