Maybe I don't get it. When has a pop star ever dramatically, permanently changed the politics or condition of the world? Sure they support certain things and might bring a bit of a following towards a certain cause, but I don't know of any that have actually brought about a long-term change.
Hell, Michael Jackson approached the Beatles in terms of popularity and capital, but even his penchant for fucking little boys didn't start a movement for or against molestation..
