About this listen
Jenna Ortega has had a notably active few days that could prove significant for both her career and public profile. Most prominently, the Wednesday star made headlines today when she publicly declared Palestinian people to be her heroes during a Paris appearance, according to Hurryet Daily News. The 22-year-old actress stated she feels a deep connection with the Palestinian people, praising their persistence in making their voices heard despite global indifference. This politically charged statement quickly went viral across social media platforms, generating both widespread support from fans calling her brave and compassionate, as well as heated online debates.
The timing of these remarks is particularly noteworthy given Ortega's history with Palestinian solidarity. Back in 2023, she notably exited the Scream 7 project after her co-star Melissa Barrera was dismissed for her pro-Palestinian stance, though officially scheduling conflicts with Wednesday season two were cited as the reason for Ortega's departure.
Just days before this political statement, Ortega was spotted at Paris Fashion Week on October 3rd attending the Givenchy show, as captured by Paris Videostars on YouTube. The fashion week appearance suggests she's been in the French capital for several days, possibly combining business with personal appearances.
Her latest comments align her with other high-profile celebrities like Bella Hadid, Susan Sarandon, and Mark Ruffalo who have publicly expressed Palestinian solidarity, but Ortega's statement stands out for its directness and timing during ongoing global tensions. The viral nature of her remarks has thrust her into political discourse in a way that could impact her career trajectory, particularly given Hollywood's often cautious approach to Middle East politics.
Social media reaction has been intense, with supporters flooding comment sections praising her courage while critics question celebrities weighing in on complex geopolitical issues. This development represents a significant moment where Ortega has moved beyond entertainment industry controversies into broader political advocacy, potentially cementing her reputation as an actress willing to take stands on controversial issues regardless of professional consequences. The long-term impact on her career and public image remains to be seen.
