Celebrities Flee Red States and the United States

Celebrities are every day people just like the rest of us. They too have felt the need to either flee a red state or even flee the country altogether.

Rosie O’Donnell announced she has moved to Ireland and is working on obtaining Irish citizenship. She and her 12 year old moved just before Trump was sworn into office. O’Donnell said she would consider returning to America when “it’s safe” and all citizens have “equal rights.”

In a Facebook post yesterday, drag queen Trinity “The Tuck” Taylor has fled Florida for Los Angeles. She stated “Just sold my house in Orlando and making the move at the end of the month! Time to get out of a red state. Too much anxiety in Fl.”

Other celebs who have stated they want to flee the United States, whether serious or thinking about it, are Sharon Stone, Cher, Raven-Symone, America Ferrera, Minnie Driver, Whoopi Goldberg, Cardi B, and even Elon Musk’s trans daughter Vivian Wilson. Ellen DeGeneres is among those who have moved.

While many celebrities have the privilege to come and go as they please with little effect on their finances, there are still options for every day citizens to make that move to another state or leave the country. You can find some helpful resources at FleeRedStates.com.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have reportedly left the country following Donald Trump’s election

This blog is originally appeared at LGBTQ Nation.


Sources claim the couple decided to “get the hell out” after Kamala Harris lost.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have reportedly relocated to England following Donald Trump’s election victory.

The couple has settled in the Cotswolds, a scenic area in Southwest England known for attracting celebrities, according to sources speaking to TMZ. While they had already purchased the property prior to the election, the election results reportedly pushed them to “get the hell out” of the country right away. They are also putting their Montecito, California home up for sale.

DeGeneres was a strong supporter of Kamala Harris, sharing her enthusiasm on social media when Harris launched her campaign. She posted, “There’s nothing more powerful than a woman whose time has come!!” and expressed excitement, saying she “can’t wait” for Harris to become “our next president.”

When Taylor Swift endorsed Harris, jokingly calling herself a “childless cat lady” in response to Vice President-elect JD Vance’s derogatory remarks about women, DeGeneres shared the post with the caption, “This childless cat lady couldn’t agree more.”

DeGeneres also shared a 2018 interview she had with Kamala Harris on her show, along with a clip from Michelle Obama’s speech in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she urged people to vote for Harris.

The comedian recently released what she has called her final stand-up performance, Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval on Netflix, in which she addresses the allegations made against her by former employees regarding a toxic work environment.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show began to unravel near the end of its 19-year run when accusations of widespread abuse surfaced. Two explosive Buzzfeed News reports detailing the toxic workplace led to an investigation by Warner Bros., the show’s producer, and DeGeneres’ own Very Good Productions. As a result, three top producers were fired.

However, the house-cleaning and DeGeneres’ poorly received on-air apology were not enough to save the multiple Emmy-winning show. She signed off for the final time in May 2022 with her signature “Be kind” farewell.

Despite her efforts to make amends in the Netflix special, former employees have criticized it as a display of evasion and self-deception.
