or ‘Free Palestine’ at Emmy Awards in Los Angeles. Celebrities used their speeches and red-carpet appearances to highlight the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Hannah Einbinder, who won Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for “Hacks,” ended her acceptance speech by saying, “Go Birds, F— ICE and Free Palestine.” Speaking later, she explained that she felt it was her duty to separate her Jewish faith from political actions that cause suffering.
Spanish actor Javier Bardem also drew attention with a strong statement. Wearing a keffiyeh on the red carpet, he denounced the violence in Gaza and declared, “Here I am today denouncing the genocide in Gaza… Free Palestine!”
Comedian and actress Meg Stalter made her message through fashion. She carried a handbag with the words “CEASE FIRE!” written in bold letters, making a clear call for peace.
The activism was not limited to individual appearances. Ahead of the Emmys, nearly 3,900 actors and film industry workers signed a pledge. The statement urged artists to refuse working with institutions accused of supporting genocide or apartheid.
These demonstrations highlight how global entertainment platforms are being used to raise awareness. The war in Gaza continues to inspire calls for peace from public figures. By voicing support, the artists aimed to push governments and industries to take stronger positions.
The Emmy Awards this year became a space where art and activism intersected. Once again, artists call for ‘Free Palestine’ at Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, making the issue one of the defining narratives of the evening.
