The Celebs That Did NOT Approve Of Meryl Streep's Speech
Posted on January 11, 2017 by Megan Pustetto
Meryl Streep used her 2017 Golden Globes acceptance speech to condemn US President-elect Donald Trump.
And while she seemed to win over the room of Hollywood A-listers with her powerful rhetoric, some were less than impressed with her political push.
Footage of actors Vince Vaughn and Mel Gibson during her speech has emerged, and their faces really say it all.
While other members of the audience applauded Meryl throughout, Mel, who is a known Republican, and Vince, a Libertarian, instead had very stern looks splashed across their faces during the speech.
And the Twitter reactions were priceless…

During her explosive six-minute speech, Meryl took aim at Trump for mocking a disabled reporter, bullying and inciting disrespect and violence.
“That instinct to humiliate, when it's modeled by someone in a public platform, it filters down into everyone's life because it gives permission for others to do the same,” Meryl said.
“Disrespect invites disrespect, violence incites violence. When the powerful use their position to bully others we all lose.”
Trump responded to Meryl’s harsh words on Monday, by taking aim at the actress on Twitter.
