Gaby Espino has been active on Twitter showing her support for her country: "Venezuelan friends, my prayers and thoughts are with you. I hope that peace returns soon!" The Bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis has been actively outspoken on both Twitter and Facebook. "This is HOW our NATIONAL guard protects Venezuela," he wrote, with a photo of guards assaulting a protester with guns.

Meanwhile baseball star Pablo Sandoval wrote "From a distance, I join the chain of prayers for my beloved Venezuela! Let God grant us Tolerance, Peace and Unity."
