Most Popular Celebrities Texas Would Pick To Be President

One of the only fun parts of the political cycle is coming up with weird hypothetical ballots featuring celebrities. It's a fun opportunity for everyone in Texas to pull out our worst Matthew McConaughey impression. Over 2,000 people were asked which celebs they would vote for in the election, and here's who Texas picked. By the way, it's not who you think.

Which Movie Stars Would Texas Pick For President?

When it comes to movie stars, I was shocked to see that Matthew didn't make the cut. For whatever reason, Mr. Alright Alright Alright wasn't on the list. Instead, in a study that was done by Coventry Direct, Texans picked:

Actor: Denzel Washington
Actress: Jennifer Lawrence

I'm fairly certain I've seen every movie Denzel has ever done, and I would trust that man at the helm. Plus, he's always good for a quick one-liner.

I suppose Jennifer Lawrence directly reflects the anti-establishment gene most Texans carry thanks to The Hunger Games. Sticking it to the man, achieving independence, and being really good at hunting? Those sound like they are some of the most "Texas" movies ever made.

Which Musicians Would Texans Pick For President?

This one was a little bit of a surprise. I would have guessed that Texans picked one of our own. We have a deep, rich history when it comes to music. However, I honestly can't be mad at one pick. The other one, well, it's hard to compete with the most popular person on the planet.

Male Musician: Bruce Springsteen
Female Musician: Taylor Swift

I suppose The Boss' blue-collar vibe is what gave him the edge. When it comes to Tay Tay, she's the most popular person on the planet. Most Swifties wouldn't even know what they were picking her for, but would simply do it out of sacred duty to their queen. It's hard to fight that kind of popularity.

Which celeb would you pick to be president? I'd vote for Harrison Ford or Samuel L. Jackson's way any day of the week if Denzel is busy.
