  • Bad Bunny, the Album of the Year winner, received a 30-second standing ovation when he urged immigration agents to back down, saying `We’re not savage, we’re not animals, we are not aliens, we are humans, and we are Americans.`

  • Leavitt called the protests `very ironic and frankly sad` as Hollywood celebrities living in gated communities with private security demonize law enforcement, noting no past uproar highlights Hollywood's irony.
