Pharrell Williams Says He 'Gets Annoyed' by Politics: 'I Like People Trying to Help People'

"In fact, I get annoyed sometimes when I see celebrities trying to tell you [who to vote for]," the musician/producer doubled down

Pharrell Williams is making it known that he doesn't want his name associated with any political party.

During a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the artist and Men's Creative Director at Louis Vuitton revealed that he "gets annoyed" by the political playing field today.

Williams, 51, touted himself to the publication as “much more of a federal employee. I believe in merited civil service.“

"I’m more of a humanitarian," he added. "I like people trying to help people. Not sure I’ll ever vote far right. I won’t do that.”

Though Williams made it clear in that chat: "I don’t do politics," he further doubled down on his disdain of celebrity involvement in politics by stating: "In fact, I get annoyed sometimes when I see celebrities trying to tell you [who to vote for]. There are celebrities that I respect that have an opinion, but not all of them.”

The artist did not elaborate on whose opinions he felt as though are valid.

“I’m one of them people [who says], ‘What the heck? Shut up. Nobody asked you,' " he said of his stance towards political leanings being shared publicly by celebrities. "When people get out there and get self-righteous and they roll up their sleeves and s---, and they are out there walking around with a placard: ‘Shut up!’ So, no, I would rather stay out of the way, and obviously, I’m going to vote how I’m going to vote. I care about my people and I care about the country, but I feel there’s a lot of work that needs to be done, and I’m really about the action.”

Williams' comments about celebrities making political stances comes on the heels of Taylor Swiftpublicly endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2025 presidential election.

Swift, 34, wrote alongside an Instagram post directly after Harris' debate with Former President Donald Trump on Sept. 10, "If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most. As a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country."

"I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election," she continued at the time. "I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades."
