Meryl Streep has some concerns about growing anti-immigration sentiments in America. And while her concerns may largely have their roots in national politics, her recent statements at the 2017 Golden Globes awards ceremony took a few broader swipes at other parts of culture.
Streep, speaking about the high numbers of “foreigners” in Hollywood, suggested that if we “kick them all out,” people would have nothing to watch except football and MMA. Obviously this isn’t a sentiment that has made fans, fighters, and figures in the MMA industry very happy.
Bellator’s Scott Coker was quick to respond to Streep’s comments, as were many other fighters on social media.
