Just for the record AS never had a Hollywood mansion. He had a three bedroom house. He doesn't have that anymore either.
AS has never made any bones about the fact that he thinks Sweden is superior to American including their ideologies. He has every right to think that. I'm sure most non Americans think their country is superior to America. A good many of them would probably be correct too. I'm American and I can admit the we aren't the end all and be all of countries. -

Thank you for the clarification regarding the house - I always read that it was a mansion so I wasn't sure.
I do know that he did/does drive a Porsche or an Audi though. He has been photographed with several.
Which is my case in point - he absolutely has a right to feel his country is better. And that is fine to say that.
I just thought it was rather hypocritical of him to make this analogy about "IKEA guy from Sweden drives an old car while Donald Trump sits on a throne in America and that's why Sweden is better" when he himself drives a fancy car. AND I could pick one person from the US too to argue against his point. I could say, "WELL, Mark Zuckerberg drives an old car and he's rich and American, so THERE!"
Anyway, to each their own! I am from the US and don't like many things here either. In the end I suppose there are better things for me to do with my time than wonder about the motivations behind some celebrity's interview. Haha!
Thank you for replying! Have a good day.

this is reply of the previous comment, "Brits are affectionate, have u ever met one"?!?
I SOOO AGREE!! Though I have met a few 'warm' Britons, as a whole, they are very very reserved!
( and trust, I have spent a HUGE amount of time in England! )
just thought I'd put my penny inTHANKS FOR THIS DIALOGUE!
