Oprah and Stevie Nicks are among several celebrities who have been criticized for how they have responded to the devastating wildfires that occurred on Maui.
In the wake of the Lahaina fire on the island of Maui, local L.A. restaurants are rallying to support Lahaina by hosting fundraisers and donating proceeds from menu items.“My truth was that I wanted a house here just so I could spend time in Lahaina walking the streets; visiting the art galleries — sitting on the rock wall,” Nicks’ message continued. “Most all the opals I wear on my fingers came from a store on Front Street.
One commenter responding to Nicks’ statement wrote on Instagram, “Oh Stevie, love you but Native Hawaiians lost their homes for generations to come, your niece, at best, vacation was ruined, this is not what you should’ve posted.” “Lmaooo is this FOR REAL? You’re admitting to colonizing an island and sad your rich family’s vacation got ruined?” someone else wrote.
Another person in the comments section expressed disappointment with Nicks, writing, “Stevie, I love you, but Native Hawaiian’s have been begging people who are not Indigenous to Hawaii to stop moving there and vacationing there.”
