\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tThe Hollywood community widely condemned ABC pulling Jimmy Kimmel\u2019s late night show off the air due to the host\u2019s comments about the killing of controversial pundit Charlie Kirk. The controversy erupted due to comments that Kimmel made in his monologue on Monday, September 15, over conservatives\u2019 reactions to 22-year-old Tyler Robinson being arrested on September [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Seyfried is referring to her second statement about Kirk<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cI don\u2019t want to add fuel to a fire. I just want to be able to give clarity to something so irresponsibly (but understandably) taken out of context,\u201d she wrote at the time. \u201cSpirited discourse \u2014 isn\u2019t that what we should be having?\u201d<\/p>\n
The Long Bright River<\/em> star continued, \u201cWe\u2019re forgetting the nuance of humanity. I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric, and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk\u2019s murder was absolutely disturbing in every way imaginable. No one should have to experience this level of violence. This country is grieving too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we agree on that at least?\u201d<\/p>\n\n![\"GettyImages-2249468815-amanda-seyfried\"](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/GettyImages-2249468815-amanda-seyfried.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")
