AceShowbiz - MSNBC host Rachel Maddow has just unveiled President Donald Trump's tax returns. And celebrities like Chrissy Teigen, Kumail Nanjiani, Montel Williams, Billy Eichner and Sophia Bush have reacted to the revelation.
"Oh, this is delightful," wrote John Legend's wife when she first heard about the news. The model added, "trump furiously trying to ban television right now." When the tax return was announced, she hilariously tweeted, "dammit. 2 pages!? give me the pee video. #teampeevideo."

Meanwhile, showing his impatience, Kumail said, "This feels like a whole lot of hedging," before adding, "I mean if this doesn't go to him receiving unexplained money from foreign sources, I'm gonna be so angry." The "Silicon Valley" actor then jokingly said, "I think M. Night Shyamalan is about to show up."

The form obtained by MSNBC was provided by financial journalist and biographer David Cay Johnston. Based on the form, it was known that the president included $103 million in deductions. However, the reports didn't include Trump's sources of income as well as his holdings and ownership positions.
