The Writers Guild of America is currently on strike as they seek better compensation and other concessions from studios and streamers. On Monday night before the contract expired and the strike became official, several celebrities on the Met Gala red carpet spoke of their support for the guild that has more than 11,000 members. “Everything changed with streaming and everyone needs to be compensated for their work,” actress Amanda Seyfried told Variety on the red carpet. “It’s f***ing easy.
I support my whole staff.” “Abbott Elementary” star and creator Quinta Brunson shared the guild’s statement on the strike on Instagram. She also spoke on the Met red carpet about being a member of the guild. Others also took to social media to offer support. “Writers are ESSENTIAL. I stand with the @WGAWest,” actress Yvette Nicole Brown tweeted. “They deserve what they have been asking for. I pray the producers go back to the table with a deal they can say yes to.
