The glitz and glamour of the Orbee Awards was overshadowed by a stirring public critique from Hollywood power couple George and Amal Clooney, reigniting a heated debate around the controversial presence of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in New York.

New York City residents seemed to applaud George Clooney for his public criticism of the Sussexes during their recent red carpet appearance. The Clooneys, known for their Hollywood glamour, hosted the second annual Orbee Awards at the New York Public Library.

 The awards, organized by the Clooney Foundation for Justice, honor courageous defenders of justice who face great risks. This year’s honorees included a Ukrainian NGO, a Congolese activist, and two Iranian journalists who ignited a women’s freedom uprising in their country.

On the red carpet, Amal Clooney stunned in a white sequin gown with a small train, complemented by a matching clutch. Her dark hair cascaded over her shoulders in luxurious waves, and her makeup accentuated her striking features. She added a touch of glitz with an ornate bracelet. Meanwhile, George Clooney sported his signature classic tuxedo, exuding the charm of a silver fox.

During the event, a reporter asked the Clooneys about their thoughts on New York City. George quickly expressed his admiration for the city, emphasizing its safety and the kindness of its people. This statement contrasted sharply with Meghan and Harry’s claim that they almost lost their lives while being chased by aggressive paparazzi on the streets of New York.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, were involved in a near-catastrophic car chase that lasted for over two hours. The couple’s spokesperson condemned the dissemination of these intrusive images, highlighting the danger they posed to all involved.

George’s recent remarks, which praised New York City, sparked anger among some New Yorkers who compared them to the incident involving Meghan and Harry. One resident expressed their frustration, stating that while they love the Clooneys for their honesty, they don’t feel the same way about Meghan and Harry.

 The resident also mentioned that New York City taxpayers have had to finance the security expenses each time the Sussexes have visited the city. This, along with the couple’s alleged tax avoidance, has further created a divide in the conversation around Harry and Meghan’s presence in the United States.

The conversation has even involved the U.S. State Department, with questions being raised about the Sussexes’ status and the expenses incurred by American taxpayers. Some argue that as residents of a republic, they shouldn’t have to foot the bill for the disgruntled prince and his wife, especially considering Harry’s lack of American citizenship and his apparent disregard for the country’s constitution. Many believe that the couple should be responsible for their own expenses, including security costs, rather than relying on government-provided services.

The Clooneys’ public criticism of the Sussexes at the Orbee Awards caused a stir among New Yorkers, highlighting the contrasting opinions about Meghan and Harry’s actions and their impact on the public. The debate extended beyond their personal lives, touching on issues of taxation and financial responsibility.
