celebrities supporting "Israel" + celebrities supporting Palestine

I found an absolutely massive 70-page list of all the people in Hollywood who've supported "Israel" (they signed the “Israel Must Defend Itself” pro-genocide IOF letter, showed support only for Israel, spread IOF propaganda, used “Palestinians are terrorists” language, etc) — but it included tons of people I've never heard of and, like, talent agents and lawyers and non-celebrities... so I went through it and got all the recognizable names + made them into a list (below the cut), because it's important to name exactly who's supporting Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

[EDIT: the doc got taken down, so I removed the link. I included every name I recognized on there in this post. Also, if you're on your dashboard, click on the timestamp below my username to view the most recent version of the post.]

Additionally, I searched for all the celebrities who've supported Palestine (not liking one post while sharing nothing, not saying something vague about both sides, but actually using language like "genocide" and "apartheid" while talking about what "Israel" is doing to Palestine), and that's below the cut too.

I compiled this not to ~cancel~ anyone (cancel culture does not exist for celebrities) or put anyone on a pedestal, but to document who with power and influence gleefully cheered on genocide, and who decided to speak out against it despite the heavily rumored gag order in the entertainment industry. You shouldn't look to celebrities for morals or politics, but whether we like it or not, these people have millions of followers — the pro-"Israel" list has more than two billion combined followers. What they say and do matters because of that scope. For better or (usually) for worse, celebrities influence public opinion.

If someone praises "Israel's" "right to defend itself" (by committing genocide against Palestinians), and they do so in front of 300 million people: that goes far beyond just being complicit.

notes about this post:

I've gotten a few anons asking me to add certain people, along the lines of "add taylor swift bc she's been silent!!!" "add jungkook bc someone who worked on his album is a zionist!!!" etc, and I just wanted to say: no, I'm not adding situations like that; this list is for people who've spread and/or interacted directly with pro-"Israel"/pro-genocide propaganda, accepted blood money, raised money for the IOF, supported Zionism or "Israel" themselves (not just working with a Zionist before Fall 2023), etc. Ignorance about Zionists and staying silent are bad things, and you can form your own opinion on people who've stayed silent or worked with Zionists — but that's not what this list is about (especially when the Zionists in question weren't even loud about it before Fall 2023).

I was going to also make a Google doc, for easier reading, but I've heard rumors about Google docs getting hacked by Zionists, so I'm gonna stick with just here.

I also included a list of resources at the very end of this post.

PRO-"ISRAEL":

(I tried to include big names + people I know are popular on Tumblr)

IOF Letter = they signed the letter in support of “Israel” and their military, saying “Israel” must defend itself by any means necessary against this “unprovoked” attack, and using language that suggests all Palestinians are Hamas/“terrorists,” and that all civilian casualties are worth it. SOURCE FOR WHO SIGNED IT. Link includes more names; I only included the ones I recognized as someone terminally online.

NOTE: “Israel’s” military calls itself the IDF — the “Israeli” Defense Forces. However, Palestinians and human rights activists call it the IOF, the “Israeli” Occupation Forces, because they are attacking civilians, occupying a land that's not theirs, and committing genocide, not defending anything (besides imperialism and white supremacy). Additionally, many choose to put “Israel” in quotes when referring to the settler colony, because “Israel” is not a real country, unless you support and believe in settler colonialism.

Biden letter = they signed the letter addressed to Biden, saying they are AGAINST a ceasefire, telling Biden that he’s doing a great job helping “Israel” with this whole situation, and asking for Biden to make sure there are “no hostages left behind” in Gaza (something he would have no control over, especially if “Israel” continues bombing Gaza, which this letter says they want). SOURCE FOR WHO SIGNED IT, and here’s why this letter is so bad (in the thread) — links have more names; I only included the ones I recognized.

He's lost over 800,000 followers on IG since this partnership was announced, but some fans have tried to lie and say that he "donated to Palestine" so that makes this fine and okay; in reality, he made a donation on World Food Day (October 16) to World Food Program Korea, which provides food aid to many places and started donating food to Gaza in December, more than six weeks after Doyoung's donation. And as many Palestinians and activists have said: even if he did "donate to Palestine," which he did NOT do, that would make him doing ads for McDonalds significantly worse, since that would suggest he knows better but chose to do ads for McDonalds anyway.

Constance Wu — Biden letter

Xu Minghao (The8 of Kpop group Seventeen) — suddenly doing a brand deal with Starbucks in Dec 2023

Yang Jeongin (i.n of Kpop group Stray Kids) — suddenly doing a brand deal with McDonalds in Dec 2023

Rebecca Yarros (author of The Fourth Wing) — Zionist who says "Israel" has the right to exist

Yu Jimin (Karina of Kpop group aespa) — suddenly doing brand deals with both McDonalds and Starbucks in Dec 2023

Gabrielle Zevin (author of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow) — self-described Zionist whose book is about "the founding of Israel" being a good thing

Kpop groups being boycotted for currently having one or more members with Starbucks and/or McDonalds brand deals:

aespa*, Ateez, BlackPink, The Boyz*, IVE, NCT, Seventeen, SHINee, Stray Kids

(* All members of aespa are now openly doing promo for both Starbucks and McDonalds, except Giselle, who deleted all promotional posts from her IG when fans tagged her in info about the boycott and Gaza. The other aespa members still have all posts up, despite also being tagged. // The Boyz has one member promoting Starbucks, but a different member (Kevin, mentioned below) has spoken out as pro-Palestine.)

NOTE: South Korea has been very pro-Palestine these past few months, with large protests every week at the "Israeli" embassy, and many Koreans empathizing as a formerly colonized people. South Korea has voted with humanity on every UN vote, unlike the US. Several idols mentioned above speak English as their first language, and a few are known for being very online.

These idols aren't ignorant; they just don't care. They're all adults in their 20s (or older) and they have no excuse, and they will be held accountable, just like everyone else mentioned above. Despite Kpop stans believing and insisting that Koreans are all idiots who know nothing about the world, South Korea is pro-Palestine. A handful of capitalist Kpop idols are pro-genocide and pro-money. Getting some extra cash was more important than Palestinian lives.

Brands like McDonalds and Starbucks know exactly what they're doing, suddenly hiring Kpop idols during the boycott, given how Kpop stans are known for being idiots who lack morals, defend their faves no matter what, and buy anything their faves promote. Clearly it's working, because the replies to NCT's Doyoung's McDonalds sponsorship announcement is full of people posting pictures of themselves getting McDonalds ~for him~, and "Seventeen best boys" is currently trending as I type this, with fans trying to hide the fact "Seventeen Israel" was the top search result.

People who signed BOTH letters to Biden (the letter condemning "Israel's" war crimes and saying they want a ceasefire, and the letter praising Biden and saying they don't want a ceasefire and the US should continue helping "Israel"):

I've heard of a few cases where celebrities' agents signed the pro-"Israel" letter on their behalf without telling them, or what was in the letter(s) was very misrepresented to them, so idk what's going on with these people:

Bradley Cooper (currently dating one of the Hadid sisters, but has also starred in US military propaganda films)

Kirsten Dunst

David Oyewolo

Jordan Peele

Mary Elizabeth Winstead

Hozier is also not being included as either pro-"Israel" or pro-Palestine, because for years he was openly and explicitly pro-Palestine, but when it mattered most, when speaking out against "Israel" carried the most risk, he put out some bullshit "both sides are bad!!!!" statement. He's apparently changed his tune somewhat and started advocating for a ceasefire at concerts (the actual bare minimum), but it's still not good enough considering we know he knows better as an activist (and Irishman), and the damage was already done. He waited until after 10,000+ Palestinians were dead before he was willing to say anything more than the "both sides" shit.

PRO-PALESTINE:

Palestinians first, then alphabetical by surname + if they have their pronouns listed on social media, or they've mentioned their pronouns in an interview, I will include them here

Simi, Haze, and Fai Khadra— on their shared account, they said: "You are watching genocide. 2 million innocent Palestinians in Gaza and 1 million of those are children under the age of 15, all for your "vengeance"…where's your humanity now? Gaza is being bombed to rubble as we post…" + much more about "Israel's" genocide of Palestinians and current attacks on Gaza

Freya Allan (The Witcher) — shared many pro-Palestine and anti-Zionism posts and resources for helping Palestine

Riz Ahmed — said "If we are on the side of humanity we must urgently speak up to try and avert the loss of innocent life. This means calling for an end to the indiscriminate bombing of Gaza's civilians and vital infrastructure, the denial of food, water, and electricity, and the forced displacement of people from their homes. These are morally indefensible war crimes."

When they are NOT the same thing. They want us to believe this so they can continue brutally killing innocent Palestinians, mothers and children, under the pretense of destroying Hamas." + much more about "Israel's" attacks on Gaza + she got fired from the Scream franchise for her support of Palestine

Björk — pro-Palestine including posting "is this what you call sharing ?" with a picture of "Israel's" land theft of Palestine over the years since 1946

Angelina Jolie — said “Gaza has a population of over 2 million people (half of them children), who have lived under a severe blockade for nearly two decades, on top of decades of displacement and statelessness. The few aid trucks that are entering are a fraction of what is needed (and was delivered daily before the present conflict), and the bombings are causing desperate new humanitarian needs daily. The denial of aid, fuel and water is collectively punishing a people. Humanity demands an immediate ceasefire. Palestinian and Israeli lives – and the lives of all people globally – matter equally.”

Kid Cudi — attended pro-Palestine protests, and said "I can't imagine the pain people are feeling. Seeing their entire neighborhoods bombed, losing generations of family members, parents crying over their children's lifeless bodies, communities turning into mass graves, people digging through the rubble of their homes in hopes of finding remains of their loved ones - a pain no one should have to go through. [...] I stand with the people of Palestine as they demand an immediate ceasefire and an end to the ongoing genocide. Free Palestine!!"

It cannot co-exist with blockades, embargoes, or with 2.2 million people, half of which are children, trapped with no hope of escape or political recourse. It cannot co-exist with murdered journalists, bombed hospitals, or years of protesters being shot and killed at the border. It cannot co-exist with illegal settlements, segregated roads, and the silent, imperial chill that settles over the gaps in the violence - the unspoken geopolitical consensus that a group of people need to unflinchingly accept permanent subjugation and occupation."

The letter said: "Half of Gaza's two million residents are children, and more than two thirds are refugees and their descendants being forced to flee their homes. […] As of this writing more than 6,000 bombs have been dropped on Gaza in the last 12 days — resulting in one child being killed every 15 minutes. Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of food, water, electricity, medicine and safe access to hospitals, following days of air strikes and cuts to all supply routes. […] The humanitarian situation has reached lethal lows, and yet all reports point to further attacks. Compassion — and international law — must prevail."

Their joint statement said: "Gaza is already a society of refugees and the children of refugees. Now, in their hundreds of thousands, bombarded from air, sea and land, Palestinians whose grandparents were forced out of their homes at the barrel of a gun are again being told to flee – or face collective punishment on an unimaginable scale. Dispossessed of rights, described by Israel’s minister of defense as “human animals”, they have become people to whom almost anything can be done. Our governments are not only tolerating war crimes but aiding and abetting them."

This letter said: "We call for an immediate and unconditional cessation of Israeli violence against Palestinians. We call for an end to the support provided by global powers to Israel and its military; especially the United States, which now provides Israel $3.8 billion annually without condition. We ask all people of conscience to exercise their agency to help dismantle the apartheid regime of our time. We ask governments that are enabling this crime against humanity to apply sanctions, to mobilize levers of international accountability, and to cut trade, economic and cultural relations. We call on activists, and especially our peers in the arts, to exercise their agency within their institutions and localities to support the Palestinian struggle for decolonization to the best of their ability. Israeli apartheid is sustained by international complicity, it is our collective responsibility to redress this harm." and more

***BOYCOTT THESE COMPANIES***

There is also currently a boycott against Starbucks, in addition to the official BDS boycott list, because the former CEO and current board member is a Zionist, and because Starbucks fired a bunch of employees for being pro-Palestine, and after the Starbucks Workers United union made a statement saying they support Palestine, the company made a big stink about how the union "doesn't represent the company's values" (and that's in addition to the other ways they mistreat employees, and all this is besides the fact they're documented using child slave labor in producing their coffee beans and chocolate). Starbucks also regularly donates to the IOF, just like the other boycotted companies.

a thread of ways to support Palestine

text CEASEFIRE to 51905

combat propaganda online, in person, or even by just having a conversation with one person — do not underestimate the power of word of mouth. tell everyone you know how you feel about Palestine; don't just read about it and despair while doing nothing. being on the right side of history has never been popular or easy.

Continue spreading Palestinian voices. Do not stop sharing voices from Palestine. Do not spread hopelessness or anything about parts of Gaza being "successfully" ethnically cleansed. We owe Palestinians our resilience and our hope that Palestine WILL be free, within our lifetimes.

Do not quote or reply to pro-"Israel" accounts on Twitter. "Israel" is paying people to spread propaganda and lies — do not make their job easier. Do not give them attention or views. Do not let them succeed in their goal. Just block them and boost Palestinians, or screenshot them if you absolutely must react/respond to what they're saying.
