UPDATE, with additional reactions: As Hollywood and New York wake up this morning to confirmation that Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States, the mood among many celebrities is one of deep disappointment, even despair.

Lexi Underwood, star of Little Fires Everywhere and Cruel Summer posted a swatch of data breaking down percentages by demographic, writing “Just so we’re clear… Black women & men, get some rest.”

Actress Viola Davis wrote “Thank you for your bravery @kamalaharris. Thank you for loving America’s promise. I am and will forever be proud

“With deep admiration and profound respect I sincerely THANK YOU Madame Vice President @vp,” Grotesquerie star Niecy Nash posted on Instagram. “You have made us unbelievably proud! May we continue the fight carrying your wisdom, brilliance, determination, and joy in our hearts and mind.”

“It’s a war on women,” singer songwriter Billie Eilish wrote on her Instagram story.

Bette Midler, also a frequent social media poster and staunch opponent of Trump, seems to have deleted her X account after posting a quote from H.L. Mencken:

Mia Farrow, the longtime actress, current Broadway performer and Kamala Harris supporter, tweeted a simple note – “Looks like he will win. God help us.” – above a photo of Vladimir Putin.

On Instagram, Jamie Lee Curtis posted a lengthy message (read it in its entirety below), predicting “a more restrictive, some fear draconian time. Many fear their rights will be impeded and denied. Many, minority groups and young people will be afraid. Gay and trans people will be more afraid. We know that many women will now find it difficult to get the reproductive healthcare that they need and deserve. For all those people there will be those who will help you. Me included.
