America votes: How celebrities are reacting to Trump's decisive victory
CTV
Celebrities from Hulk Hogan to Ariana Grande are sharing their reactions to the U.S. election, which will see Donald Trump return to the White House.
In the runup to the U.S. presidential election, American celebrities from Hulk Hogan to Taylor Swift offered their support for former president Donald Trump and Vice-President Kamala Harris.
While Harris may have earned more big-name endorsements than her rival, it appears that did little to sway the minds of many American voters, who showed up overwhelmingly in favour of the Republican candidate.
Although some notable voices like Swift have remained silent, here is what celebrities are saying about Trump's decisive victory:
The retired wrestling star endorsed Trump at the Republican National Convention in July, where he theatrically ripped off his shirt to reveal a red Trump tank top. In a post-election Instagram message, the Hulkster urged unity.
"This election season showed just how much we all care about where this country's headed," he wrote. "Now that the votes are in, let's remember — it doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican, we're all real Americans. It's time to come together, talk with our neighbours and focus on what unites us. We all love this country, and we're all in for building a better future."
The Star Wars actor and longtime Democrat had previously urged voters to avoid the "orange side" – a poke at Trump's complexion.
"They say we get the leaders we deserve," Hamill wrote in a post-election tweet. "Either that has just been disproven, or this is not the America we all thought we were living in."
