Reneé Rapp is making headlines for all the wrong reasons this week after unleashing a profanity-filled tirade against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the current administration, and President Donald Trump, leaving social media in chaos. While performing during her Bite Me tour stop in Portland, the Mean Girls star paused mid-show to deliver an impassioned and expletive-filled message that quickly made its way across the internet.
“Let’s just [expletive] make it abundantly clear,” she shouted into the mic. “[Expletive] ICE, [expletive] this administration, and [expletive] Trump!” Fans in attendance could be heard cheering, but once the clip hit X (formerly Twitter), the tone of the conversation changed dramatically.
Within hours, Rapp’s comments began trending, drawing thousands of responses, many of them harshly critical. One user wrote, “Celebrities who curse institutions like ICE reveal more about cultural immaturity than political awareness. Border enforcement isn’t tyranny, it’s law. Emotion may sell songs, but it doesn’t solve the humanitarian, legal, or national challenges America faces.”
Another chimed in, “Ummm… ok?? Your point? A singer… who probably didn’t graduate past high school? What’s your point dude?? That we should all gather our political wisdom from celebrity singers and actors?” Others were simply baffled, asking, “Who the [expletive] is that?” and “This is a perfect example of why the world is so divided.”
