Sylvester Stallone says he was never asked about Trump's Hollywood ambassador role

Sylvester Stallone, the 80-year-old actor, said he was never asked to be one of President Donald Trump's 'special ambassadors' to Hollywood. He learned of the appointment while watching TV, alongside Mel Gibson and Jon Voight. In an interview with The Times of London, Stallone said he told Trump the role was impossible and declined, saying 'thank you and ciao.' He compared Hollywood to feudal states with their own kingdoms. Despite this, Stallone has been a vocal Trump supporter, calling him 'the second George Washington' at a 2024 Mar-a-Lago gala.
