\nSome of music\u2019s biggest names took the opportunity to use their platform to protest the efforts of federal agents across the country.
Puerto Rican superstar and this year\u2019s Super Bowl Halftime Show performer Bad Bunny accepted the award for Best M\u00fasica Urbana Album for \u201cDeb\u00ed Tirar M\u00e1s Fotos.\u201d
\u201cBefore I say thanks to God, I\u2019m gonna say, \u2018ICE out‘,\u201d the singer exclaimed. The crowd erupted, giving the singer a standing ovation.
He went on to say immigrants \u201care not savage, we\u2019re not animals, we\u2019re not aliens \u2014 we are humans, and we are Americans.\u201d He urged fans and fellow artists to confront fear and division with love and compassion, a message that seemingly resonated with the crowd.
Justin and Hailey Bieber also made their thoughts known on the issue. The two appeared in coordinating black ensembles with tiny pins affixed to their couture with the words \u201cICE OUT.\u201d
The pins aren\u2019t a new jewelry trend \u2014 they\u2019re part of a growing protest movement by Hollywood elites at major award shows this season aimed at calling attention to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The moment marked one of the couple\u2019s most visible public political gestures yet.
Billie Eilish, Joni Mitchell and Kehlani were also among the stars who wore \u201cICE Out\u201d pins to accessorize their looks.<\/p>\n
