EBN- In a scene that caught the audience’s attention, the Australian-British actor Guy Pearce appeared with the slogan “Free Palestine” on his chest during the 2025 Oscar ceremony.
Famous actor wears ‘Free Palestine’ pin at Oscars in a striking solidarity move.
The pin, which is shaped like a white dove carrying a golden branch, reflects a message of peace and solidarity with the Palestinian cause.
Ahead of the 2025 Oscars, a galaxy of stars began arriving on the red carpet to take photos before entering the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, California, where Pierce shone wearing a pin bearing Palestinian symbolism.
“This is the least we can do, and I always focus on trying to recognize Palestine and give it as much support as possible because it desperately needs it,” Peres said.
During his career, Pierce has been known for highlighting humanitarian issues during the Algerian season, as he has worn different pins that express various global humanitarian issues.
The actor stressed that he always makes sure to use his platform to highlight issues that deserve attention.
The move comes at a critical time, as Israel earlier on Sunday announced the suspension of all food and other humanitarian supplies into the Gaza Strip, further exacerbating the suffering of the civilian population in the besieged enclave.
It is noteworthy that the 97th Academy Awards hosted a group of stars who flocked to the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, California, to attend the prestigious annual event.
While everyone was focused on the awards and celebrations, Guy Pearce chose to make the Palestinian issue a strong presence through simple but profound symbolism.
