Celebrities Deliver Emotional Messages on Golden Globes Red Carpet

This year’s Golden Globe Awards saw fashion used as a form of protest and support, with celebrities advocating political and social causes through their attire.

Mark Ruffalo, Natasha Lyonne, and Wanda Sykes wore “Be Good” pins in a protest against US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and calls for more humane immigration policies.

Be Good is a campaign started by several non-profit organisations, including the American Civil Liberties Union, to honour Renee Macklin Good and Keith Porter.

"Also reminding us what it means to be good to one another in the face of such horror – to be a good citizen, neighbour, friend, ally and human," they said.

Good was killed by an ICE agent during an operation in Minneapolis last week, while Porter was killed by an off-duty ICE agent in Northridge, California, on New Year's Eve.

Ruffalo is well known for his activism, often using red carpets to advocate causes ranging from Gaza to climate change. He's nominated for Best Actor in a Drama for the HBO show Task.

Lyonne, meanwhile, is nominated for Best Actress for a Comedy or Musical for her role in the TV show Poker Face.

Elsewhere, Hannah Einbinder wore an "Artists4Ceasefire" pin, part of a campaign launched by members of the creative community calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The red enamel badge has become a visible symbol of solidarity at awards shows and cultural events over the past year.

Einbinder, an outspoken critic of Israel's policies on Palestine, also wore the pin at the Critics Choice Awards last week.

“I feel like it is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the State of Israel, because our religion and our culture is such an important and long-standing institution that is really separate to this sort of ethno-nationalist state,” she said at the Emmy Awards last year, where she won the Best Supporting Actress of "Hacks".
