The red carpet was filled with white roses and Time’s Up pins during the 2018 Grammy Awards on Sunday night. Everyone from Lady Gaga to Sam Smith wore a white rose as a sign of support for the Time’s Up initiative against workplace sexual harassment and assault. Others including Janelle Monáe sported a black-and-white Time’s Up pin in a show of solidarity with the initiative. A group called Voices in Entertainment came up with the idea for celebrities to wear white roses on the red carpet. “We choose the white rose because historically it stands for hope, peace, sympathy and resistance,” the group wrote in a recent letter to celebrities.
