Hillary Clinton had the support of a very large percentage of celebrities and it came as quite a depressing shock to them and many, when she lost to opponent, Donald Trump.
Here’s how some of them reacted when they heard the news of her defeat.
Some were completely despondent and expressed fear for the future of their nation
This is an embarrassing night for America. We’ve let a hatemonger lead our great nation. We’ve let a bully set our course. I’m devastated.

Some didn’t like Bush. Some didn’t like Obama. But this is different. Forget dislike. Many are genuinely fearful now. This is new.

No more book recommendations, politics, or amusing dog pictures for the immediate future. I’m shutting down.

A few expressed their fury
America, you have failed. What the actual fuck. Devastating. I won’t recognize @realDonaldTrump as our president, ever. #dumptrucktrump

Others chose to be positive and encouraged everyone else to do so
We all need to give President-Elect Trump a chance. Support the good. Lobby against what we disagree on. No one is bigger than us all

No one can stop you from being a loving, kind, generous person. No matter who wins we will be okay and find our way back to humanity.

But if there’s one thing they all have in common, it’s that they’re not giving up on hope for peace, equality and love in America

I am scared. I will fight. Trump will not crush my spirit. Hope fuels the fire in my belly to seek the change I want to see in this country

Woke up feeling like I’d had a nightmare. Then started crying again. Mantra: I am not alone, we are not alone.

We woke up
Our eyes are open
We do the good work
Of loving each other everyday
And fight the fight for both the big and the small.— Uzo Aduba (@UzoAduba) November 9, 2016
Be tired. Be mad. Be honest & concerned. But be not afraid. Rest up. Be safe. Come together. Construct. Know your surroundings. Be creative.

I’m taking tonight to grieve for minorities, women, immigrants, muslims & the LGBTQ community but tomorrow I’m waking up ready to fight.

No more fear. Only hopeful optimism. I gonna let love be my guide. All my energy will now go towards protecting the rights of ALL Americans

Some of Hillary’s most outspoken supporters like Beyonce and Jay Z haven’t spoken on the issue yet, so we await theirs.
God bless America.
