The 83rd Golden Globe Awards, held January 11, 2026 at The Beverly Hilton, saw several attendees wear black-and-white pins reading “BE GOOD” and “ICE OUT”—a visible protest message during Hollywood’s biggest red-carpet night.
What the ‘Be Good’ Pins Mean
The pins were worn in tribute to Renée Macklin/Nicole Good, who was reported killed after being shot by an ICE officer in Minneapolis, and also referenced Keith Porter, whose death was also cited in reporting around the campaign. The action is described as part of the #BeGood campaign calling for accountability and highlighting concerns around immigration enforcement.
Who Organized the Campaign
Major coverage describes the campaign as backed or supported by advocacy groups including the ACLU, along with organizations such as Maremoto, MoveOn, National Domestic Workers Alliance, and Working Families Power. AP also reports organizers Nelini Stamp and Jess Morales Rocketto were involved in pushing the pins into Globes-week parties and networks.
Which Celebrities Wore the Pins
According to AP and Entertainment Weekly coverage, stars including Mark Ruffalo, Wanda Sykes, and Natasha Lyonne wore the pins on the red carpet. AP added that Jean Smart and Ariana Grande wore them inside the event.
The Bigger Context
Reports noted that protests were unfolding in the U.S. following Good’s death, and the pins brought that message into a high-visibility cultural moment at the start of awards season.
