Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is backing out of his own birthday fundraiser gala after celebrity guests Martin Sheen, Dionne Warwick, Mike Tyson and Andrea Bocelli, who were reported to be attending, instead stated that they would skip it.

The gala is hosted by the super PAC American Values 2024, which backs Kennedy's presidential candidacy, and another PAC. In late December, American Values 2024 shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, a Daily Mail story reporting the fundraiser event to celebrate Kennedy's 70th birthday and listed the four celebrities as guests.

Warwick was the first to respond on X, denying she was going and calling the PAC's announcement "absolutely ridiculous." Soon afterward, Martin Sheen, who played the president on the TV series "The West Wing," took to Instagram.

"I do not endorse RFK Jr. nor will I be attending his party," Sheen said. He added that he's "whole heartedly supporting Joe Biden and the Democratic ticket in 2024."

Since Sheen doesn't have an X account, Bradley Whitford, who played the White House deputy chief of staff on the TV show, tweeted on Sheen's behalf.

"There's a story going around saying that Martin Sheen is supporting @RobertFKennedyJr for president. The story is incorrect," Whitford said on X.

A representative for Andrea Bocelli told Rolling Stone that the Italian tenor is not singing at the gala. Page Six reported that a representative of the former boxer said Mike Tyson was the only star who admitted he had been invited — but he, too, declined the invitation.

Never expected to respect Tyson even more in 2024.

" X, formerly known as Twitter,"

We all know who and what X is - do we really need to keep reading that it was formerly Twitter??

I wonder if either Scott Baio or Clint Eastwood had gotten an invitation to RFK Jr birthday fundraiser.

@Real Music,
He's afraid of serious questioning requiring facts as opposed to pure opinions.

He'll be lining up with "No Labels" soon enough.

I assure you that I am not sitting in front of a type-writer at a table in a post season deserted Bannf Resort, with a hand on an axe, about to look for my wife.

I am sitting at a keyboard taking seriously Tsar's suggestion that the comment should be repeated ad nauseum until the heat death of the universe.

RFK, Jr. is a disgrace to RFK, whom I considered to be a devious, but capable individual who would have made a very effective president. Junior is pathetic.

RFK has certainly gotten himself scarce in the news after that b-day debacle.

Wow, I wonder who made all that up, and why? Thoughts?
