Tina Arena slammed lockdowns and urged her followers to vote out Dan Andrews in a candid Instagram video.

Arena slammed the lack of support given to those in the entertainment industry throughout the pandemicThat night, a relaxed Arena sipped from a martini as she was joined by the members of the Australian comedy troupe Sooshi Mango for a 70-minute discussion onMidway through the video, Arena returned to the topic she’d spoken so passionately about on-air earlier that day.national tour go ahead despite warnings from her tour promoter about the possibility of looming lockdowns .

“If any of the states think they have the jurisdiction to continue to lock people up in 2022, there’s something very,Melbourne-based Arena also appeared to urge her followers to vote out Victorian Premier Dan Andrews at the next state election, encouraging them to “take the time to think about who they want to direct this state.”

“When it comes time to vote for those that we choose to work for us, perhaps next time around we pay a little bit more attention as to who we wish to be at the steering wheel. Because quite honestly, it has been the greatest disappointment when a city as beautiful as ours, which was deemed the most liveable in the world … when you look at it now, it’s not at all the most liveable city in the world.

Another Liberal flog …

Positions vacant NSW Premier & NSW Deputy Premier

jannimcmelb Don't support Arena by boycotting any concert of hers

Who listens to Tina anymore or ever anyway

She has gone bananas

We want Andrews out as he has destroyed our freedom and given us worse results any where.. Kick Andrews out

👏👏👏❤

who?

Did the artists not get the covid payments like everyone else? What does she expect, millions in her bank account in the middle of a pandemic. She's lost alot of fans this last week.

She needs to get her facts right before opening her mouth. Job Keeper is Federal Government's responsibility. Maybe she should just clear off back to France or wherever she lives now and keep her nose out of Victorian politics

Has she released any songs this century?

Yes tinaarena, there's a lot wrong with this country and I'm making my dance work at home, but I'm not going to the poll and vote for the LNP 🥶. As JuliaGillard says, 'Not now. Not ever!' It's hard, but I'm a willing participant in the lockdowns FOR OTHERS.

Yes 100% Tina! 💪💪💪🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👋👋👋Foley stated today there are 76 in hospital double jabbed, 17 half jabbed and the remainder not jabbed. So what's that telling huh?

Scotties little sweet heart says it all really.

Scott Morrison literally pays this woman to slag off his political opponents on the MurdochGutterMedia, which they do to undermine the same political opponents. That's why we need a MurdochRoyalCommission. auspol

The time for singers to keep their stupid opinions to themselves is well passed

Her words would carry a lot more weight if she wasn’t employed by Morrison and she actually had the brains to realise why this country has been locked down. Again, another entitled ‘celebrity’ who thinks they have all the answers. Check with your boss Tina

Get lost tinaarena. Stay in France permanently.

And she got her medical degree where?

As she sits in her 7million dollar mansion, were most can only dream about, you would get the best medical care, for the rest of us as we struggle through everyday life, we sould not get the same sort of private, best of the best medical attention. Sure, lockdown is a bitch, instead of pointing a finger, offer a solution that helps everyone not just the rich. So disappointed in someone I thought was down to earth, I guess that is money for you.

Brave well said 👏🏻

Good on her...well said 👍

It’s got nothing to do with Dan Andrews . There are no concerts in an state at the moment because we are in a global pandemic. Honestly, could she be anymore self indulgent? 🤦🏽‍♀️

What would she know. Unbelievable

Well said, Tina. At the moment we're living in some sort of dictatorship, where we are very limited in what we can do. It was the failure of this government to control the virus which got us into this mess.

And who cares what she thinks?

Tiny Tina never grew up

Omg yes. Thank you so much for standing with what is right. Dan has to resign

don't buy her crap music

Is anyone selling a VK or VL Holden Calais 5.0 litre V8 that hasn't been modified?

Boycott Tina Area, there are far better singers and artists than her. I have never ever bought any of her songs and I wouldn't waste my time effort or money buying or listening to them either. IstandWithDanielAndrews But IDontStandWithTinaArena

So her opinions are just as terrible as her music

Wow, this’ll trigger the brokens

And she’s just lost thousand of fans…..well done tinaarena

Are the Toorak lady's thoughts really newsworthy? Bad enough how she embarrassed herself ranting on Studio10. She knows Jobkeeper decisions were made at fed level: a gov led by her buddy Morrison but doesn't have the guts to challenge him because he boosted her personal wealth.

Once an entitled pain in the arse always an entitled pain in the arse.

She does realise Morrison's failure lead us here doesn't she?

Wow. A woman was ‘Australia-famous’ 20 years ago. The Prime Spinister’s favourite artist with a three year music “ambassador” deal with the LNP federal government suddenly hates Dan Andrews? Nothing suspicious there. I asked my kids who She was - no clue - a nobody!

That’s right Tina! FFS where have you been for the last six months? Blame Morrison for the lack of Pfizer and quarantine stations. We would all be vaccinated by now and covid wouldn’t have got into the community if we had purpose built quarantine facilities. TinaArena

Has Tina read outside Murdoch ever? She might like to catch up on some non Murdoch independent sources if she's pointing fingers.

'She encouraged her followers and fans to vote him out '. Look out DanAndrews - 6 less votes coming your way mate !

Tina who?

I suppose celebrities are entitled to an opinion too.

“Baby baby, I’m in chaaaaiiins... I never thought this is where I'd be, I never thought that this (lockdown) could happen to meeeee” - Tina Arena

Stick to singing you old chook.

Sorry Tina - you need a reality check! I was a fan, but definitely not now. Just threw your CD’s in the garbage. 👎🏿

And we are petitioning to send her back to France where she need not worry what Dan Andrews

Don’t you live in France

I don't twitter much, but I think this is the most spectacular 'ratio' I've ever seen. I don't think a kitten strangler would fare quite so badly as this.

How the tables have turned, Tina. J’accuse! tinaarena TinaTantrum LNP Shill

Why do these celebrities think that their opinions are more relevant than that of every day individuals. I’m not a “fan” but if I was; I would be interested in her music, NOT her political views.

This is how much respect I have for her.

Any government that fails to acknowledge freedoms are not granted by a government, but instead, their essential role is to protect a citizen's God-given rights to freedom under a judicious constitution, does not deserve to be in power. NO vote to a fascist DanielAndrewsMP

thankyou Tina . . NO respect for DA and totally none left for the police . .

$30k per year to sit on that board the PM parachuted her onto

gabs247 Tina who?

Who's Tina Arena?

Disappointing. Previously I really liked Tina Arena. 😢😫

If people didn't vote Morrison at the last election, every state would be like Queensland - no cases, no lockdowns, and plenty of money to take care of gig economy workers when there have to be short, sharp lockdowns.

Didn’t she move to France permanently?

Someone’s not feeling relevant 🙄

Tina who?

Actually Tina Arena, there are people who have trained and worked on this. It’s rubbish to say no one knows. You should be praising the medicos who are guiding us through the pandemic.

Blame ScoMo not Dan!

This is brilliant. As soon Dan is gone, so will the virus and associated health emergency. Genius.

Gee do I listen to some one hit wonder from the 90’s or Dan Andrews? I’m in chains!

tinaarena Tina, you should ask the PM about the adequate support for art and music industries. Many people have asked it since 2020 as you are aware.

You haven't the right to chastise Dan he has been with Victorians every step of the way!!!!!

Ooh Tina I get your view and voice. My daughter is an usher without any income. I so know the arts need funding but Dan Andrews is sadly not to blame.The federal government could fund a package like Chuck Shumer did for NYC

tinaarena I see you are on the misinformation and disinformation bandwagon 🙄 MorrisonLockdowns VoteLNPOut GladysOutbreak GladysMustGo

Stop embarrassing yourself Tina.

Isnt this just a News Corp tweet trying to get clicks on their website? Not really a story.

She's as thick as a brick!

Do all of Tina Arena's followers live in the seat of Mulgrave? if not... ya shit outta luck Tina

Still 'little' Tina Arena ... still Learning.

tinaarena honey, you sound better with your mouth closed…..

Tina Arena can go forth and multiply herself.

Anything from Peter Andre yet?

Directing your anger in the wrong direction tinaarena. ScottMorrisonMP was responsible for vaccines and quarantine and failed at both. This has caused the lockdowns.

... but not Gladys?

Tina would rather a few less of her older followers around and a few more bucks in her pocket.

Obvious coordinated plan is obviously coordinated

She’s dead to me 😢

Tina who ….

Well done Tina

This is what i found in people that criticise Andrews. Majority think of their own discomfort, with no regard for the lives and health effects of others. My neighbour has had enough of 'dictator Dan' cos her husband couldn't play golf last weekend...and there you have it.

Pathetic. IStandWithDan

Just another rich person mildly inconvenienced.

She can always move back to France if she is not happy with Dan 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

How about you stick to singing tinaarena and let our elected leader DanielAndrewsMP and his team of experts make these decisions. Stick to your lane.

Cringe worthy then-cringe worthy now. Go away you overrated flog

The artists are only restricted if they live in NSW and Victoria, none of the other states have an issue with performing artists in Covid free states. Not wanting NSW and Vic to cross the border with their huge entourage, limited resources for quarantine.

Thank you Tina!

Surprised she is not cross about the submarines.

The celebrity arsewipe list grows ever longer simonjamesbarry

BABY BABY SorrentoKaren's In Chains!!! tinaarena

Is Tina going to do the same for Gladys?

I am taking her advice at the election and voting against the govt who is responsible for the lockdowns. The fed LNP govt were supposed to order enough vaccines and were responsible for quarantine. If they hadn’t failed at those two things Melb would not be in lockdown this year

Who is this person?

Because her concerts are more important than people’s health. Just another selfish person who thinks the world revolves around them

Political buggies

What a sell out!

If only she was in chains …..

Doesn't she live in France?

What a disappointment she turned out to be. My estimation of her has gone way down. lStandWithDan

Thanks Tina - glad to know how you will vote. I will do the opposite of you.

Tina Arena is horrid CUB.. Just appalling...

Omg I really liked her,but now?

Smart women !! Kick DictatorDan into touch or as they say in the South out of bounds and into the stands .

You’re not exactly in Chains Tina…

Ooopsy! A woman who is famous for being famous or a hard- working Premier of the second largest state in the country. Riiiight.

She sounds drunk. I never liked her anyway…

Next she will be doing mask singer to try and reboot her career.

Mmm... nah.

Tina ‘Karen’ Arena

Candid Instagram? Is that even possible?

And your alternative would be 1000s of cases and hundreds of deaths. Is that what you promote tinaarena Totally lost me…

They should also all stand up

She is a good singer. Stick to singing Tina. Keep out of the health and politics you obviously have no idea about.

Well, I’ve just gone off Tina Arena then.

Spot on. She is smart. And people will vote him and the ALP out.

Not an educated opinion.

Oh, please, please, please ... why did you leave out the photo of her medical degree?

Very unwoke of you Tina. Great to see.

Scott Morrison’s mate, Tiny Tina says something negative about ALP govt. is she doing a favour for Scott or just a bit dim and not across the fact that lockdown the result of Scott Morrison stuffing vaccine rollout? auspol MurdochRiots MurdochGutterMedia MurdochMorons

She can do what she wants. I guess she’ll get backed by MurdochGutterMedia too

“I don’t understand any of this, I now how difficult it is but I don’t like it so vote Dan out” Ok Tina. Gotcha.

Oh, just wait for another 12 MONTHS... don't actually do anything until then... SUCKLERS! You've been had... 🤮

Tina who? Lightweight….

Well I just removed all her albums from my playlist, stick to music not politics.

This is an irresponsible use of one’s celebrity

with Tina's strong, long standing French connection (including residency and honours bestowed there), I await a critique about the cancelled submarines contract by the her mutually adoring Federal government leadership 😉

Good stuff Tina. Time to kick the Dictator to the kerb.

She's an expert epidemiologist is she?

Don't do botox & crocaine kids rots your brain

Martinis and Instagram are clearly a lethal combination for Ms. Arena 😬

Why would anyone listen to a singer or actor about what’s best for health ?

Tina Arena is entitled to her opinion & can vote any which way she wants. Tina Arena is not entitled to try to influence how anyone else votes. If she has tried to influence how other people vote that becomes an appalling abuse of her public platform...

You're really struggling to find any relevant celebs aren't you? This article should refer to her as 'Some Lady'

Oh dear This is going to be embarrassing for her 🥴🥴🥴

And this is why...

She's rich enough

Yikes 😬

Well she might complain about the arts not getting any money but she’s sitting pretty doing nothing and getting $35,000 of pocket money from Morrison who appointed her to the Arts Council. Perhaps she should have a word to her buddy Scott.

Overblown, talentless foghorn, Tina Arena, is the epitome of a LiberalAus Party shill. No one really cares what she says, because critical thinking is obviously not in her boring as batshit repertoire.

Good on her for having the guts to speak out about the industry in which she works and how there has been no funding to assist the arts, I think that’s a pretty fair question to be putting out ? Why is that ? Why has the arts / entertainment sector been forgotten in this pandemic

Scummo's pick. How much she did she get $$ ?

Why would anybody listen to her, is she an epidemiologist now?

Hey - Tiny had a successful 2021 Australia wide tour. Other artists had to cancel or postpone shows. Not sure why Tina is slamming Dan. She needs to have a rant at her 1 Fan - Scott Morrison.

Is she releasing a Christmas album? Needs her name out there and picking up those who have gone off Guy Sebastian GetVaccinatedNow

An interview full of less than insightful comments and seemly a contradiction or two

Is she a closet QAnon ?

Has she even done anything since Chains?!

Thank you Tina… you have every right to raise current issues and massive inconsistencies…

By that logic she should vote Labor at the Federal election then! No Jobkeeper for the Arts!

Didn’t she move to France decades ago?

plalor Forget scott vaccines quarantine

A self-absorbed has-been sipping on a martini in her comfortable residence having a whinge about how hard her life is. Meanwhile paramedics, nurses, and other frontline workers hard at it, working to save lives in order to allow recovery to take place 🙄.

Idiotic. The Morrison Federal government failed to procure and supply vaccines. Morrison cheered on Berejiklian when she dithered about locking down. Then he played favourites with vaccine allocation. MorrisonFailure

Not one politician, or government worker, has lost a cent! We are all in this together? Bullshit!

So you would like to see Victorians get sick, the old die. Well, I'll never take medical or political advice from a 'C' grade entertainer. Your 35 supporters won't do much to the political scene

She’s irrelevant… she can stay in France !! 🤦‍♀️

So… which part of Victoria do you live in again Tina?

No more liberal no more labour its time for a change anyone will do

Considering how vaccination could not be an alternative in the past, did she say what the alternative should have been to lockdowns? What was her solution to avoid uncontrollable death and illness that overwhelmed our Hospitals and Medical staff? Thank god Tina is back 🤔🙈
