A number of Latinx musicians have expressed their solidarity and support for immigrant communities via social media in the wake of immigration raids that have resulted in the arrest of 330 people in Southern California and the Central Coast. In a lengthy Instagram video posted Saturday, TV personality and two-time Grammy-nominated singer Chiquis held back tears as she addressed the raids and reminded her fans to 'treat people like you want to be treated.' 'United we stand, divided we fall apart, you guys,' she said. 'If all humans would to get together and be kinder and hold each other's hands and push people a little bit more in a positive way, uplift people, we would be so powerful.' Música Mexicana artist Ivan Cornejo shared in an Instagram post Tuesday that his father had been granted amnesty by the Reagan administration during the '80s.

Ivan Cornejo Shows His Support Amid Anti-ICE Protests: ‘Speechless at the Inhumanity'
As protests erupt across the country against the Trump administration's raids and mass arrests of migrants by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), música Mexicana singer Ivan Cornejo showed his support for his community by helping raise funds for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles (CHIRLA). 'In 1986, my dad was one of the 3 million undocumented immigrants to receive amnesty from Ronald Reagan, allowing him to have legal status in the U.S. President Reagan and other former presidents have recognized the value that immigrants bring to this country,' began Cornejo in his statement posted to social media on Tuesday. 'We have and continue to contribute not only economically but culturally and have been doing so forever.' More from Rolling Stone Ivan Cornejo Gets Fans Into Their Feelings During Future of Music Showcase Night Three How Ivan Cornejo Became Música Mexicana's Heartbreak Kid Benson Boone, Megan Moroney, Ivan Cornejo, and Rema to Play Rolling Stone's Future of Music Showcase at SXSW 'America was built on the backs of immigrants like my father, and now we're being targeted, undermining America's core values,' continued the singer-songwriter. 'Words cannot express the sorrow that I feel for my community. I see my mom, my dad and myself in many of you.' Cornejo said he was 'speechless at the inhumanity that is affecting our Mexican and Hispanic communities.' He added that there have been 'closed-door discussions' over whether speaking out has put this team at risk,' because 'this administration is not holding back' and 'indiscriminately using measures never seen before.' The artist said that since the launch of his Mirada Tour Parte 2, his team and fans have raised funds for CHIRLA, and linked to its website 'where you can learn about your rights and how to get involved.' 'I'm with you during these difficult times, and I will continue to support you all through my art,' said the singer. Multiple artists including Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong, Tyler, the Creator, and more have spoken out against President Donald Trump's ICE raids and deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles over the weekend. While accepting the BET Award for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist, Doechii addressed the anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles, where the Awards were being held. 'I feel it's my responsibility as an artist to use this moment to speak up for all oppressed people, for Black people, for Latino people, for trans people, for the people in Gaza,' she said on stage that night. 'We all deserve to live in hope and not in fear. And I hope we stand together, my brothers and my sisters, against hate — and we protest against it.' Finneas said that he was tear-gassed while at a 'peaceful protest' in downtown L.A. on Sunday. 'Tear-gassed almost immediately at the very peaceful protest downtown — they're inciting this,' he wrote in a post included in a series from his Instagram stories. In one from earlier in the day, Finneas wrote, 'Fuck ICE.' The protests spreading throughout the country are pushing back against the inhumane tactics the federal government has implemented to target immigrant communities. In recent weeks, ICE agents have surprised migrants at immigration hearings, taken infants out of their mothers arms while conducting an arrest, and begun carrying out large scale round ups that — by the admission of Trump's 'immigration czar' Tom Homan — arrest migrants without any criminal records.

Kristin Cavallari Talks Podcasting and Moon Boots in Glossy Black Pumps On ‘The Tonight Show'
Kristin Cavallari sat down for an interview on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,' which aired yesterday on NBC. Cavallari dished about why her podcast tour was the scariest thing she's ever done and discussed her E! docuseries 'Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour.' Later on in the show, Cavallari challenged Fallon to a moon boot workout. David Spade and Ivan Cornejo were also on the show. More from Footwear News Olivia Munn Picks Black Pointed-Toe Shoes for New York Press Day Tiffany Haddish Goes Thigh High in Black Dress and Glossy Pumps at Fashion Trust U.S. The fashion designer's show look centered around a pair of sleek black pumps. Simple in nature, the chosen pair featured glossy patent leather uppers accompanied by elongated pointed toes and leather soles that offered a sturdy, non-slip feel. Stiletto heels standing at 3 to 4 inches rounded out the set, giving Cavallari a subtle boost. Black pumps are a must-have for celebrities and civilians alike. The style is exceedingly versatile, partnering well with everything from denim to dresses. Dressed down, the black pumps are cool and effortless. Dressed up, black pumps work as a chic accessory that instantly elevates any ensemble. Similar pumps to Cavallari's own can be shopped via top brands like Christian Louboutin, Khatie, Alaia, Jimmy Choo, Balenciaga and Gucci, among others. The television personality opted for a monochrome look, matching her shoes with a black dress. Cavallari's look was form-fitted and ruched, worn off the shoulders for a peekaboo effect. Her jewelry was minimalistic and gold, likely from her own brand Uncommon James. For Cavallari, contemporary styles are a constant in her shoe rotation. The 'Balancing in Heels' author is often seen in Chelsea, lace-up and Western boots by Jimmy Choo, Bottega Veneta and Isabel Marant. Her off-duty rotation also features Veronica Beard mules and Alexander McQueen sneakers. When it comes to red carpets, however, Cavallari wears strappy sandals, mules and platforms from top brands such as Larroudé, Gucci and Schutz.
