Celebrity clothing lines have always held zero interest for me. I can truthfully say I've never bought a "celebrity product." And that's because the celebrity's name is only on the items because they paid to have it there. They did not "design" anything, even if they claim they did. I evaluate the items based solely on do I like it/would I wear it or not, and I've never seen anything I liked a lot and would wear frequently.
That said, the known, i.e. publicized, behavior of actors, singers, authors, artists, CEOs, and the like DOES (and always has) affect whether or not I buy their items. I don't "research" people and companies, but when some behavior or belief I don't appreciate comes to the public, media-reported eye, I often (though not always) make the choice to drop them off my purchase list. There are cut off your nose to spite your face instances where I continue buying, especially if it's something I need/use often. But then, even back in the 60s I wasn't a universal crusader for truth, justice, etc. My conscience is my own - I don't need to take on everyone else's and they don't need to take on mine.
Regarding the subject of this thread - there are quite a few reading and commenting who either don't know what was said, or refuse to believe what was said. That doesn't make for informed exchange of opinions, IMO.
