Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Billie Eilish wore Antisemitic Hanass supporting red button on red carpet at the Oscars 2024…
Billie Eilish, Finneas, Mark Ruffalo, Ava DuVernay, Ramy Youssef and Quannah Chasinghorse are among the latest stars to step onto the red carpet in matching red lapel pins — this time at the Academy Awards. And though he did not walk the carpet, actor Mahershala Ali also donned one of the pins when helping introduce the nominees for this year’s Best Supporting Actor award. But what do they mean?
Featuring an outline of a hand around a black heart, the pins call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, which Palestinian health authorities say has resulted in 30,000 deaths in Gaza since October. A group of over 400 celebrities have joined Artists4Ceasefire, a campaign that in late October published a letter urging the US Congress and President Joe Biden to call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and Israel.
And other symbols representing the same cause have been spotted on red carpets throughout awards season. At the 2024 Golden Globes, J. Smith-Cameron from the show Succession wore a yellow ribbon to support the release of the 136 hostages taken by Hamas Oct. 7, 2023. About 30 are presumed to be dead, according to a recent Israel intelligence assessment reviewed by the New York Times.
The New York Times points out that actors Tony Shalhoub and Ebon Moss-Bachrach sported the pins at Screen Actors Guild Awards.
