Lea Michele Apologizes For Glee Misconduct: ‘I Clearly Acted In Ways That Hurt Other People’
At the end of last week, as global protests were spreading in the wake of the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, Lea Michele tweeted her support for Black Lives Matter. “George Floyd did not deserve this. This was not an isolated incident and it must end,” she wrote. Shortly after, Michele’s former Glee co-star Samantha Marie Ware quote-tweeted Michele’s statement and accused Michele of misconduct on the set of the show, which ran from 2010 to 2015. “Remember when you made my first [television] gig a living hell?!?! Cause [I’ll] never forget,” Ware wrote in all caps. “I believe you told everyone that if [you] had the opportunity you would ‘shit in my wig!’ Amongst other traumatic microaggressions t...
Demi Lovato Memorializes Breonna Taylor And Speaks Out Against White Privilege
Last week, after the killing of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, Demi Lovato posted in solidarity with Black Lives Matter. She also directed her fellow white people to do more. “Do not let your discomfort surrounding social issues prevent you from speaking up for those IN DANGER,” she wrote. “And reality is, until this STOPS COMPLETELY – THE BLACK COMMUNITY WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE IN DANGER. DO YOUR PART.” Since then, her social pages have been full of re-shared informational resources for activism and racial justice, including the pyramid of white supremacy, different funds and actionable ways you can support the movement, and even a plea to not mark black-square Instagram posts on Blackout Tuesday with the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag (s...
The Rock Asks An Important Question: ‘Where Is Our Leader?’
The Rock has one simple message for President Trump: “Where are you?” In a long message posted early this morning (June 4), Dwayne Johnson went in, not directly addressing the president by name but calling out his lack of visibility at a time of mass protests and demonstrations against police violence and killings. “Where is our leader at this time?” he asked. “At this time when our country is down on its knees, begging, pleading, hurt, angry, frustrated, in pain, begging and pleading with its arms out, just wanting to be heard, beginning and pleading and praying for change?” He further addressed the lack of leadership, continuing the metaphor of a country down on its knees and wondering where the president is, knowing he could use his position to try to...
Kanye West Donates $2 Million To Families Of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery
A Forbes headline from earlier this year declared that “Kanye West is now officially a billionaire (and he really wants the world to know).” This was further backed up by the magazine’s new “The Celebrity 100” list it unveiled today (June 4), placing West as the highest-paid musician in the world and the second-highest paid celebrity. (Notably, he placed only below his family member Kylie Jenner.) West, for his part, has stayed publicly quiet about the accolade on social media, where he’s also chosen not to weigh in on the ongoing protests against police violence and the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor at the hands of police, as well as the killings of Ahmaud Arbery and more Black men and women. But according to new reports, West has reportedly...
Ariana Grande, Halsey, Kehlani, And More Joined Protests Against Racist Violence
At the end of last week and into the weekend, thousands of Americans in cities like Minneapolis, Louisville, Columbus, Chicago, New York, and more gathered to protest police violence in light of the recent deaths of unarmed civilians George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and more. Soon, the movement had grown global, with notable demonstrations in New Zealand, England, Germany, Italy, and other European countries taking place, as well. Meanwhile, celebrities were using their platforms to support these protests and stand in solidarity. Lady Gaga, whose new Chromatica album was released as the demonstrations were growing on Friday, tweeted on May 31, “The voices of the [B]lack community have been silenced for too long and that silence has proven deadly time and time again.” Likewise...
Billie Eilish Shares New Short Film On Body-Image Double Standards
Though she’s since had to postpone the remainder of the dates on her Where Do We Go? World Tour, Billie Eilish‘s massive global trek kicked off earlier this year with a powerful statement. Back in March, at a show in Miami, Eilish unveiled a short film meant to combat body-shaming as a preface to her song “All the Good Girls Go to Hell.” Now, she’s shared that film — which had previously only been found circulating in fan-captured footage — in full on her YouTube page. It’s called “Not My Responsibility,” and it features Eilish stripping off layers of her clothes as she asks via voiceover, “Do my shoulders provoke you? Does my chest? Am I my stomach? My hips? The body I was born with, is it not what you wanted?” Eilish included th...
Doja Cat Addresses Accusations Of Racist Language In ‘Completely Honest’ Instagram Live
Over the weekend, Doja Cat posted a note to her Instagram page in an attempt to clarify videos from her past that had resurfaced on social media, including clips of her using racial slurs. “I understand my influence and impact and I’m taking this all very seriously,” she wrote. “I love you all and I’m sorry for upsetting or hurting any of you. That’s not my character, and I’m determined to show that to everybody moving forward. Thank you.” But that was really only the beginning. The videos, as outlets have pointed out, captured Doja Cat’s participation on Tinychat, an online messaging app; a widely circulated tweet characterized her fellow video chatters as “alt-right white supremacists.” The same tweet thread also made note...
