Josh Gad wants everyone to know that it’s okay to feel emotional in these uncertain times.
The Frozen 2 actor recently shared a video of himself crying on social media, telling his followers, “It’s okay to cry.”
“I wanted to cry for a second,” Josh said in the video. “And I was gonna do it by myself and then I thought, ‘You know what? It’s important for everybody to understand that we’re all going through so much uncertainty right now.’ We’re going to get through it and it’s hard and I’m emotional because I hate seeing our kids deprived of their normal lifestyles and not being able to understand why all of this is happening so quickly.”
“But I’m also emotional because of all the incredible things that so many of you out there are doing on a daily basis, and I know it’s a struggle right now for so many people,” he continues. “And I just wanted to say I love you all and I’m thinking of you all and we’ll get through this.”
Josh got plenty of love and supportive messages from fans and celeb friends alike in the comments.
“Amen brother. 🙏,” Zachary Levi wrote.
Michelle Monaghan commented, “Love your heart so much brother.”
Bryce Dallas Howard thanked him for sharing his thoughts, writing, “thank you ♥️♥️”
Ashley Greene sent him some love: “❤️❤️❤️ Sending love my friend ❤️❤️❤️”
Meanwhile, Josh’s Frozen co-star Kristen Bell, and her hubby Dax Shepard, are taking extra precaution when it comes to keeping their families safe amid growing concerns over the spread of coronavirus.
Kristen went on Instagram to share a video of her and her kids dancing and serenading Dax as he self-isolates for a few days after returning home from a trip.
“@daxshepard got back from travelling on monday. To be cautious, i asked him to stay in our friend empty apt for a few days to make sure he had to no symptoms,” Kristen shared. “Today we were missing him so much, we did the only logical thing we could do. Danced outside his window to a @bensplatt and @dearevanhansen serenade.”
Kristen has been brightening up our feeds with light-hearted posts about social distancing, as well as some pretty sound advice on parenting amid school closures and how to help the community.
She’s also spreading some cheer by donating to No Kid Hungry amid the coronavirus outbreak. According to No Kid Hungry, the actress and her family donated a total of $150,007.96.
“NKH has always been there for kids who need them. They work tirelessly to provide food for the hungry bellys all over this country. I encourage anyone with the means to share to donate as well, any amount helps, so we can get through this together,” Kristen shared, explaining, “(The reason the number is odd, is because when my kids overheard me making the donation, they asked if they could also donate the money from thier piggy bank. I couldnt have been prouder to add that extra, and important 7 dollars and 96 cents.😍”
