Garcelle Beauvais Speaks Out Against Racist Conspiracy Theories


Garcelle Beauvais has recently spoken out against harmful conspiracy theories targeting her community. The actress, producer, and star of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills expressed her frustration in a video shared on social media. She condemned the false claims spread by former President Donald Trump and his 2024 running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, about Haitian immigrants in Springfield allegedly eating pets. During a presidential debate on September 10, Trump made these baseless accusations, which were promptly debunked by fact-checkers and moderators. Despite this, Vance has continued to promote these misleading claims.

Beauvais, who hails from Saint-Marc, Haiti, and moved to the U.S. at age 7, emphasized that combating racism and hate is crucial. She criticized the spread of these lies as deeply hurtful and dangerous, leading to increased tensions and even bomb threats. She urged her community to take action by registering and voting, highlighting the importance of unity and active participation in democracy.

The actress has a history of dealing with public scrutiny and drama, both personally and through her role on Real Housewives. Her memoir, Love Me As I Am: My Journey from Haiti to Hollywood to Happiness, details her experiences and resilience. Beauvais remains a prominent figure in entertainment, with credits including The Jamie Foxx Show, NYPD Blue, Coming to America, and Spider-Man: Homecoming. She is set to return for the 14th season of RHOBH and continues to work on producing projects in collaboration with Lifetime.

Her call to action came on the same day as a second attempted assassination of Trump at his golf club, highlighting a period of intense political and social turmoil. Beauvais’s message resonates as she advocates for truth and justice while encouraging her community to participate actively in shaping a better future.
