Libertarian Celebrities

Comprehensive Libertarian Celebrity Profiles

Discover which of your favorite celebrities identify as libertarians! This list features famous figures who have publicly declared themselves as ‘libertarian’—those who generally value individual liberty, free markets, and peace.

Remember that self-identification doesn’t guarantee complete adherence to libertarian principles, and interpretations of what makes someone ‘truly libertarian’ vary widely. Consider this list as a starting point rather than a definitive classification.

Bookmark and check back often as we regularly update with new additions. Spot a celebrity claiming the libertarian label? Let us know at celebs@theadvocates.org!
