US EditionKaty Perry and Other U.S. Celebrities Urge Action Against ICE After Minnesota Shootings
Celebrities including Billie Eilish and Pedro Pascal call for protests and transparency after ICE agents killed two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis, sparking demands to block ICE funding.
- On January 26, 2026, Billie Eilish urged fellow celebrities to speak out about U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after ICU nurse Alex Pretti was fatally shot in Minneapolis.
- Earlier this month, Eilish criticized ICE after Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and she addressed unrest while accepting the 2026 MLK Jr. Beloved Community Award on January 17, 2026.
- Multiple bystander videos suggest Pretti did not draw his weapon and an agent removed a gun from his holster, while Finneas said Pretti was beaten and legally carried the firearm.
- The federal rebuke came as celebrities amplified calls for accountability, with the Department of Homeland Security calling the posts `garbage rhetoric` and artists like Olivia Rodrigo and Bruce Springsteen condemning ICE.
- Reposting a call to abolish ICE, Eilish emphasized 32 people reportedly died in ICE custody last year, adding to growing celebrity activism after multiple Twin Cities deaths.
