Chris Pratt, Meghan McCain and more celebs are speaking out about Charlie Kirk’s shocking death Wednesday.

The conservative commentator died after he was shot while on stage during a stop at Utah Valley University kicking off his American Comeback Tour, just as he answered a question from an audience member about mass shootings committed by transgender people.

He was 31 years old.

Pratt posted on X, “Praying for Charlie Kirk right now, for his wife and young children, for our country. We need God’s grace. God help us.”

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy said the shooting was not an issue that should be Republican vs. Democrat.

“RIP Charlie Kirk. It doesn’t matter what your opinion is of Charlie or his politics if you don’t view this as one of the darkest days in American history than you are part of the problem,” he wrote on X,

Former “The View” host McCain shared a fiery response, and said Kirk’s shooting was not going to stop conservatives from speaking out.

“Rest in peace Charlie Kirk. The mark you have made on the world will forever be a blessing and memory,” she wrote on X. “We pray for your eternal rest with our Lord. May God bless your family always and be with your children and wife Erika.”
