Although Billie Eilish has been facing a lot of backlash over her \u2018stolen land\u2019 comment at the Grammys 2026 speech, she has gained an equal amount of supporters. It was also pointed out that her LA home is situated on indigenous land, with many citing that she should move out and give the land to the tribe that it belongs to. Following the ongoing hatred directed towards the singer, many people have come forward with their support for the idol. This includes \u2018Avengers\u2019 star Mark Ruffalo as well.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"3\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Mark Ruffalo slams Kevin O\u2019Leary about Billie Eilish\u2019s Grammy speech<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Taking the argument to a popular social media platform, Ruffalo commented about all of the criticism and hatred that Billie Eilish has been receiving for the past week. Specifically, he addressed the criticism that the businessman, TV personality, and \u2018Marty Supreme\u2019 actor Kevin O\u2019Leary made about the singer.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"9\"\/>Ruffalo, who is best known for playing the role of the green giant Hulk in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, took to his account to call out the TV personality for his comments. He stated, \u201cKevin O\u2019Leary, why don\u2019t you STFU. It\u2019s hilarious. You will go on any show and talk shit about any number of things and smugly expect us to listen to you, but you will dig into a real artist that dwarfs anything you dream of doing for actually saying something that resonates with 100\u2019s of millions of people the world over. It\u2019s astounding the fantasy double standard Kevin O\u2019Leary lives in.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>Ruffalo further sarcastically commented about how his \u2018Marty Supreme\u2019 role was accurate to his personality. O\u2019Leary played the role of a cutthroat businessman, Milton Rockwell. The businessman had earlier commented about celebrities getting into politics.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Kevin O\u2019Leary\u2019s comments about Billie Eilish<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>During his interview on \u2018America Reports\u2019 this past Tuesday, the \u2018Shark Tank\u2019 judge commented on his thoughts about Billie Eilish\u2019s speech at the Grammys. The singer has been at the forefront of criticism online after she commented, \u201cno one is illegal on stolen land\u201d in relation to ICE\u2019s crackdown on immigrants in the US. <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>O\u2019Leary commented, \u201cHalf the people in politics that you piss off won\u2019t buy your music anymore. Don\u2019t be stupid about it, but hey, they don\u2019t listen. It\u2019s the first lesson 101 for celebrity: As you rise up, whether you\u2019re a film star, a music star [or] whatever, shut your mouth and just entertain.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>On the work front with Mark Ruffalo<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The Oscar-nominated actor had reportedly confirmed that he will not be one of the many returning stars to MCU\u2019s \u2018Avengers: Doomsday.\u2019 The news had hit fans, with many wondering whether he had been fired from the franchise or not. However, in a recent interview with News Movement, Ruffalo squashed all rumors about the matter and set them aside. When he was asked about the same, the actor replied by saying many people have been commenting about it, but he does not think that he has been fired from the franchise.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>The actor is currently promoting his latest film \u2018Crime 101\u2019 in which he co-stars with Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry. He will also next be seen in \u2018Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u2019, reprising his role as Dr Bruce Banner\/Hulk.<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billie Eilish faced backlash for her Grammy speech about &#8216;stolen land,&#8217; sparking debate.
