Dozens of celebrities, if not all, have used their platforms on social networks to raise awareness of followers about measures taken and social distancing. Idris Elba spoke at length about his positive diagnosis. Mel Brooks and his son urged people to stay away from each other. Arnold Schwarzenegger advised staying home.
Vanessa Hudgnes, on the other hand, decided to use Instagram to say, "eh, things are happening." In an Instagram Live on March 16, Vanessa said the measures taken to keep the pandemic under control could be implemented by July:
"By July it's a big fool. I'm sorry, but it's a virus, I understand. I respect it. At the same time, if we all get infected, people will die. Which is terrible, but what are you doing? I do not know. Maybe I shouldn't talk about it. "
What a horrible and heartless message for you to share with the younger people who look up to you @VanessaHudgens https://t.co/p0vIekdigP

It is perhaps justified by the fact that the actress recently separated from her boyfriend of eight years, Austin Butler. That is why he suffered the most from Coachella's postponement.
Vanessa addressed the statement in an Instagram Story on March 17: ?I'm locked in the house and I hope you do the same. Stay home and take care of yourself. No joke about this situation. I am at home. Stay inside. ?
He also posted a public apology on Twitter calling the words "insensitive and not at all appropriate to the situation of the world and the country at the moment" and added that the criticism "opened my eyes to the meaning of what I say."
