Je suis Charlie.
After masked gunmen left 12 people dead at the Paris office of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo on Jan. 7, people around the world expressed their solidarity with the victims, who were targeted in part for the cartoons they published. Some celebrities chose to express their own solidarity with the victims and their support of freedom of speech at the Golden Globes on Jan. 11.
George Clooney wore a "Je suis Charlie" button on his lapel, while wife Amal carried a custom bag in support of France.
