After Twitter temporarily
suspended Rose McGowan’s Twitter account this
week, celebs rallied around her to get
#WomenBoycottTwitter trending.
Twitter suspended the 44-year-old star’s account for
violating its terms and policies amidst her tweets against Harvey Weinstein and
Ben Affleck. Twitter restored Rose’s Twitter account on Thursday, and Rose
continued to share her story. She tweeted out “At midnight we
RISE.”

Chrissy Teigen also shared her
strong beliefs on the matter saying, “Ladies. Let’s do this.
#WomenBoycottTwitter. Not because of hate but because I love this platform and
know it can be better.” She followed up with another tweet that read, “Tomorrow. No secret timeline
checking, no tweets, no clicking the bluebird square. They need to see we
matter.”

Kathy Griffin also provided
clarification on what this Twitter boycott can do.
“Ok

@Twitter will make less $$ b/c of fewer clicks. I’m in.”
