Diddy posted an emoji of praying hands in reaction to the senseless death, while Viola Davis put the racial imbalance of the situation and others like it into perspective.

'This is what it means to be Black in America. Tried. Convicted. Killed for being Black,' the Oscar-winner said. 'We are dictated by hundreds of years of policies that have restricted our very existence and still have to continue to face modern day lynchings.

'Here's the thing......America will never be great until we can figure out a way for it to work for EVERYBODY!!!'

'My heart can’t take it, seeing what’s happened to #GeorgeFloyd,' Ciara said. 'This is eerily similar to the death of #EricGarner. There has to be a stopping point in the process of arresting someone. It’s all senseless.

Cardi B wrote on social media: 'Enough is enough! What will it take? A civil war? A new president? Violent riots? It’s tired ! I’m tired ! The country is tired!

 'You don’t put fear in people when you do this you just show how coward YOU ARE ! And how America is really not the land of the free!'
