The
US
Supreme
Court
has
overturned
its
historic
Roe
v
Wade
abortion
rights
decision
in
its
50th
year.
The
decision
has
led
to
widespread
criticism
from
American
celebrities
including
Taylor
Swift,
Selena
Gomez,
Stephen
King,
and
many
others
who
took
to
their
social
media
accounts
to
voice
their
concern.
Pop
star
Taylor
Swift
said
that
she
is
terrified
and
added,
"I'm
absolutely
terrified
that
this
is
where
we
are
--
that
after
so
many
decades
of
people
fighting
for
women's
rights
to
their
own
bodies,
today's
decision
has
stripped
us
of
that."
Singer
Selena
Gomez
tweeted,
"Watching
a
Constitutional
right
be
stripped
away
is
horrific.
A
woman
should
have
the
right
to
CHOOSE
what
she
wants
to
do
with
her
own
body.
End
of
story."
Taking
to
Twitter,
actor
Halle
Berry
revealed
that
she
is
"outraged" and
added,
"What
the
supreme
court
has
done
is
b*******.
Something
has
to
be
done!
Guns
have
more
rights
than
women.
Stop
this
war
on
women
and
keep
your
laws
off
of
our
bodies.
We
have
to
ban
together
&
NOT
accept
this!
We
can't
just
post
about
it,
we
must
DO
SOMETHING
about
it."
Jessica
Biel
took
to
Instagram
Stories
and
wrote,
"I
am
enraged.
You
should
be
too.
What
happened
today
is
not
only
a
disgusting
step
backward
for
women
-
undermining
our
ability
to
make
decisions
about
our
own
bodies...
but
it's
also
dangerous.
You
didn't
ban
abortion.
You've
banned
safe
access
to
abortion."
Oscar-winning
actress
Patricia
Arquette
was
equally
unequivocal.
She
wrote
in
a
tweet,
"This
Supreme
Court
is
an
absolute
disaster.
From
giving
people
the
right
to
carry
guns
to
taking
away
women's
rights
of
autonomy
over
their
own
bodies.
We
weren't
being
reactive,
we
saw
it
coming."
Thundered
multiple
award-winning
actress
Ariana
DeBose,
"Yeah,
ain't
NOBODY
telling
me
what
I
can
&
can't
do
with
my
body.
Ain't
nobody
telling
me
who
I
get
to
love
or
marry
for
that
matter.
America
...
you're
in
for
the
fight
of
your
life."
Take
a
look
at
more
reactions,
I’m
absolutely
terrified
that
this
is
where
we
are
-
that
after
so
many
decades
of
people
fighting
for
women’s
rights
to
their
own
bodies,
today’s
decision
has
stripped
us
of
that.

According
to
an
AFP
report,
the
US
court's
ruling
now
says
that
individual
states
can
restrict
or
ban
the
procedure
themselves.
"The
Constitution
does
not
confer
a
right
to
abortion.
The
authority
to
regulate
abortion
is
returned
to
the
people
and
their
elected
representatives," the
court
said
in
a
6-3
ruling.
