Rosanna Arquette Says the Oscars Shouldn’t Be Canceled Amid L.A. Fires: ‘It’s About Using Art to Rebuild’


Rosanna Arquette discusses how the Oscars should hold a ceremony amid L.A. wildfires

With the 2025 Oscars on the horizon, “Desperately Seeking Susan” star Rosanna Arquette has proposed a bold and heartfelt idea: This year’s ceremony should be transformed into a platform for hope and healing. “I’d love to see the Sag awards and Oscar and Grammys this year turn the shows into telethons to raise money for the community, the city of Los Angeles, for families who’ve lost their homes and pets and life’s memories and for our beloved fire fighters that have saved lives,” she wrote. Though celebrities are getting considerable media attention, the disaster has affected people of every income level, including hundreds of Hollywood production workers who have already been hit hard by strikes and COVID.
