In this picture released by Miraflores Press Office, Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez talks to Sean Penn in Cumana, 400 km east of Caracas.
Venezuela’s state-run news agency reports that the 48-year-old actor and director accompanied Chavez during the inspection of a natural gas pipeline on Sunday.
This is Sean’s second meeting with Chavez. He also visited in August 2007, when he went as a freelance journalist.
Other A-list stars who have visited Chavez and expressed their support for his efforts to help the poor include Danny Glover, Kevin Spacey and British supermodel Naomi Campbell.

Sometimes I think he just does these things to get a piss out of Americans.
Love this man!
Sean Penn looks like Danny Bonaduce in the first picture and Robert DeNiro in the second. He and Bobby have the same birthday……..I LOVE Bobby D!
Sean should re-marry Madonna once her divorce from Guy is done.
#1……….I’m not pissed. I’m also not a liberal or a dem, but I am an American who believes Sean Penn has the right to be were he wants an talk to who he wants “just like the Constitution says.”
#4………Sean is already married, and plus I wouldn’t wish Madonna BACK on him,
I have no idea what he’s doing there but I love the fact that he doesn’t give a shit about what people think
Idiot
Poor Spicoli is too stupid to realize he’s just being used as a propaganda tool by Hugo Chavez.
As despicable as Sean Penn is, at least he’s honest about his radical far-left, socialist agenda. So long as he doesn’t work to bring that failed, anti-democratic philosophy here, he can hang out with all the socialist thugs he wants.
In the leftist Hollywood circles that Sean Penn runs in, meeting with socialist radicals is a badge of honor. In Chicago, it can even get you elected president.
Piss out of Americans or Republicans?!
10….Are you suggesting that Democrats have no issue with Hugo Chavez?
Why does a president waste his time meeting with some random celebrity? I mean, what can Sean Penn do for his country? Inane.
Do I see Christopher Hitchens in the background? I’d recognize that bloated, sweaty face anywhere!
Hugo Chavez is running his country into the ground in the name of “fairness”, higher taxes on the “rich” and redistributionist policies. Hmmm, sound like any U.S. presidential candidates you know?
Useful Idiot
I’m not taking sides here but the U.S. has really been kind of a bully in South America for a long long time so I would kind of like to hear Chavez’s side of the story before completely villifying him. As for Sean Penn? Who cares.
He can do whatever the hell he wants. Instead of sitting on his ass making movie after movie he wants to effect change in the world. I find that highly admirable. Sean knows how to live life and sit strong in his opinions. Oh and he’s a damn smart guy who actually uses his brains. More than we can say about anyone in the white house.
I see Hitchens in there as well. I’m sure we’ll be reading about this visit in an upcoming Vanity Fair.
Clearly many of the commentators on this site have no clue who Hugo Chavez really is. The same people who proudly wear Che Guevara t-shirts while completely ignorant of his legacy of murder and corruption. Sadly, all some people in this country know is that he’s Anti-American and that’s enough for many “Americans” to like him. Gee, I wonder who those people will be voting for in two weeks.
If they don’t care for the American way then by all mean’s LEAVE. Sean Penn and the Hollywood elite have made millions off the good American people for decades but yet we have to hear them bash America. It would make many happy if they would leave and reside in another country and find they couldn’t voice their opinion as easily as they do in good ol’ US of A. GET OUT and leave us the hell alone, and yes it does PISS ME OFF!!
Two pieces of *&%! in one spot. Socialist together again. Watch out USA the Socialist want you and you don’t even know what is coming. The media reports only one side, the side they want to put in and keep in power. Owned and dictated to by George Soros. Wake up people before it is too late.
So he visits his Daddy whats wrong with that. Looks like he stayed up late and got drunk. Wish he would move back home, his movies suck, we don’t need the likes of him here.
SEAN PENN IS AN ANTI AMERICAN WHO CHOOSES TO SLAP AMERICA IN THE FACE. HE NEEDS TO MOVE IN WITH CHAVEZ AND STAY OUT OF THE UNITED STATES. WE DO NOT NEED PEOPLE LIKE HIM IN THIS COUNTRY.
