Eva Longoria apologizes for post-election commentary; Dwayne Johnson explains his tears

Celebrities are still talking about the election following a weekend that saw Joe Biden win the 2020 presidential race.

In a post to Instagram, Dwayne Johnson explained "got a little emotional" after hearing the results Saturday.

"Manly tears, of course. I may have cried a tear or two or 10,” he said, explaining he cried because of what he felt his vote represented. "My vote represented my little daughters. My vote represented humanity. My vote represented decency... And my vote for me also represented the importance of just being a decent human being."

In an interview on MSNBC Sunday, Eva Longoria said, “The women of color showed up in a big way. Of course, you saw in Georgia what Black women have done, but Latina women were the real heroines here. Beating men in turnout in every state and voting for Biden/Harris at an average rate close to three to one.”

After being criticized for her comments, the actress, 45, apologized.

“I’m so sorry and sad to hear that my comments on MSNBC could be perceived as taking credit from Black women,” she tweeted. “When I said that Latinas were heroines in this election, I simply meant that they turned out in greater numbers and voted more progressively than LATINO MEN.”

She continued, "My wording was not clear and I deeply regret that, there is such a history in our community of anti-Blackness and I would never want to contribute to that.”

Alyssa Milano shared multiple tweets about the election Sunday, including backing the voting process and outcome.

"Any politician can say whatever they want, but the voters have spoken and given us a new president. Now, official processes will proceed as mandated by law, as states continue to count their votes, verify their election results, and send electors to DC in Dec," she wrote with the hashtag #VotersDecided.

She also discussed her reaction to Vice President-elect Kamala Harris' speech on Saturday night.

"I’ve been having a hard time trying to articulate how I felt seeing @KamalaHarris walk out on that stage last night in her suffragette white power suit. She took my breath away," Milano wrote. "I cried. They weren’t tears of heartache or fear. They were tears of hope for the future."

She continued, "They were tears of what my daughter could strive to be if she wanted to choose that path. That trail of possibility will be blazed by an extraordinary woman. Tears of love, hope and strength."

Mark Ruffalo also commented on claims of voting system "glitches."

"It’s all a sham. The whole Republican game is a sham. Say the well is poison, then poison the well," he tweeted.

Mariah Carey shared a video of people celebrating the Biden win to her song "All I Want for Christmas Is You."

"Saw this last night during our own celebratory moments! Watching this and sharing the feelings of joy and happiness with you all!! Let's remember to stay safe so we can really have the most FESTIVE Christmas yet," she wrote.

Trey Songz tweeted a praying hands emoji while sharing a post about Trump's United States Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos.

"This is a victory for the children. This one, right here," user @eXplicito63 shared, which Songz replied to. "This lady was doing everything in her power to destroy public education"
