Venezuela Invasion Halts Flights from Caribbean: Leonardo DiCaprio Stuck in St. Barths, Carrie Coon Can’t Make Critics Choice Awards

Share

Forget about the Venezuelans.

Because Trump invaded their country, movie and TV stars are stuck in the Caribbean. Air space is locked down, flights are in disarray.

“White Lotus” star Carrie Coon has just posted that she will miss the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday.

“One Battle After Another” star Leonardo DiCaprio is stuck on the posh posh posh island of St. Barth’s.

Some Critics Choice critics who live in Puerto Rico are unable to get on planes.

But don’t worry — plenty of stars are coming to the CCA, which airs Sunday at 7pm on USA Network and E!. So many that I don’t have enough “ink” for all of them!
