CELEBRITY Dave grohl

Lead singer of the iconic rock band The Foo Fighters, Dave Grohl will not be running for President in 2020. “I’m not doing an Oprah," Grohl said in an interview with GQ. Despite his rejection of the position, the front man has been increasingly political, speaking of the current political climate in the US and how it affects citizens on a global scale.

“The American Dream was still tangible, still desirable,” Grohl said. “Today, the American Dream is broken. I’ve probably traveled internationally more than our current president and the one thing I understand that he doesn’t is that the world isn’t as big as you think it is. It is all in your neighborhood. India, Asia, Iceland aren’t other solar systems."

The legendary rocker may be disenfranchised with the government, but as any great musician knows, music is the force to bring people back together.

"I know a lot of wonderful people who don't share my politics and you can bet tomorrow night in the stadium not everyone will share the same opinion or hold the same views. But when I sing 'My Hero' they will all sing it with me. In the three hours that I am on stage, none of that matters," Grohl said.

The Foo Fighters are currently on the road for their Concrete and Gold 2018 tour.
