Kapanlagi.com - The 2024 regional elections became a platform for celebrities to try their luck in the political arena. Several big names like Kris Dayanti, Vicky Prasetyo, and Ramzi also participated, running for various strategic positions. However, their efforts did not go smoothly.
Quick count results showed that the majority of artists who ran actually struggled to compete with more experienced political figures. The votes they received were often far from the target for victory, despite relying on their popularity.
This phenomenon captured public attention, raising the question: is popularity alone not enough to win the hearts of the people? Check out their journey in the 2024 regional elections below.

Hengky Kurniawan, the incumbent Regent of West Bandung, is running again with Ade Sudrajat. Despite having experience as a regent, Hengky only managed to secure 23.96 percent of the votes based on the quick count by Indikator. They lost to the pair Jeje Govinda who led with 37.84 percent.

Several other artists also recorded unsatisfactory results. Vicky Prasetyo, a candidate for Regent of Pemalang, was in the lowest position according to the preliminary results from the General Election Commission (KPU).
In Cilacap, Vicky Shu, who ran as Deputy Regent with Awaluddin Muuri, only garnered 33.50 percent of the votes. Gilang Dirga and Alam Mbah Dukun also failed in their respective areas with very minimal vote counts.
The majority of artists lost due to a lack of experience in politics and campaign strategies that were not effective enough to compete with local political figures.
No. Popularity helps attract attention, but factors such as work programs, credibility, and political experience are more decisive.
Most artists will return to the entertainment industry, but some will remain active in politics or social fields.
