Earlier this year, Amanda Seyfried publicly criticized Charlie Kirk, the right-wing activist who was shot and killed during a public speaking event at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10.

“He was hateful,” the Mean Girls star commented under an Instagram Reel that compiled some of Kirk’s offensive quotes about Black women, immigrants, and transgender people, just to highlight a few.

The comment obviously gained a lot of attention, and a couple of days later, Amanda followed up by providing some extra context in a longer statement posted to her Instagram page. “We are forgetting the nuance of humanity,” she wrote. “I can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric and ALSO very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable in every way imaginable. No one should have to experience this level of violence. This country is grieving too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we agree on that at least?”

Now, three months later, Amanda is firmly standing by her words, telling Who What Wear in a new cover interview: “I’m not fucking apologizing.”

“I mean, for fuck’s sake, I commented on one thing,” she recalled. “I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual, and I’m free to have an opinion, of course.”

Amanda also discussed the decision to post a longer message explaining the comment at the time, saying, “I was able to give some clarity, and it was about getting my voice back because I felt like it had been stolen and recontextualized—which is what people do, of course.”

Though Amanda’s stance is sure to rile up some folks, her latest comments have already been met with a wave of praise online. One post reacting to the quotes with over 110,000 likes reads: “Thank god someone with a fucking spine.”

Amanda Seyfried Won’t ‘F—ing Apologize’ Over Controversial Comments

Amanda Seyfriedis standing by her comments following the Charlie Kirk incident. The actress got her share of flak, with some believing an online post she made was inappropriate. Many called for the Academy Award nominee to apologize in the aftermath.

The actress, however, isn’t backing down and isn’t showing remorse for what she posted. “I’m not f*cking apologizing for that,” she said in a recent interview. The CEO of Turning Point USA was assassinated in September at a rally in Utah.

Amanda Seyfried called Charlie Kirk “hateful” the day after his death

His political views polarized people and some didn’t hold back their opinions about Charlie even after his death. Amanda called him “hateful” on Instagram the day after the tragedy. Months later, she continues to back what she claimed. “I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes,” she told Who What Wear.

She clarified her stance on the controversial online comment about him. Amanda noted that she can get angry about misogyny and racist rhetoric while also believing Charlie’s death was disturbing. She added that the country is grieving too many violent and senseless deaths. According to her, they should be having a spirited discourse rather than a vicious back-and-forth online.

Amanda is far from the only celebrity who faced some controversy following the assassination. Jimmy Kimmel was temporarily suspended by ABC for sharing a controversial viewpoint on Charlie. Meanwhile, Kristin Chenoweth faced some backlash for expressing how upset she was over his death.

Charlie’s widow, Erika, has said she doesn’t need an apology from the likes of Jimmy for what they said, despite Vice President JD Vance believing he should say sorry. For her part, Erika has forgiven the man arrested in connection with her husband’s shooting.
