Pop star Katy Perry has taken her platform to the political front lines, urging her millions of followers to call their U.S. senators and fight a proposed $10 billion funding boost for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — part of a broader spending bill that critics say would pour even more resources into an agency already under fire after deadly clashes with community members. Perry even provided a pre-written letter to make it easier for supporters to act before the January 30 deadline. 
Meanwhile, Billie Eilish used her Instagram stories to pressure fellow celebrities to speak up about ICE and the violent incidents that have ignited protests and public grief across the country — including the shooting deaths of two U.S. citizens in Minnesota that have fueled nationwide outrage and demands for accountability. Her blunt call to peers — “hey my fellow celebrities u gonna speak up? or” — has resonated with fans and activists alike. 
And comedy star Megan Stalter made headlines for a different reason, announcing she’s deleting her TikTok account after claiming the platform wouldn’t allow her to upload content critical of ICE — a move she framed as resistance against perceived censorship and a stand for free expression. Critics point out that technical issues may also be at play, but Stalter’s departure highlights growing frustration among creators pushing back against powerful institutions. With celebrity activism turning up the heat, will public pressure shift the political debate or deepen divisions over immigration enforcement?
