Celebrities on the Oscars 2022 red carpet didn’t just wow with their fashion; some sent an important message. More than a handful of stars showed their support for Ukrainian refugees with blue ribbons and accessories in the colors of the Ukrainian flag.
Benedict Cumberbatch, who’s nominated for the best actor award for his role in The Power of the Dog, donned a pin on his tuxedo lapel in support of Ukrainian refugees. He has spoken out in support of Ukrainian people before, so it wasn’t too surprising to see him continue his advocacy on the red carpet.
Jamie Lee Curtis showed her support for Ukrainian refugees by wearing a blue ribbon wrapped around one of her fingers. “The ribbon is about the refugee crisis,” the Halloween actor shared with AP News.
Tyler Perry also wore a support ribbon. In his case, the colors were similar to those of the Ukrainian flag.
