On the evening of November 8, 2016, a lot of people were devastated to find out the results of the presidential election. Donald Trump was thought to be way behind Hillary Clinton but he surprised many American citizens and even other countries. Due to this, some celebrities are planning to boycott the inauguration of Donald Trump's presidency.

The day after the inauguration which is set for Jan. 20., citizens plan to flood the streets of Washington D.C. for a Women's March. About 100,000 people are expected to join the protest. Female stars such as Cher, America Ferrera, Scarlett Johansson, Chelsea Handler, Debra Messing, Julianne Moore, Katy Perry, Amy Schumer, and more are expected to show up and take over the Women's March.

Chelsea Handler wrote a piece on the subject and stated, "One of the saddest things about November 8, aside from the very presence of Donald Trump on the ballot as a major party American presidential candidate, were the women of America who somehow managed to vote for Donald Trump," following with, "We don’t just have a problem with men supporting women in this country; we have a problem with women supporting women."

CNN exit polls recored that more than 52 percent of white women and 25% of latino women voted for Donald Trump.

Cher also had much to say on twitter about the presidential results.

She has posted countless updates expressing her feelings about trump. She's even had some backlash for it. Piers Morgan, born in England and known for being a judge on America's got talent, was one of the more obvious ones. He replied to Cher's posts on twitter telling her to "pipe down" and called her an "absurd specimen".

Other celebrities such as Mark Ruffalo, Alec Baldwin, and a Michael Moore have organized a March of their own, a guys' march, outside of trump tower the same night of the inauguration.

Some say celebrity protesting wont do much while others are hopeful that they will have a larger impact on the American people.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
