It has been a week since Donald Trump declared victory over Vice President Harris in the 2024 presidential election. While many celebrities have shared their thoughts On the president-elect, some have apparently remained remarkably silent.

In the weeks leading up to the election, stars like Oprah Winfrey, Taylor SwiftJennifer Lopez, George Clooney, Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Leonardo DiCaprio and more expressed their support for Harris and encouraged fans to get out and vote. However, since Trump’s victory, the radio silence from these particular stars says it all, says public relations expert Doug Eldridge.

“There are a variety of reasons why that could be the case,” Eldridge, founder of Achilles PR, told Fox News Digital. “Strategically speaking, if it had been closer, you might hear more fervent rebukes and calls to ‘resist’ from the celebrity class. Yet Trump dominated the Electoral College and won the popular vote. Voters, which is synonymous of ‘fans’ ‘ in this case, spoke loud and clear. Partisan celebrities might have lost the election, but they can’t afford to isolate themselves and lose their fans too.”
