Hilary Duff Embarrassed for U.S. Response to COVID-19, Jokes She's Running for President

Hilary Duff is calling out her fellow citizens who aren’t protective wearing masks amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The 32-year-old singer and actress took to Instagram on Saturday (July 4) to express her frustration after driving by a party in Los Angeles where people did not have their faces covered.

“Drove by a raging house party on Mulholland. A–holes. No masks (of course). Girls in bathing suits and louboutins waiting to get in like a line at a club,” Duff captioned a series of family photos. “California is in bad shape (in so many ways) but doesn’t everyone think we all want to go out freely and travel and enjoy summer.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has noted that people in the Golden State — including cities in L.A. County — could be issued a fine if caught not wearing a mask in public, according to CNN.

Duff went on to note that she believes many Americans “don’t care about each other” and joked that she may give Kanye West, who recently announced plans to run for president, a run for his money in the upcoming race.

“Other countries have come together in a beautiful way to contain or be Covid free. It’s embarrassing that we are worse than ever because people need to party and Karens won’t wear masks!” she wrote. “Oh and I’m running for President.”

We took two walks today. Took a family nap. Took a drive. Drove by a raging house party on Mulholland. Assholes. No masks (of course). Girls in bathing suits and louboutins waiting to get in like a line at a club After @matthewkoma and I told Banks she’s too cool to ever need to do that we were steaming…California is in bad shape (in so many ways) but doesn’t everyone think we all want to go out freely and travel and enjoy summer‍♀️ It really seems like Americans just don’t care about each other…somehow this pandemic has turned into a political stance between parties…that’s a head scratcher for me. Other countries have come together in a beautiful way to contain or be Covid free. It’s embarrassing that we are worse than ever because people need to party and Karens won’t wear masks! Oh and I’m running for President.
