The victory of former US President Donald Trump, and his return to the US President office following the US Presidential Elections of 2024, has ruffled many feathers in Hollywood.  

Several Hollywood celebrities who rallied behind Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris, reacted strongly to Trump’s win.

Singer-songwriter Billie Eilish took to the Stories section of Instagram, and wrote, “It’s a war on women”.

Rapper Cardi B posted a video of herself watching the results of the 2024 Elections. She said in the video, “I hate y'all bad"

Author Stephen King took to his X, formerly Twitter, and expressed concern for democracy in his X reaction. He posted, “There’s a sign you can see in many shops that sell beautiful but fragile items: LOVELY TO LOOK AT, DELIGHTFUL TO HOLD, BUT ONCE YOU BREAK IT, THEN IT’S SOLD. You can say the same about democracy”.

Singer-songwriter Ariana Grande wrote, “Holding the hand of every person who is feeling the immeasurable heaviness of this outcome today”.

Actress Viola Davis posted a photo of Harris and thanked her for “loving America’s promise,” adding, “I am and will forever be proud”.

A huge chunk of Hollywood campaigned for Kamala Harris including superstars like Robert Downey Jr and Taylor Swift. While the Democrats managed to hold the forts in California, where Hollywood is based, and New York, Republicans swept the 2024 Presidential elections in several parts of the US.

While Trump is set to assume office, it remains to be seen how his policies reflect on the US and the global geo-politics especially when the middle east is ravaged with a war between Israel and Hamas, and eastern Europe with Russia-Ukraine war. In the past, Trump had called back the forces from Afghanistan after 20 years of deployment which led to the establishment of the new order of the terrorist organisation, Taliban in Afghanistan.
