As celebrities pulled up to the Oscars 2024 red carpet, many wore red pins to signify a call for an Israel-Gaza cease-fire.

Billie Eilish, Mark Ruffalo, Ava DuVernay and Finneas O’Connell were among the stars making a statement at this year’s Academy Awards. This comes after more than 400 members of the Hollywood entertainment industry signed a letter to President Joe Biden via the organization Arists4ceasefire in an effort to end the violence taking place on the Gaza strip.

“We ask that, as President of the United States, you and the US Congress call for an immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Gaza and Israel before another life is lost,” the letter read.
