Some celebrities will have to get to packing if they plan on following through with their claims of leaving America now that Donald Trump has been elected as the 45th president of the United States.
It's unclear how serious some people were when they said they'd move out of the country, but here are a few of the stars who made the threats publicly during the election season:
Lena Dunham
The "Girls" creator and star has made several threats about leaving the country since Trump began his road to the White House.
Bryan Cranston
On "The Bestseller Experiment" podcast, the "Breaking Bad" star said he would "absolutely...definitely move" if Trump were elected.
Cher
At a Hillary Clinton rally, Cher threatened that she would "leave the planet" and if Trump won the presidency. In a tweet, the singer said she would move to Jupiter.
Stephen King
The author threatened a move to Canada in an interview with The Washington Post.
"(A Trump presidency) scares me to death to the point where I've actually thought of moving to Canada," he said.
Barbra Streisand
Barbra Steisand told Australia's "60 Minutes" of Trump's candidacy, "(I) can't believe it. I'm either coming to your country, if you'll let me in, or Canada."
George Lopez
Lopez told TMZ, "If (Trump) wins, he won't have to worry about immigration. We'll all go back."
Raven-Symoné
The former co-host of "The View" claimed, "My confession for this election is if any Republican gets (elected), I'm going to move to Canada with my entire family. I already have my ticket," on a February episode of her show.
Amber Rose
In March, the outspoken "Dancing with the Stars" season 23 cast member told US Weekly, "I can't even think about it! I'm moving, I'm out! I can't. And I am taking my son with me! I would be devastated, to be honest with you."
Keegan-Michael Key
The comedian and actor told TMZ in an interview that he would move to Canada if Trump was elected.
"It’s like, 10 minutes from Detroit -- that's where I’m from. My mom lives there. It'd make her happy, too."
Spike Lee
The director once joked to Vanity Fair that if Trump won, he would be "moving back to the republic of Brooklyn, New York."
Actor Omari Hardwick, Whoopi Goldberg, Ne-Yo, Chelsea Handler and Samuel L. Jackson are among other celebrities who have made comments about moving to different countries when faced with a Trump presidency.
