It's not just Latin singers anymore.
Regardless of ethnic background, more and more celebs are rallying against the recent law passed in Arizona allowing authorities to stop anyone they think may be an illegal immigrant.
Eva Longoria Parker, John Cusack, George Lopez and even Soulja Boy have joined the ranks of Shakira, Ricky Martin and Linda Ronstadt, using Twitter and Facebook to sound off on the issue.
"What is happening? I feel like I am in a time warp," the Desperate Housewives star says, before making sure to point out an aspect of the bill she finds most disturbing. "HB2281 (bill attacking ethnic/raza studies) states that any course, class, instruction, or material may not be primarily designed for pupils of particular ethnic group as determined by the state superintendent of instruction. State aid will be withheld from any school district or charter school that does not comply."
Eva continues with a few comments and responses comparing this treatment to that of Native Americans but brings it all back with three simple words.
"Stop the HATE," she declares.
"Arizona law must be fought by all means," tweets Cusack.
"Went to buy a ARIZONA Iced Tea. They asked me for my documentation. So I Bought HORCHATA instead!" Lopez joked earlier this week. A few days later, he responded, "Hey @drinkarizona I 'profiled you' and I'm sorry it was unconstitutional on my part to assume. I love your product! Thanks."
Of course, he also made a few more serious comments, saying he'd be staying away from the state.
"What's good with this new immigrant law?" wonders the "Crank Dat" rapper.
