The 83rd Golden Globe Awards have begun, and many fans are still reeling from seeing their favourite faces on the silver screen making their way down the red carpet.
It didn't take long for viewers to notice several celebrities donning a special 'Be Good' and 'ICE Out' pin.
Those seen wearing the pin included Natasha Lyonne, Mark Ruffalo and Wanda Sykes, and they wore the accessory in response to Wednesday’s shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, as well as the New Year’s Eve killing of LA local Keith Porter by an off-duty ICE agent.
Organised by a group of industry professionals, the ACLU-endorsed #BeGood campaign intends to remind people 'to be good to one another in the face of such horror – to be a good citizen, neighbour, friend, ally and human'.

"The #BeGood campaign is launching following reports that 2025 was one of ICE’s deadliest year in two decades, and in response to the current administration’s $100 million wartime recruitment campaign aimed at expanding enforcement capacity," a statement from the ACLU reads.
It continues: "For the past year, the Trump administration has been stretching federal power to punish and intimidate communities, often by turning immigrants into scapegoats and using the Department of Homeland Security as the tip of the spear.
"ICE is not making our communities safer. They are bringing chaos into our streets, and families, immigrants and US citizens alike, pay the price."
Good, 37, was shot dead by ICE agents on Wednesday (7 January), after it was claimed she was 'blocking the street' with her car while they carried out an operation in Minnesota city.
Footage of the incident appeared to show an officer confronting Good in her car before firing several shots into the vehicle as it started to move.
Her mother, Donna Ganger, confirmed her daughter’s identity to The Minnesota Star-Tribune just hours after the shooting unfolded.
She said she was 'probably terrified' and, referring to protesters challenging ICE agents, said she's 'not part of anything like that at all'.
Ganger said: "Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. She was extremely compassionate.
"She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”
Accounts of what actually happened have been conflicting, with Trump administration officials describing the shooting as an act of self-defence, claiming Good had engaged in 'domestic terrorism'.
President Donald Trump has defended ICE, claiming on Truth Social that Good was an 'agitator' and the ICE officer was 'violently' ran over by her.
He wrote: “The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self-defence.
"Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital."
However, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara told CNN that no one else had been hurt other than Good.
Tricia McLaughlin, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, added: “Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponised her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism."
She added: “An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers."
