The crazy night of the Oscars is finally here and Jimmy Kimmel is all set to take over the stage as we speak. He makes his entry alongside Margot Robbie’s Barbie as he edits himself in a scene from the movie as his entry piece. But while the stage was warming up for many talented people to walk up on it to take their trophies, the red carpet drama was one that led to too many heartwarming moments including Ryan Gosling walking the red carpet with his family, and Messi the dog from Anatomy Of A Fall gets his own seat at the Oscars 2024. But there was also a conversation for a cause as Billie Eilish and a list of other actors walked the carpet wearing a pin asking for a ceasefire. 

Billie Eilish And Others Wear Ceasefire Pins

In a very brave move, it was recently reported that 400 artists from the Hollywood entertainment industry signed a letter to Joe Biden by Artists4Ceasefire. Turns out some of them have now decided to bring their battle to the red carpet and set an example with a silent protest that asked for a ceasefire in Palestine as the distress continues to create havoc and take the lives of innocent, leaving the ones alive in a mess. Billie Eilish and a series of actors walked the carpet with pins asking for a ceasefire.

Artists like Billie Eilish, Finneas O’Connell, Mark Ronson, Ava DuVernay, and Poor Things actor Ramy Youssef were spotted wearing the red pin that stood for ceasefire as per Artists4Ceasefire on the red carpet. The move is being applauded by the netizens who are in support of the cause. Eilish is one of the prominent names known for using her voice. The singer is also nominated for the Oscars tonight. Apart from them, Mark Ruffalo, who is also nominated tonight is also a prominent voice who has been vocal about his opinion about the conflict.

Protestors In Hollywood

Meanwhile, in Hollywood, thousands of protestors got on the street to ask for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war. The protestors caused traffic and a delay for the vans carrying celebrities to reach the venue. The videos from the protest have now made it to the internet. 

The Oscars 2024 has a lot of exciting things coming up. There are legendary filmmakers, iconic actors, and some great artists who are all competing with each other for the golden trophy. It will be exciting to see who wins what on the prestigious night. For more information on this and everything else from the Oscars 2024 and the world of streaming and films, stay tuned to OTTplay.
