More than 250 celebrity leaders from across multiple industries -- including Olivia Rodrigo, Harry Styles, Pedro Pascal, and Addison Rae -- have signed a full-page Planned Parenthood ad calling for support of the organization's lifesaving healthcare initiatives in response to threats under President Donald Trump.
Rolling Stone exclusively reveals the list of signees behind the "I'm for Planned Parenthood" ad, which runs Wednesday in The New York Times.
Following the "I'm for Planned Parenthood" sentence structure, the ad reads: "Because I'm for freedom... because I'm for healthcare... because I'm for you and me -- not the government -- deciding what care we need and where we can get it."
Megan Thee Stallion, Billie Eilish, Meghan Trainor, Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, Gracie Abrams, Sara Bareilles, Sheryl Crow, and Cyndi Lauper are among the musicians signing the ad. Scarlett Johansson, Laverne Cox, Cara Delevingne, Zoey Deutch, Melissa McCarthy, Natasha Lyonne, Christina Ricci, Alfre Woodard, Alexandra Shipp, and Julianne Nicholson led the list of actors standing behind the letter.
"Trans people need health care providers they can trust, just like everyone else. Planned Parenthood health centers are a lifeline for so many across this country who rely on them for inclusive care," Laverne Cox said in a statement. "I'm for Planned Parenthood because they provide a space for queer people to feel safe, supported, and affirmed in who they truly are."
Karlie Kloss, Shonda Rhimes, Gloria Steinem, Trixie Mattel, Roxane Gay, Jenna Lyons, Drew Afualo, Ilana Glazer, Nikki Glaser, Mara Brock Akil, Laurie Simmons, and Aja Naomi King are also included as signees. (See the full list of signees here.)
"Every day, Planned Parenthood health center staff open the doors of health centers to ensure patients -- no matter who they are -- can get access to the essential health care they need. Planned Parenthood health centers play an irreplaceable role in our health system," said Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, in a press statement. "I applaud these cultural changemakers and everyone across the country who have said, loud and clear: I'm for Planned Parenthood."
The advertisement includes how one in four people in the U.S. have visited Planned Parenthood centers for cancer screenings, STI testing, abortion, gender-affirming care, and other needs.
"I'm incredibly grateful to see so many bold, influential voices declare their support for Planned Parenthood. Having spoken to many of them, I know this is personal," Caren Spruch, national director for Arts and Entertainment Strategy, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, added. "One in four people in this country have been to Planned Parenthood for essential health care -- including many of these changemakers, their friends, families, and their fans, who have publicly shared their Planned Parenthood stories."
