Kim Kardashian West Just Responded to the Immigration Ban in the Best Way Possible + 12 More Celeb Reactions

Kim Kardashian West has only rather recently returned to social media (perhaps with a hidden message on Instagram?) since her Paris robbery last October (during which she recently revealed she was nearly nude). But as the daughter of a famous third generation Armenian American, she wasn’t about to be silent with regard to President Trump’s latest orders on immigration, joining others in speaking out on social media.

Offering up a single Tweet with a powerful message, Kim stuck to the facts in her response, showcasing a graphic with unnatural causes of American deaths.

At the very bottom of the list was Islamic jihadist immigrants — the very group President Trump claims to be protecting America from with his order — coming in at two deaths, followed with far right-wing terrorists at five and all Islamic jihadist terrorists (including those that are already US citizens) at nine.

Much higher were out-there causes such as lawn mowers (69) falling out of bed (737 — what!) and finally, the risk of being shot by another American right here at home: 11,737. Yikes!

She wasn’t alone in offering her thoughts: Plenty of other celebs joined her, as well. See how they’re reacting to the news below.

It's not quite time to press play on our annual The Holidayrewatch (unless, like me, you consider all year to be The Holiday season), but Cameron Diaz' new Netflix movie has the best connection to the iconic romance. In Back in Action, Diaz plays a CIA operative called, well, back into action with her husband (played by Jamie Foxx) after their cover gets blown. While this seems like a far cry from the early 2000s rom-coms she's known for, it actually reminded me of the 2005 flick for one simple reason: her The Holiday character Amanda is a movie trailer editor, putting together action-packed previews (like for a fictional Lindsay Lohan x James Franco movie), and this time, it's her turn to be the hero! We haven't seen Cameron Diaz star in a movie since 2014's Annie, a movie that also starred Jamie Foxx, meaning Back in Action will be her first role in 10 years! Here's everything you need to know about Back in Action.

"People were so f*cking mean about her," Ben Affleck says on The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcastin 2021. "Sexist, racist. Ugly, vicious sh*t was written about her in ways that if you wrote it now you would literally be fired for saying those things you said...Now it's like, she's lionized and respected for the work she did, where she came from, what she accomplished — as well she f*cking should be!"

"It was so painful after we broke up," Jennifer tells Apple Music's Zane Lowe in 2024. "Once we called off that wedding 20 years ago, it was the biggest heartbreak of my life. I honestly felt like I was going to die. It sent me on a spiral for the next 18 years where I just couldn't get it right. But now, 20 years later, it does have a happy ending. It has the most would-never-happen-in-Hollywood ending."

May 15, 2024 — Rumors Swirl About Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck's Alleged Divorce

Though Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have reconnected, there have rumors that their marriage may be in trouble. A source alerted InTouch Weekly that there have been obvious signs that something is wrong for a while.

"The writing is on the wall – it’s over," the source claims before saying, "They’re headed for a divorce – and for once, [Ben’s] not to blame!" The source believes the two have a lot of love for each other, but that they're jus too different to be together.

TMZ has also reported that Ben seems like he hasn't been living at home — yikes! He was photographed leaving going to and coming from a L.A. home without Jennifer. It's also being reported that he's been allegedly spending the night there.

But, TMZ also pointed out that the pair are still wearing their wedding rings so it's hard to say if there's any merit to the breakup rumors. Until Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck actually give a statement, I'm going to cross my fingers and hope for the best! And we're not the only ones — 13 Going on 30's Jennifer Garner (who was married to Ben Affleck from 2005-2015) “is encouraging Ben to work on his marriage to Jen,” according to an Us Weeklysource. “She fully supports their relationship and wants nothing more than for him to be happy.”

Also, Jennifer Lopez wants us to really mind our business. People reported than an actress was not feeling a pushy reporter's question about her marriage and didn't have a problem letting them know. She was promoting Atlas with her co-stars when said reporter asked, "Is your divorce with Ben Affleck real? These rumors?"

Though her co-star Simu Liu expressed his disdain for the questions first, Jennifer quickly said," You know better than that." This lets us know that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are well aware that people are talking about their marriage.

Image via Michael Loccisano/Getty Images for 20th Century Studios

Still, this hasn't stopped insiders from talking about what's going on behind closed doors. One even reached out to People to say, "They’re still living separately," and "She’s back in L.A. for tour rehearsals. She seems okay. She’s very focused on work." The outlet even reported that the couple are in fact living apart and have been seen on several occasions without each other.

While I know some people could care less, I remember when Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck first started dating so to see them struggling again feels a little painful. I'm trying to keep hope alive, but they ultimately know what's going on in their relationship. If they do choose to separate, that's a choice we'll all have to respect.

May 31, 2024 — Jennifer Lopez Cancels Her "This Is Me" Tour

I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time…”

June 21, 2024 — Ben Affleck Discusses Family Life With Jennifer Lopez

In a newly released interview with Kevin Hart, Ben Affleck showed a rare vulnerability that we don't often see. The two chatted about several things during the Season 4 premiere of Hart to Heart, but it was Ben's admission that he has "resting hard face" (via Entertainment Tonight) that caught our attention.

Though there have been theories about why Ben often looks like he'd rather be somewhere else than dealing with paparazzi, he made it clear why he's not always smiling when the cameras are on him. "I also don't like a lot of attention...people see me [and] they're like, ‘Well, this dude always mad…’ Because somebody has their camera and sticking to my face.”

Ben even mentioned a time when he, Jennifer, and their kids were trying to make it to a play while walking through Times Square. Though he knows fans are going to be excited to see them, it's obvious he's not thrilled when their kids are subject to that kind of pandemonium.

"We get out with her, all the kids, through Times Square, and the s--- was like f---in’ bananas...it feels like hundreds of people and now screaming," Ben explained (via People).

Jennifer Lopez celebrated an upcoming birthday milestone this weekend by hosting a party the Ton would've loved to attend. She spared no expense as it's reported she had "horse-drawn carriages" on-site (via Glamour).

August 20, 2024 — Jennifer Lopez Files For Divorce With No Prenup

After months of rumored separation between the two, it seems that Jennifer Lopez has finally filed for divorce from her husband, Ben Affleck, after 2 years of marriage. Many speculated their separation this year, but since Lopez was spotted multiple times with Affleck’s kids, it seemingly put those rumors to rest. But after this filing citing their separation date as April 26, 2024, it seems like any outing was due to those close relationship over the years, and because of Lopez and Affleck’s kids being friends.

TMZ reported about Lopez’s filing, stating that there is “indeed no prenuptial agreement.” This means that they split everything 50/50 from their 2 years of marriage. While TMZ says that the two are not on speaking terms, hopefully the two can seek some peace in this situation in the future!

August 31, 2024 — Jennifer Lopez Is Moving On

She may be heartbroken, but Jennifer Lopez knows the key to getting over an ex is moving on. She cryptically acknowledged her eventful summer with the largest picture carousel I've seen on Instagram in years and looked great in most of her candid shots.

She kept her caption lighthearted by writing, "Oh, it was a summer" and was essentially met with rounds of applause from fans. One person even called her, "AN UNBOTHERED Queen!"

Even if that only scratches the surface of her emotions, it's clear Jennifer believes "Everything is unfolding in divine order" per the second picture in her carousel.

We’re always on the hunt for the best pieces of Gilmore Girls merch, but when I saw the adorable new target fall decor, I IMMEDIATELY started thinking about what Lorelei and Rory would want in 2024. Because I have no doubt that the Gilmore girls would be all over Target today (and would make frequent trips to Hartford just to look around the store). While Rory's aesthetic leans more cozy & classic academia, Lorelai is eclectic & kitschy modern, and Target has plenty of options for this alternate Gilmore Girls reality — and for any GG fan who prefers low-key merch.

Target

Storied Home Resin Pinecone Bookends

My favorite seasonal decor hack is to switch out my year-round pieces for autumnal versions. And Rory would love keeping her books in order with fall bookends! These bronze resin pinecone bookends offer texture, dimension, and richness to any bookshelf.

Target

Stoneware I Woof You Mug

In honor of Paul Anka, I had to include a mug honoring Woman's Best Friend. Lorelai is the ultimate dog mom, and wouldn't be able to say no to this microwave- and dishwasher-safe design. Especially since it's only $7!

Target

Harvest Fall Leaves Gnome Figurine

Speaking of things Lorelai definitely wouldn't be able to say no to, she would jump at the chance to buy this gnome. While it'd make sense to give it to Babette, I could also see Lorelai keeping it in her home, but moving it to a different location every time Luke or Emily visits.

Target

Wood Ghost Sign Halloween Decorative Sculpture

Stars Hollow's Halloween celebrations strike a balance between spooky and spoofy (and they're never outright horrifying). This cutesy ghost is perfect because it's lightweight AND you can display it with an easel or a cord loop. Talk about versatile!

Target

Ceramic Teal Jack-o-Lantern Face Pumpkin

When it comes to pumpkins and Jack-o-Lanterns, I'm convinced Lorelai would opt for something colorful and goofy like this 5-inch teal pumpkin. The frosted detail also reminds me of snow, which would make Lorelai SO happy.

Target

Medium Glass Pumpkin Figurine

Rory would choose a variety of glass pumpkins in different colors, heights, and shapes! I love how this champagne pumpkin adds the right amount of autumn vibes without overpowering the rest of the decor.

Target

Magnolia and Olive Artificial Wreath

Wreaths aren't just for the holidays! A fall wreath gives the same amount of cozy vibes that every Gilmore Girls episode gives us, and the green + brown leaf combo means it'll go with cool-toned and warm-toned decor palettes! Plus, I know for a fact Emily would love the bow.

Target

Stoneware Salt Cellar

There’s something chic and autumnal about farmhouse decor, which target has PLENTY of. Grabbing a salt cellar that says “salt” on it is exactly the kind of thing Lorelai would buy just because it confuses Luke. This item is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning!

Target

Raised Striped Chunky Knit Throw Blanket

For all those pizza nights with The Donna Reed Show, Lorelai and Rory would absolutely need a nice blanket or two to curl up with. I think Lorelai would totally opt for something comfortable that’s also bright and colorful.

Target

Velvet Oval Shaped Throw Pillow with Tufted Center

And a simple pillow with an interesting shape and interesting fabric? The Gilmore girls would want one for every room!

Target

Preserved Fall Floral Cloche Artificial Grass

As someone who loves scale models and terrariums I'm obsessed with this fall floral cloche! It's so colorful and textured, and it has a sort of controlled chaos that Rory would love. It'll look beautiful on a bedroom shelf or on top of a stack of classic books.

Target

Flower Print Framed Dorm Wall Art

Not a huge fan of the amber-rust-gold fall color palette? If you prefer to march to the beat of your own drum (just like Lorelai!), add a splash of color to your space with an unconventional artwork choice. Who says pink isn't a fall color?
