Public relations firms hired by the Department of Health and Human Services vetted the political views of hundreds of celebrities, including Aguilera, Lopez, and Black, for a health education advertising campaign on the coronavirus outbreak. That's according to documents released Thursday by a House committee.

Director Judd Apatow believes Trump “does not have the intellectual capacity to run as president,” according to a list of more than 200 celebrities compiled by one of the firms. “I have ordered a strategic review of this public health education campaign that will be led by our top public health and communications experts to determine whether the campaign serves important public health purposes,” Azar told the subcommittee, which is investigating the federal government’s response to the coronavirus outbreak. Because public health policy around the coronavirus pandemic has become so politically polarized, it’s unclear how well a confidence-building campaign from the government would play. And Trump has alienated much of the medical establishment with his dismissive comments about basic public health measures, such as wearing masks. Antony and Quaid were among just a few celebrities who were approved for the campaign, according to the documents.

San Antonio author Shea Serrano, who is not shy about expressing his distaste for President Donald Trump on social media, recently joined a Joe Biden and Kamala Harris panel with George Lopez to urge Latino men to vote. On Tuesday, the two were featured on the virtual roundtable series, "Luchadores con Biden," a segment that focuses on Hispanic men. The author said he has family members who are working every day and going to school during the pandemic. Serrano concluded the video by delivering a message to those who are not sure who to vote for in the election.

Comedian George Lopez has come under fire for leaving an inappropriate comment on an Instagram post about President Trump. The pop culture Instagram account Chicano World Star posted erroneous claims that Iran had an $80 million bounty on Mr. Trump.
