Lemon names names of celebrities he wants to see do more, as he say it's 'strangely quiet' amid protests (via toofab)
Saying the young protesters have been"taking the lead" and"stepping into the void and fighting for what's right," Lemon said he had a hard time booking big names to speak out on his show.
"A lot of people I asked to come on this show to talk about this, wealthy celebrities, wealthy political people, 'I can't do it, I'm mad, I don't want people to see me mad it might hurt my business. I'm so upset I had to go to my country house,'" he claimed they told him."Where are you? Why aren't you fighting for these young people?"
"If you are a millionaire or a gazillionaire or a movie star or a politician and you don't step up now, when are you going to do it?" he asked."What are you worried about if you have made a gazillion dollars, you are rich and you are established, why are you afraid of what someone else is going to think about you or your anger?""I want to hear from everyone. I want to hear from the former president, I want to hear from the former first lady," he continued.
