Breaking: Gabrielle Union, Jamie Lee Curtis, and other celebrities quit X for Facebook and threads after Elon Musk joins Donald Trump’s Cabinet.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,” she wrote. “Courage to change the things I can. And the wisdom to know the difference.”

Breaking: Gabrielle Union, Jamie Lee Curtis, and other celebrities quit X for Facebook and threads after Elon Musk joins Donald Trump’s Cabinet.

Although Curtis did not specify her reason for leaving the app, she has been vocal about her dislike for Trump, 78, over the years and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.

Lemon, for his part, gave a bit more insight into why he was leaving the X, formerly known as Twitter, explaining that it has become a toxic place to push political propaganda.

Breaking: Gabrielle Union, Jamie Lee Curtis, and other celebrities quit X for Facebook and threads after Elon Musk joins Donald Trump’s Cabinet.

I’ve loved connecting with all of you on X, but it’s time for me to leave the platform,” the former CNN host, 58, wrote on the site. “I once believed it was a place for honest debate and discussion, transparency, and free speech, but I now feel it does not serve that purpose.”

Lemon cited the platform’s “new terms of service,” which take effect Friday. The fine print states that “all disputes” on X will now be “brought exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas or state courts located in Tarrant County, Texas.”

“As the Washington Post recently reported on X’s decision to change the terms, this ‘ensures that such lawsuits will be heard in courthouses that are a hub for conservatives, which experts say could make it easier for X to shield itself from litigation and punish critics.’ I think that speaks for itself,” he wrote.

The news anchor, who previously sued Musk for fraud, concluded his post by linking to his other social media accounts.

Dozens of celebrities have left X since Musk acquired the platform in 2022, including Elton John, Gigi Hadid, Whoopi Goldberg and Garcelle Beauvais, who announced her exit Tuesday on the Facebook-owned rival platform Threads.

In addition to the droves of Hollywood stars, several companies have also stopped promoting their services on X. Shortly after Musk’s Cabinet appointment, the UK’s Guardian newspaper revealed it was done posting on the platform, as “the benefits of being on X are now outweighed by the negatives.”

This is something we have been considering for a while given the often disturbing content promoted or found on the platform, including far-right conspiracy theories and racism,” the outlet shared in a statement Wednesday.

“The US presidential election campaign served only to underline what we have considered for a long time: that X is a toxic media platform and that its owner, Elon Musk, has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse.”

Trump revealed Tuesday that Musk and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy will head up his new “Department of Government Efficiency,” which aims to “dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures and restructure Federal Agencies.”
