Rachel Zegler Criticizes Trump on Social Media

Rachel Zegler, the star of Disney's upcoming 'Snow White' live-action remake, has issued an apology following intense backlash over her Instagram posts criticizing President-elect Donald Trump and his supporters after the 2024 election results. In her initial posts, she expressed her dismay at Trump's victory, stating that it led to a world filled with fear and anger, and went as far as to wish that Trump and his supporters 'never know peace'. Zegler's comments have sparked concern regarding potential repercussions for the Disney film's release, as her remarks could alienate some potential viewers. She acknowledged that her emotions got the best of her and emphasized the importance of contributing positively to the discourse. The comments have drawn parallels to previous instances where Disney faced criticism for employee statements on social media, raising questions about the company's response to Zegler's statements. Despite her apology, the incident highlights the intersection of celebrity, politics, and public sentiment in today's media landscape.
