Stars are supporting the Time's Up movement again at the 2019 Golden Globes [2], this time while wearing Time's Up bracelets and ribbons. Attendees, including host Andy Samberg, Idris Elba, and Rachel Brosnahan [3], wore the accessories around their wrists for the award show in Beverly Hills.

The ribbons and bracelets, while a demonstration of continued solidarity, are also supporting the new Time's Up x2 campaign [4], representing the second year of the initiative. They were designed by Arianne Phillips and read TIMESUPx2 on them.

Time's Up, as a movement, was created in 2018 to demand fair, safe, and dignified workplaces for all women and piggybacked off the #MeToo movement that specifically targeted putting a stop to sexual harassment. In honor of the Time's Up movement last year, celebrities wore all black at the Golden Globes [6] and Time's Up pins at the Oscars [7].

In its second wave, Time's Up x2 aims to become an even bigger movement, causing a disruption in society to seek equality. In a recent post to its website [8], those behind the movement wrote, "We won't stop fighting until there is gender balance in leadership and all women have the opportunity to reach their full potential at work . . . Everything will change when we have more women, especially women of color and women from other traditionally underrepresented groups, making decisions. Period."
