I knew more actors would do it but I love that the Rock got in there first.

I love that a lot of the couples put both their names on it and Nicole Kidman, Julia, Oprah and Meryl were all like "It was just me, bitch!"

Also maybe this is mean to say but I knew Clooney would do this. He's been super generous over the years and I remember that story about how he gifted like 5 of his long term buddies a million dollars and the gift tax one Christmas. Those Nesspresso commercials bring in bank!

Clooney has always been known to be generous, so this doesn’t surprise me either.

I noticed the couples thing LOL and was thinking maybe they kept off the names of partners if they aren't actors, but then you have Deborra-lee and Amal and Luciana on there so who knows

Deborra-Lee is an actor...she and Hugh met doing a TV show here in Australia and at that point she was probably the bigger name lol. obviously not now (Jindabyne is the last thing on her CV that i recognise) but it doesnt surprise me that she'd want to show solidarity publicly

I knew she worked in the industry but for some reason I thought she was a producer oop my bad #themoreyouknow

It definitely seems like a certain generation of movie stars did it at the same(ish) time to set an example of sorts.
