AceShowbiz - Ariana Grande has openly supported fans feeling the weight of Donald Trump's election victory. Taking to her Instagram Story, Grande expressed, "Holding the hand of every person who is feeling the immeasurable heaviness of this outcome today."

The message reflects her enduring commitment to social causes, particularly LGBTQ+ rights. On International Transgender Day of Visibility in 2022, she pledged to match donations up to $1.5 million to the Protect & Defend Trans Youth Fund. Additionally, she has contributed significantly to reproductive rights organizations and participated in various benefit concerts, signaling her proactive approach to advocacy.

Grande was not alone in her sentiments. Selena Gomez shared a poignant quote by feminist Audre Lorde, "I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own," adding her thoughts, "My heart is heavy today." Echoing these emotions, Billie Eilish labeled Trump's win as "a war on women," a statement consistent with her vocal stance on reproductive rights.

Cardi B, known for her active support of Harris, expressed her frustration vividly. "We need a Hail Mary," she declared as Trump's lead grew. Following the election, she posted a heartfelt message to Harris, appreciating her integrity and the inspiration she provided to women of color. Cardi B stated, "You really wanted better for ALL of us! This may not mean as much but I am so proud of you!"

The election outcome also stirred reactions from other celebrities. Bette Midler quoted journalist H.L. Mencken's scathing remarks, while Christina Applegate lamented about the future of women's rights. Dawn O'Porter and Lili Reinhart expressed their heartbreak and support for sexual assault survivors who had come forward against Trump. Meanwhile, John Cusack conveyed his deep frustration, calling the result a sign of "deep nihilism."

Wendell Pierce emphasized the long-term impact on the Supreme Court, and Oscar winner Viola Davis lauded Harris's bravery in her campaign. Even author Stephen King contributed a poignant thought about the fragility of democracy.
