Celebs React to Trump Calling Meryl Streep 'Overrated'
So many celebs are speaking out after Donald Trump took to Twitter to call Meryl Streep an “overrated” actress following her speech at the 2017 Golden Globes.
The legendary actress, who was honored with a lifetime achievement award at the event, called out the President-elect for mocking a disabled reporter and she called it the most memorable performance of the past year.
Donald said that Meryl, a three-time Oscar winner, is “one of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood” and suggested that he should not be attacked by someone who does not know him personally.
Celebs like Emmy Rossum, Chelsea Handler, and more have reacted to the future politician’s tweets. Read below.

I simply can not believe my country "chose" you. I can not believe that you will hold the highest office. You amaze me in the worst way. https://t.co/yRzlfKsrfB

Good to know where your attention is being paid. Oh and Meryl Streep is brilliant. And you know it. Lying petulant child. https://t.co/yRzlfKsrfB

#DonaldTrump wants to weaken our democracy and aid nefarious allies around the world for profit. Everything else is a distraction.

I don't find her acting overrated at all. Humanity at its best last night coming from one of the finest storytellers of our time. https://t.co/vqrDZbzFFb

She is over rated as an actress like Michael Jordon is over rated as a basketball player or Sully as a pilot or Ted Williams at baseball. https://t.co/yDfkSVgBHH

Didn't think it was possible to dislike Trump any more than I already do, until he called Meryl Streep "overrated"…

Trump's response to Meryl Streep–childish, churlish, petulant–is exactly why most Americans fear his presidency. Emtoionally unqualified.

A bigger man would own his mistake and apologize for mocking him. A better president would take criticism without name calling on Twitter. pic.twitter.com/bKTfW0OcnD

Donald, we all saw you mock that disabled reporter. You also mocked Marlee Matlin as "retarded." Just admit you're a bully–and a liar. pic.twitter.com/xaw98h7DnT
