White House Dismisses Hollywood Exodus Fleeing U.S.

Steven Cheung was reacting to news of the latest A-Lister heading for pastures green across the Pond.

The White House doesn’t care that Hollywood stars are fleeing Donald Trump—and America as a whole—to live in the U.K. and Ireland. White House communications director Steven Cheung responded to a request for comment from the Daily Beast on the ongoing exodus, which has seen the likes of Ellen DeGeneres and Game of Thrones’ Sophie Turner leave. Meanwhile, House of Cards star Robin Wright this weekend revealed she’s glad she’s in the U.K. and not the U.S. because America is a “s--tshow.” Asked if the administration had anything to say about high-profile stars taking flight, Cheung simply sent an emoji of a waving hand, an apparent sign of disregard for those leaving. Golden Globe winner Wright’s move to the U.K. has seen her rent Airbnbs around the Chiltern Hills, a scenic spot in the northwest of London’s commuter belt. The thrice-divorced Forest Gump star is understood to have found love there with a British architect, Henry Smith, per The Times. Courtney Love, the former partner of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, is meanwhile seeking British citizenship after hopping across the pond.
