More Performers to Join Stevie Wonder's Florida Boycott
Jay Z, Kanye West, Madonna, and reportedly others
Some of the music industry's biggest acts are joining Stevie Wonder in boycotting Florida over the state's controversial "stand your ground" law.
Artists joining Wonder include Rod Stewart, Madonna, Usher and Justin Timberlake, a source close to the legendary musician told American Urban Radio Network's April Ryan.
Rappers Jay Z, Kanye West, Trey Songz, Young Jeezy and Wale have also signed on to the boycott threat, as have pop acts like R. Kelly, Rihanna and Alicia Keys.

Celebutards gonna celebutard.
Are they performing in Florida? That's a whole lot of stupid, arrogant, self-righteous dipshits in one place. Maybe there will be a tsunami.
Are these morons also going to boycott Alaska, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, South Dakota, New hampshire, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana?
Rod Stewart WTF?
Rod Stewart?
Oh dear, Rod. For shame.
What a stupid, ignorant boycott.
It is breathtaking how deeply dull witted one must be to be an "entertainer" today.
Perhaps all of them will wear their ball caps backwards?
Why do people keep eating at Jack in the Box after the company dynamited all their Jack in the Box sculptures back in the 80s ?
..I would think that such violence would reap universal boycotting, not just from music artists.
